Both processes can be performed with Pb-containing or Pb-free solders. The termination options available for these soldering techniques are AgPd and Barrier Type End Terminations. **==> picture [509 x 21] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> End termination Designation Recommended and Suitable for Component RoHS Compliant<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> |Ag/Pd|Series (ZV, AV, DV, C, …)……..

N R1|Pb-containing and<br>Pb-free soldering|Yes| |Ni Sn End Termination|Series (ZV, AV, ...) ...Ni R1|Pb-containing and<br>Pb-free soldering v|Yes| Wave Soldering – this process is generally associated with discrete components mounted on the underside of printed circuit boards, or for large top-side components with bottom-side mounting tabs to be attached, such as the frames of transformers, relays, connectors, etc. SMD varistors to be wave soldered are first glued to the circuit board, usually with an epoxy adhesive. When all components on the PCB have been positioned and an appropriate time is allowed for adhesive curing, the completed assembly is then placed on a conveyor and run through a single, double wave process. Infrared Reflow Soldering – these reflow processes are typically associated with top-side component placement. This technique utilizes a mixture of adhesive and solder compounds (and sometimes fluxes) that are blended into a paste. The paste is then screened onto PCB soldering pads specifically designed to accept a particular sized SMD component. The recommended solder paste wet layer thickness is 100 to 300 µm. Once the circuit board is fully populated with MD components, it is placed in a reflow environment, where the paste is heated to slightly above its eutectic temperature. When the solder paste reflows, the SMD components are attached to the solder pads. Solder Fluxes – solder fluxes are generally applied to populated circuit boards to lean oxides form forming during the heating process and to facilitate the flowing of the solder. Solder fluxes can be either a part of the solder paste compound or can be separate materials, usually fluids. Recommended fluxes are: - non-activated (R) fluxes, whenever possible - mildly activated (RMA) fluxes of class L3CN - class ORLO Activated (RA), water soluble or strong acidic fluxes with a chlorine content > 0.2 wt. % are NOT RECOMMENDED. The use of such fluxes could create high leakage current paths along the body of the varistor components. When a flux is applied prior to wave soldering, it is important to completely dry any residual flux solvents prior to the soldering process. **==> picture [510 x 126] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> 300 300 300<br>T (°C) T (°C) T (°C)<br>Maximum 250°C Maximum 250°C<br>250 250 250<br>Maximum 230°C 217 °C<br>200 70-80 °C, maximum 100 °C 200 183 °C 200 60 to 150 s<br>150 2 to 4 °C/ssecond wavefirst secondwave 150 120 °C 2 to 4 °C/s Above soldermelting point45 to 80 s 150 2 to 4 °C/s Above soldermelting point<br>100 100 100 Preheat Zone Soldering Zone<br>2 to 4 °C/s first 2 to 4 °C/s Preheat Zone Soldering Zone<br>50 Preheat Zone Soldering Zone 50 50<br>0 t (min) 0 t (min) 0 t (min)<br>0 1 2 3 4 0 1 2 3 4 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7<br>Fig. 1.

