Dynamic voltage signal across solder joints during mechanical vibration test was monitored and collected real-timely with a self-designed data acquisition system. Failure process of solder joint was studied by processing and analyzing data. In the paper, lifetime of solder joint was also compared by changing solder joint location, solder joint composition and vibration acceleration. Results indicated that voltage across solder joints kept at about 0.14v from 0s to 40s, which indicated that crack of solder joint did not form. Voltage of solder joint suddenly rose to 0.45v between 44.2s and 45.2s, which illustrated crack initiation and growth rapidly. In addition, lifetime of solder joint on the edge of test board was about 4.5 times longer than that of solder joint in the center of test board. It was found that with vibration acceleration from 20g to 25g increase of 25%, lifetime of solder joint decreased from 980s to 105s with 89%.
