Soldering Recommendation for soldering method is noted below. lReflow soldering Precautions and recommendations are described below. lPlease inquire with us when you use the different conditions. lPlease measure a temperature of terminations and study the solderability for every type of board before using. Rising temperature I Preheating Rising temperature II Main heating Gradual cooling The normal to Preheating temperature 30 s to 60 s 140 C to 160 C 60 s to 120 s Preheating to 200 C 20 s to 40 s (cf. The limits of resistance to reflow soldering heat) 200 C to 100 C 1 C/s to 4 C/s (Reflow soldering shall be within two times.) l Flow soldering We cannot recommend the flow soldering, because a solder bridge may occur owing to narrow 0.65 mm pitch. l Iron soldering 1Solder at 280 C max. and 3 seconds max. with the soldering iron tip. 2The soldering iron tip shall not touch the protective coating of the part. l Use rosin type flux. Do not use high-activity flux (the chlorine content is 0.2 wt % or more). l Allow enough preheating so that the difference of soldering temperature and temperature of surface of the part is 100 C or less. This temperature difference shall be kept in rapid cooling by immersion into solvent. l Use of more solder results in more mechanical stress to the part resulting in cracking or impaired characteristics. Avoid excessive amount of solder. 2. Cleaning l Residual flux after board washing may cause solder migration. Carefully check the status of board washing. Study the type and amount of flux to be used when no washing is made. Study the type of water-soluble flux and cleaning agent and drying condition when water washing is done. Confirm they will not cause any trouble. 3. Others l Take necessary precautions to avoid any abnormal stress caused by bending of board. l Do not use the product in dewy atmosphere.
