KMA22x; KMA32x handling information
1. Introduction
1.1 General
NXP Semiconductors is not the owner of customer processes and cannot test them under
all conditions. Therefore, the information below is a general guideline for product handling
and package assembly.
It does not replace the process development and release by the customer.
1.2 Package information
.0
$
The products KMA22x and KMA32x use the package SOT1188. It is fit for soldering and
welding. The leads can be bent according to customer requirements. The products require
gentle handling as especially the leads can bend unintentionally due to their small cross
section and length.

2. Storage
2.1 Store conditions
Secure and clean store areas must be provided to isolate and protect the products.
Conditions in the store areas shall be such that the quality of the products does not
deteriorate due to, among others, harmful gasses or electrical fields.
Storage conditions:
• Temperature
– Min. +8 C
– Max. +45 C
• Humidity
– Min. 25 %
– Max. 75 %

2.2 Shelf life
The shelf life for packed products is 4 years after the date code.
3. Precautions
3.1 Stress to sensor head
As all MagnetoResistive (MR) sensors, KMA22x and KMA32x react on severe mechanical
stress. It can compromise the accuracy of the device. Prevent bending (warping) of the
sensor head as that applies enormous stress to the sensor chip.
DDD
Fig 2.
Straight and warped sensor head
Often the sensor is attached to a substrate (e.g. a throttle body cover). The sensor should
be decoupled as much as possible from the substrate, e.g. by using a soft silicone glue to
fix the sensor.
3.2 Stress to sensor leads
Caused by differences in thermal expansion of sensor and environment (socket), high
amount of stress can be generated. To reduce that stress, bend the sensor or external
leads to prepare a flexible region. Bending recommendations see Section 5.2.

4. Product handling
4.1 ESD protection
Despite the KMA22x and KMA32x devices being equipped with capacitors to increase the
ESD robustness, apply the usual ESD protection measures.

4.2 Forces on body
Forces on the plastic body during general handling should not exceed 10 N. Apply forces
via flat surfaces, parallel to the sensor surface. Avoid stress concentrations at smaller
areas.
4.3 Forces along leads
.0
$
Maximum pull force along leads is limited to 10 N per lead. Forces in other directions
should be prevented as the leads tend to bend easily. Pushing of leads can cause
caving-in.

4.4 Forces at fin
Maximum pull force is limited to 15 N. Forces perpendicular to the fin should be prevented
as the fin tends to bend easily.

5.1.1 Package features for alignment
Blue areas are preferred for alignment in socket.
Red areas should not be used for alignment due to uncontrolled package outline caused
by gate remains or potential mold compound flash.
Other areas can be used for alignment.

5.1.2 Reading point alignment
Best reference for the Reading Point (RP) is the Lead Frame (LF) as the die is attached to
the LF.
• As the fin is part of the lead frame, it is the preferred alignment feature.
• The RP has a tolerance of 0.1 mm regarding the fin.
• The lead frame formed the rim (mold compound flowed to the lead frame edge,
forming the rim). Therefore, it has the same tolerance of 0.1 mm.

5.1.3 Pin alignment
Just aligning the package at the sensor head may not be sufficient to ensure proper
positioning of the pins to their external counterparts.
Align the product at the rim. It is also possible to align at the leads itself.

5.2 Lead bending
To adapt the packages to customer requirements, the leads can be bent as shown in
Figure 10 and Figure 11.
It is not recommended to bend the dambar (and fin) region (see Figure note 1 of
Figure 11) as the lead geometry in those areas can compromise the bending result.
Instead, bending is recommended at the straight parts of the leads.

$
To prevent lead pull forces at the entrance to the plastic body, use proper clamping at the
leads in between the bending position and the plastic body.

5.4 Welding

During electrowelding, a heat wave travels along the leads causing high stress to the
sensor product. To limit the stress, control the heat by verifying that the Sn reflow zone
does stop in front of plastic body (at body entrance).
