## **Precautions** 

## ■ **Soldering Information** 

## **Reflow soldering** 

- The following soldering paste is recommended: 

   - Melting temperature: 216 to 220°C 

   - Composition: Sn 3.5 Ag 0.75 Cu 

- The recommended thickness of the metal mask for screen printing is between 0.2 and 0.25 mm. 

- Set the reflow oven so that the temperature profile shown in the following chart is obtained for the upper surface of the product being soldered.

## **Manual soldering** 

- Use ”Sn 60” (60% tin and 40% lead) or solder with silver content. 

- Use a soldering iron of less than 25 W, and keep the temperature of the iron tip at 300°C or below. 

- Solder each point for a maximum of three seconds. 

- After soldering, allow the product to return to room temperature before handling it. 

## **Storage** 

To protect the product from the effects of humidity until the package is opened, dry-box storage is recommended. If this is not possible, store the product under the following conditions: 

Temperature: 10 to 30°C 

Humidity: 60% max. 

The product is packed in a humidity-proof envelope. Reflow soldering must be done within 48 hours after opening the envelope, during which time the product must be stored under 30°C at 80% maximum humidity. 

If it is necessary to store the product after opening the envelope, use dry-box storage or reseal the envelope. 

## **Baking** 

If a product has remained packed in a humidity-proof envelope for six months or more, or if more than 48 hours have lapsed since the envelope was opened, bake the product under the following conditions before use: 

Reel: 60°C for 24 hours or more 

Bulk: 80°C for 4 hours or more
