Abstract
A solder alloy is provided which can withstand the severe characteristics of a temperature cycle between a low temperature of −40° C. and a high temperature of 125° C., withstand an external force applied due to, for example, riding on a curb or collision with a vehicle ahead for a long period of time, and can suppress change in viscosity of a solder paste over time. In addition, a solder paste, a solder ball, and a solder preform in which the solder alloy is used; a solder joint formed through the use thereof; and an on-board electronic circuit, an ECU electronic circuit, an on-board electronic circuit device, and an ECU electronic circuit device which include this solder joint are provided. The solder alloy contains, by mass %, 1% to 4% of Ag, 0.5% to 1.0% of Cu, 1.5% to 5.5% of Bi, 1.0% to 5.3% of Sb (or greater than 5.5% and less than or equal to 7.0% of Bi and 2.0% to 5.3% of Sb), 0.01% to 0.2% of Ni, 0.0040% to 0.0250% of As, and a balance of Sn.