Additionally, SMD varistors should not be subjected to a temperature gradient greater than 4 °C/sec., with an ideal gradient being 2 °C/sec. Peak temperatures should be controlled. Wave and Reflow soldering conditions for SMD varistors with Pb-containing solders are shown in Fig. 1 and 2 respectively, while Wave and Reflow soldering conditions for SMD varistors with Pb-free solders are shown in Fig, 1 and 3. Whenever several different types of SMD components are being soldered, each having a specific soldering profile, the soldering profile with the least heat and the minimum amount of heating time is recommended. Once soldering has been completed, it is necessary to minimize the possibility of thermal shock by allowing the hot PCB to cool to less than 50 °C before cleaning. Inspection Criteria – the inspection criteria to determine acceptable solder joints, when Wave or Infrared Reflow processes are used, will depend on several key variables, principally termination material process profiles. Pb-contining Wave and IR Reflow Soldering – typical “before” and “after” soldering results for Silver/Palladium (AgPd) and Barrier Type End Terminations can be seen in Fig. 4. Both barrier type and silver/palladium terminated varistors form a reliable electrical contact and metallurgical bond between the end terminations and the solder pads. The bond between these two metallic surfaces is exceptionally strong and has been tested by both vertical pull and lateral (horizontal) push tests. The results, in both cases, exceed established industry standards for adhesion. The solder joint appearance of a barrier type terminated versus a sliver/palladium terminated varistor will be slightly different. Solder forms a metallurgical junction with the thin tin-alloy (over the barrier layer), and due to its small volume “climbs” the outer surface of the terminations, the meniscus will be slightly lower. This optical appearance difference should be taken into consideration when programming visual inspection of the PCB after soldering. **Silver Palladium (AgPd) End Terminations** ## **Barrier Type End Terminations and Ni Sn End Terminations** **==> picture [467 x 125] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> AgPd<br>Barrier<br>Metal<br>Before Before Solderable<br>metal<br>soldering soldering<br>W W<br>After After<br>a > 90 % of W Solder paste a > 90 % of W Solder paste<br>soldering soldering<br>t b > 20 % of t t b > 20 % of t<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> Fig. 4 Soldering Criterion in case of Wave and IR Reflow Pb-containing Soldering **Silver Palladium (AgPd) End Terminations** **Barrier Type End Terminations and Ni Sn End Terminationsv** **==> picture [467 x 131] intentionally omitted <==** **----- Start of picture text -----**<br> AgPd<br>Barrier<br>Before Before Metal Solderable<br>soldering metal<br>soldering<br>a > 90 % of WW solderingAfter Solder paste a > 90 % of WW solderingAfter Solder paste<br>t b > 20 % of t t b > 20 % of t<br>**----- End of picture text -----**<br> Fig. 5 Soldering Criterion in case of Wave and IR Reflow Pb-free Soldering **KEKO VARICON** products are sold by description only - product technical specification.

Solder forms a metallurgical junction with the entire volume of the end termination, i.e. it diffuses from pad to end termination across the inner side, forming a “mirror” or “negative meniscus. The height of the solder penetration can be clearly seen on the end termination and is always 30% higher than the chip height. Since barrier type terminations on KEKO-VARICON chips do not require the use of problematic nickel and tin-alloy electroplating processes, these varistors are truly considered environmentally friendly. Solder Test and Retained Samples – reflow soldering test based on J-STD-020D.1 and soldering test by dipping based on IEC 600682 for Pb-free solders are preformed on each production lot as shown in the following chart. Test results and accompanying samples are retained for a minimum of two (2) years. The solderability of a specific lot can be checked at any time within this period should a customer require this information. |Test|Resistance to flux|Solderability|Static leaching (simula-<br>tion of Reflow Solder-<br>ing)|Dynamic leaching<br>(simunation of Wave<br>Soldering)| |---|---|---|---|---| |Parameter||||| |Solderingmethod|dipping|dipping|dipping|dippingwith agitation| |Flux|L3CN, ORL0|L3CN, ORL0, R|L3CN, ORL0, R|L3CN, ORL0, R| |Pb Solder|62Sn / 36Pb / 2 Ag|||| |Pb Soldering tempera-<br>ture (°C)|235 ± 5|235 ± 5|260 ± 5|235 ± 5| |Pb-FREE Solder|Sn96 / Cu0,4-0,8 /<br>3-4Ag|||| |Pb-FREE Soldering<br>temperature (°C)|250 ± 5|250 ± 5|280 ± 5|250 ± 5| |Solderingtime (s)|2|210|10|> 15| |Burn-in conditions|Vdcmax, 48 h|-|-|-| |||||| |Acceptance criterion|dVn < 5 %, idcmust stay<br>unchanged|> 95 % of end termina-<br>tion must be covered by<br>solder|> 95 % of end termina-<br>tion must be intact and<br>covered by solder|> 95 % of end termina-<br>tion must be intact and<br>covered by solder| Rework Criteria Soldering Iron – unless absolutely necessary, the use of soldering irons is NOT recommended for reworking varstor chips. If no other means of rework is available, the following criteria must be strictly followed: - Do not allow the tip of the iron to directly contact the top of the chip - Do not exceed the following soldering iron specifications: Outp ut Power: 30 Watts maximum Temperature of Soldering Iron Tip: 280 °C maximum Soldering Time: 10 Seconds maximum Storage Conditions – SMD varistors should be used within 1 year of purchase to avoid possible soldering problems caused by oxidized terminals. The storage environment should be controlled, with humidity less than 40% and temperature between -25 and 45 °C. Varistor chips should always be stored in their original packaged unit. Where varistor chips have been in storage for more than 1 year, and where there is evidence of solderability difficulties, KEKO-VARICON can “refresh” the terminations to eliminate these problems. **KEKO VARICON** products are sold by description only - product technical specification.
