Abstract
Provided is a solder material which enables a growth of an oxide film to be inhibited. A solder ball which is a solder material is composed of a solder layer and a covering layer covering the solder layer. The solder layer is spherical and is composed of a metal material containing an alloy including Sn content of 40% and more. Otherwise the solder layer is composed of a metal material including Sn content of 100%. In the covering layer, a SnO film is formed outside the solder layer, and a SnOfilm is formed outside the SnO film. A thickness of the covering layer is preferably more than 0 nm and equal to or less than 4.5 nm. Additionally, a yellow chromaticity of the solder ball is preferably equal to or less than 5.7.
