Abstract

The melting of die-bonding solder material is prevented even when soldering a surface-mount component formed using the die-bonding solder material on a printed circuit board using a mounting solder material. The surface-mount component formed using (Sn—Sb)-based solder material having high melting point as the solder material for die pad, the (Sn—Sb)-based solder material containing Cu not more than a predetermined quantity of Cu constituent and a main ingredient thereof being Sn, is soldered on a board terminal portion of a circuit board using (Sn—Ag—Cu—Bi)-based solder material as the mounting solder material with the solder material being applied on the terminal portion. The melting of die-bonding solder material is prevented even at the heating temperature (240 degrees C. or less) of a reflow furnace.
