6.3. 3-Point Bend Test

In the 3-point bend test the force was applied to the substrate on the side opposite to that of the resistor (see Figures 16 and 17), and the substrate deformation was monitored and measured at the top of the resistor body. The extent of the deformation depends on the force exerted on the resistor through the solder joint.

In Figurę 18 the strain gauge measurements of deformation are plotted as a function of the assembly displacement at the mid point between the resistor's soldered joints. The test specimens had been soldered using SnAgCu alloy and had not been subjected to any thermal cycling. This exercise was carried out to investigate the variation of deformation with time afler 20 pm displacement steps, each with a dwell time of 10 seconds. The individual displacements are shown along the horizontal axis, whilst the vertical steps represent the amounts of time-dependent deformation after each displacement step. It is elear that after a displacement of only 60 pm the curve takes a step-like shape, indicating a drift in deformation i.e. a time-dependent (creep) behaviour during the 10 seconds dwell period. It follows that irrespective of the thermal cycling
