SnBi and SnIn solder alloys

Abstract

Some implementations of the disclosure are directed to low melting temperature (e.g., liquidus temperature below 210° C.) SnBi or Snln solder alloys. A SnBi solder alloy may consist of 2 to 60 wt % Bi; optionally, one or more of: up to 16 wt % In, up to 4.5 wt % Ag, up to 2 wt % Cu, up to 12 wt % Sb, up to 2.5 wt % Zn, up to 1.5 wt % Ni, up to 1.5 wt % Co, up to 1.5 wt % Ge, up to 1.5 wt % P, and up to 1.5 wt % Mn; and a remainder of Sn. A Snln solder alloy may consist of: 8 to 20 wt % In; optionally, one or more of: up to 12 wt % Bi, up to 4 wt % Ag, up to 5 wt % Sb, up to 3 wt % Cu, up to 2.5 wt % Zn, up to 1.5 wt % Ni, up to 1.5 wt % Co, up to 1.5 wt % Ge, up to 1.5 wt % P, and up to 1.5 wt % Mn; and a remainder of Sn.
