5. Packing and Handling
Orchid-2 Beacon, like any other SMD devices, is sensitive to moisture, electrostatic discharge, and
temperature. By following the standards outlined in this document for GlobalTop Orchid-2 Beacon
storage and handling, it is possible to reduce the chances of them being damaged during production
set-up. This document will go through the basics on how GlobalTop packages its modules to ensure
they arrive at their destination without any damages and deterioration to performance quality. It
includes cautionary notes for prior to the surface mount process.
Please read the sections II to V carefully to avoid permanent damages due to moisture
intake.
Orchid-2 Beacon contains highly sensitive electronic circuits and is electronic sensitive
devices. Improper handling without ESD protections may lead to permanent damages to the
modules. Please read section VI for more details.
5.1 Moisture Sensitivity
GlobalTop Orchid-2 Beacon is moisture sensitive, and must be pre-baked before going through the
solder reflow process. It is important to know that:
GlobalTop Orchid-2 Beacon must complete solder reflow process in 72 hours after pre-baking.
This maximum time is otherwise known as “Floor Life”
If the waiting time has exceeded 72 hours, it is possible for the module to suffer damages during the
solder reflow process such as cracks and delaminating of the SMD pads due to excess moisture
pressure.

5.2 Packing
GlobalTop Orchid-2 Beacon is packed in such a way to ensure the product arrives to SMD factory
floor without any damages.
Orchid-2 Beacon is placed individually on to the packaging tray. The trays will then be stacked and
packaged together.
Included are:
1. Two packs of desiccant for moisture absorption
2. One moisture level color coded card for relative humidity percentage.
Each package is then placed inside an antistatic bag (or PE bag) that prevents the modules from
being damaged by electrostatic discharge.
Figure 1: One pack of Orchid-2 Beacon
Each bag is then carefully placed inside two levels of cardboard carton boxes for maximum
protection.

The moisture color coded card provides an insight to the relative humidity in percentage (RH). When
the Orchid-2 Beacon is taken out, it should be around or lower than 30% RH level.
Outside each electrostatic bag is a caution label for moisture sensitive device.

5.3 Storage and Floor Life Guideline
Since GlobalTop modules must undergo solder-reflow process in 72 hours after it has gone through
pre-baking procedure, therefore if it is not used by then, it is recommended to store the Orchid-2
Beacon in dry places such as dry cabinet.
The approximate shelf life for GlobalTop Orchid-2 Beacon packages is 6 months from the bag seal
date, when store in a non-condensing storage environment (<30°C/60% RH)
It is important to note that it is a required process for GlobalTop Orchid-2 Beacon to
undergo pre-baking procedures, regardless of the storage condition.
5.4 Drying
When Orchid-2 module exposed to high temperature of solder reflow, the moisture vapor pressure
inside the module increase greatly. In order to prevent internal delaminating, cracking of the device
or the “popcorn” phenomenon, it is necessary to undergo pre-baking procedure prior to any high
temperature or solder reflow process.
The recommendation baking time for GlobalTop Orchid-2 Beacon is as follows:
 60°C for 8 to 12 hours
Once baked, the module’s floor life will be “reset”, and has additional 72 hours in normal factory
condition to undergo solder reflow process.
Please limit number of times the Orchid-2 Beacon undergo baking processes as repeated
baking process has an effect of reducing the wetting effectiveness of the SMD pad contacts.
This applies to all SMT devices.
Oxidation Risk: Baking SMD packages may cause oxidation and/or inter metallic growth of
the terminations, which if excessive can result in solder ability problems during board
assembly. The temperature and time for baking SMD packages are therefore limited by
solder ability considerations. The cumulative bake time at a temperature greater than 90°C
and up to 125°C shall not exceed 96 hours. Bake temperatures higher than 125°C are now
allowed.

5.5 ESD Handling
Please carefully follow the following precautions to prevent severe damage to
Orchid-2 Beacon.
GlobalTop Orchid-2 Beacon is sensitive to electrostatic discharges, and thus are Electrostatic
Sensitive Devices (ESD). Careful handling of the Orchid-2 Beacon must follow the standard ESD safety
practices:
 Unless there is a galvanic coupling between the local GND and the PCB GND, then the first
point of contact when handling the PCB shall always be between the local GND and PCB GND.
 Please do not touch the mounted PCB antenna to prevent electrostatic discharge from the
RF input
