1. INTRODUCTION
This specification covers the requirements for application of CFP Receptacle Connectors. The CFP connector
assembly is a 74--position, 0.8 mm pitch, right--angle surface mount connector. A connector cover assembly,
that also provides a positive stop for the CFP transceiver and EMI isolation for the connector assembly,
protects this assembly. Threaded holes in the connector cover assembly hold the installed CFP transceiver in
place once installed. CFP guide rails roughly align the transceiver with the connector as it is inserted. The CFP
external bracket and backer plates roughly align the CFP transceiver to the guide rails as it is inserted through
the bezel or front panel, and block EMI emissions from escaping the cabinet when the CFP port is in use.
When corresponding with Tyco Electronics Personnel, use the terminology provided in this specification to
facilitate your inquiries for information. Basic terms and features of this product are provided in Figure 1.

3.6. Solder Paste Characteristics
SAlloy type for tin--lead solder shall be 63 Sn/37 Pb, 60 Sn/40 Pb, or 62 Sn/36 Pb/2 Ag
SAlloy type for lead--free solder shall be compatible with pure tin or gold; for example,
SAC305 (96.5 Sn/3 Ag/0.5 Cu) or SAC405 (95.5 Sn/4 Ag/0.5 Cu)
SFlux incorporated in the paste shall be rosin, mildly active (RMA) type
SPaste will be at least 80% solids by volume
SMesh designation --200 to +325 (74 to 44 square micron openings, respectively)
SMinimum viscosity of screen print shall be 5x10% cp (centipoise)
SMinimum viscosity of stencil print shall be 7.5x10% cp (centipoise)
3.7. Solder Volume
Minimum solder volume (V) (before curing) for each circuit pad is calculated by multiplying the pad length (L)
by the pad width (W) by the stencil thickness (T): 1.4 mm (L) x 0.35 mm (W) x 0.15 mm (T) = 0.074 mm3(V).
Solder volume for each connector must be 0.074 mm3per contact solder tine.
Solder volume may vary depending on solder paste composition.
3.8. Solder Paste Thickness
Solder paste thickness for the connector contact solder tines must be at least 0.15 mm.
3.9. Stencil
The stencil aperture is determined by the circuit pad size and stencil thickness. It may be any shape as long as
it prevents solder bridging from one pad to another. Generally, a thinner stencil will need a larger aperture to
maintain the given volume of solder paste. The stencil should be 0.15 mm thick.
3.10. Solder Mask
When soldering, a solder mask is recommended between all circuit pads to minimize solder bridging between
pads. The mask must not exceed the height of the pad. If a trace is run between adjacent pads on the pc
board, a solder mask must be applied over the trace to prevent bridging and wicking of solder away from the
connector contact solder tines. The mask most suitable is Liquid Photo Imageable.
All traces must be covered by solder mask in the solder deposit area. Exposed traces could cause bridging and create
a short, or wick solder away from the solder tines, producing a weak solder joint.
3.11. Connector Assembly Placement
Connectors should be handled only by the housing to avoid deformation, contamination, or damage to the contact
solder tines.
The connector must be soldered to the host pc board before seating the connector cover assembly. The soldering
process will cause damage to the connector cover assembly.
A. Registration
The connector contact solder tines must be aligned with matching circuit pads and alignment posts aligned
with matching holes before placing the connector on the host pc board.
B. Position
Optimally, the contact solder tines should be centered on the host pc board circuit pads. However, a slight
misalignment is permissible as shown in Figure 2.

C. Seating
Because the connector alignment posts are for clearance and fit only, the force required to seat the
connector is minimal. Apply only that force necessary to seat the contact solder tines into the top surface
of the solder paste. The alignment posts must be inserted into the host pc board holes. See Figure 3.

3.12. Soldering
A. Process
The connector must be soldered using non--focused infrared (IR) reflow or equivalent soldering technique.
When mounting to both sides of the host pc board, the surface tension of the solder when it is in the
liquidus state will hold the connector on the pc board. Reflow temperature and time may vary depending
on the size of the host pc board and placement of other components. The reflow temperature and
approximate time to which the connector can be subjected is specified in Figure 5.

Excessive temperature may cause connector housing degradation or plating deterioration. It is recommended that
component temperatures not exceed 230ï‚°C [446ï‚°F] when using tin--lead solder and 260ï‚°C [500ï‚°F] when using
lead--free solder.
B. Cleaning
After soldering, removal of fluxes, residues, and activators is necessary. Consult with the supplier of the
solder and flux for recommended cleaning solvents. Cleaners must be free of dissolved flux and other
contaminants. It is recommended cleaning the host pc board on its edge. If using aqueous cleaner,
standard equipment such as a soak--tank or an automatic in--line machine should be used. Common
cleaning solvents that will not affect the connector for the time and temperature specified are listed in
Figure 6.
Consideration must be given to toxicity and other safety requirements recommended by the solvent manufacturer.
Refer to the manufacture’s Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for characteristics and handling of cleaners.
Trichloroethylene and Methylene Chloride is not recommended because of harmful occupational and environmental
effects. Both are carcinogenic (cancer--causing).
If you have a particular solvent that is not listed, contact Product Information at the number on the bottom of page 1 for
recommendations.
C. Drying
When drying cleaned assemblies and host pc boards, make certain that temperatures do not exceed
85ï‚°C [185ï‚°F]. Excessive temperatures may cause connector housing degradation.
