at the highest temperature, Fig. 1(b) and (c). For each test (temperature profile) 5 specimens were used to validate the results.
Test conditions for the three tests are as follows.
Test 1: Temperature profile is between 0 C to 75 C with
30 minutes dwells on both sides of the curve.
Test 2: Temperature profile is between 0 C to 75 C with
30 min of 5 mini-cycles at 10 C on the hot side and 30
min dwell on the cold side.
Test 3: Temperature profile is between 0 C to 75 C with
30 min of 15 mini-cycles at 5 C on the hot side and 30
min dwell on the cold side.
The temperature cycling period was 70 min/cycle. Each test
was performed independently on five BGA packages, and each
sample was cycled 100 thermal cycles. For each sample the
Moir interferometry strain field measurement was performed
at every 20 cycles. SEM micrographs were taken at the beginning and the end of cycling. Moir fringes give us the inelastic
strain accumulation.

algorithms. The fringe patterns in this case can be written as

additional phase shift applied in order to extract the phase distribution. Since there are only three unknown variables, ,
and in Equation (4), three steps of phase shifting should be
sufficient to solve them completely. The optics setup of phase
shifting Moir is described in Fig. 2. Additional phase shifts
can be easily introduced by moving the beam splitting grating

where the corresponding grating position is 0, 0.104 m, 0.208
m, 0.312 m respectively. The example fringe in Fig. 3 is of a
2.9 mm 6.3 mm area. The deformation sensitivity of the last
image is 29.8 nm, i.e., each fringe represents 29.8 nm relative
deformation. Besides the simple four-step method, there exist
many other phase shifting algorithms, such as 3 3, 7 steps,
SchwilderHariharan, Angel and Wizinowich (2 1) and Carr
etc. Different algorithms have their own advantages and disadvantages in terms of resistance to phase shifting error (vibration,
phase miscalibration, detector nonlinearity and stray light, for
instance), as well as the cost of extra instruments and the algo-

The results indicate that traditional industry standard temperature profile induces higher inelastic strain than test temperature
profiles with fluctuation during the dwell time. The difference is
more pronounced between test 1 and test 3. Moreover, the differences become more distinct as the number of cycles increases.
At the end of 100 cycles, the inelastic strain level reaches an
asymptotic value for test 2 and test 3 while test 1 curve have a
much larger positive slope.
Fig. 6(b)(f) show the inelastic strain accumulation during
thermal cycling for solder joints 3 and 6. Strain is the largest in
joint 1 (outer edge joint), hence failure usually initiates at joint
1, for the configuration given in Fig. 4. Fig. 7(a)(c) shows the
averaged shear strain distribution for each test at 20 cycles and
100 cycles. It is obvious that the shear strain distribution curves
at 20 cycles and 100 cycles have a very similar shape, which
indicates a similar distribution trend. The factors affecting the
distribution of the stress and strai
