5.3. Application Reference Circuit 6. SMT AND BAKING RECOMMENDATION 6.1. Baking Recommendation Baking condition: - Follow MSL Level 4 to do baking process. - After bag is opened, devices that will be subjected to reflow solder or other high temperature process must be a) Mounted within 72 hours of factory conditions <30 C/60% RH, or b) Stored at <10% RH. - Devices require bake, before mounting, if Humidity Indicator Card reads >10% If baking is required, Devices may be baked for 8 hrs at 125 C.

6.2. SMT Recommendation Recommended Reflow profile: H No. Item Temperature ( C) Time (sec) 1 Pre-heat D1: 140 ~ D2: 200 T1: 80 ~ 120 2 Soldering D2: = 220 T2: 60 ± 10 3 Peak-Temp. D3: 250 C max Note: (1) Reflow soldering is recommended two times maximum. (1) Add Nitrogen while Reflow process: SMT solder ability will be better. Stencil thickness: 0.1~ 0.15 mm (Recommended) Soldering paste (without Pb): Recommended SENJU N705-GRN3360-K2-V can get better soldering effects. Page 13
