ABSTRACT:
It is suppressed that a whisker occurs on a lead for external connection.A lead for external connection is formed of the alloy (42Alloy) of Fe and Ni, and a plating film which includes alloy of Sn and Cu is formed on the surface. Next, using a heat-treat furnace, the heat treatment at the temperature beyond melting-point T0of the plating film is performed, and the plating film is melted. At this time, the temperature beyond T0is held for 20 seconds or more. The grain boundary of the plating film can be vanished by the above-mentioned heat treatment. Hereby, the internal stress of the plating film can be eased, and the generation of the whisker can be suppressed.
