Powered by ICminer.com Electronic-Library Service CopyRight 2003 2 Package The HSDL-2300 module consists of Optical Sub-Assemblies (OSAs), an Electrical SubAssembly (ESA), and an integrated EMI shield. There are two package options: Option #001 with guide pins, and Option #002 without guide pins. Drawings of the two options package are illustrated in Figure 3 and Figure 4. New Package Benefits The new package that consists of OSAs and ESA with the combination of integrated EMI shield utilizes existing in-house high-volume assembly processes to ensure high quality and high volume supply. The integrated EMI shield helps to ensure low EMI emission and high immunity to EMI field, thus enhancing reliable performance. Optical Sub-Assemblies (OSAs) Electrical Sub-Assembly (ESA) The Optical Sub-Assemblies include a Transmitter and a Receiver. The Electrical Sub-Assembly (ESA) consists of a double-sided printed circuit board on which a BiCMOS Integrated Circuit (IC) and various surface-mount passive circuit elements are attached. The IC contains an LED driver and a receiver that provides a single output channel, RXD. The Transmitter has a discrete emitter that utilizes TransparentSubstrate Aluminium Gallium Arsenide (TS AlGaAs) LED technology that offers high-speed and high optical output efficiency performance with an integral lens in a clear molded package. The Receiver utilizes a discrete silicon PIN photo-diode with an integral lens in a molded package and contains a dye to absorb visible light. The Receiver lens is designed such that it magnifies the effective area of the PIN photo-diode to enhance sensitivity. And the PIN photodiode and pre-amplifier power supplies are filtered to attenuate noise from external sources.

Reflow Process Zones. representative for additional details. Figure 5 is a straight line representation of a nominal temperature profile for a convective IR reflow solder process. The temperature profile is divided into four process zones with four ∆T/∆time temperature change rates. The ∆T/∆time temperature change rates are detailed in Table 1. The temperatures are measured at the component to printed-circuit (pc) board connections. In process zone P1, the pc board and HSDL-2300 castellation I/O pins are heated to a temperature of 125˚C to activate the flux in the solder paste. The temperature ramp up rate, R1, is limited to 3˚C per second to allow for even heating of both the pc board and HSDL-2300 castellation I/O pins. Process zone P2 should be of sufficient time duration to dry the solder paste. The temperature is raised to a level just below the liquidus point of the solder, usually 170˚C (338˚F). Process zone P3 is the solder reflow zone. In zone P3, the temperature is quickly raised above the liquidus point of solder to 230˚C (446˚F) for optimum results. The dwell time above the liquidus point of solder should be between 15 and 90 seconds. It usually takes about 15 seconds to assure proper coalescing of the Powered by ICminer.com Electronic-Library Service CopyRight 2003 solder balls into liquid solder and the formation of good solder connections. Beyond a dwell time of 90 seconds, the intermetallic growth within the solder connections becomes excessive, resulting in the formation of weak and unreliable connections. The temperature is then rapidly reduced to a point below the solidus temperature of the solder, usually 170˚C (338˚F), to allow the solder within the connections to freeze solid. Process zone P4 is the cool down after solder freeze. The cool down rate, R5, from the liquidus point of the solder to 25˚C (77˚F) should not exceed –3˚C (26.6˚F) per second maximum.

The light source faces the optical port. Appendix A. Test Methods This simulates sunlight within the IrDA spectral range. The effect of longer wavelength radiation is covered by the incandescent condition. A.1 Background Light and Electromagnetic Field There are four ambient interference conditions in which the receiver is to operate correctly. The conditions are to be applied separately: 1. Electromagnetic field: 3 V/m maximum (please refer to IEC 801-3, severity level 3 for details). 2. Sunlight: 10 kilolux maximum at the optical port. This is simulated with an IR source having a peak wavelength within the range 850 nm to 900 nm and a spectral width less than 50 nm biased to 3. Incandescent Lighting: 1000 lux maximum. This is produced with general service, tungsten-filament, gasfilled, inside-frosted lamps in the 60 Watt to 150 Watt range to generate 1000 lux over the horizontal surface on which the equipment under test rests. The light sources are above the test area. The source is expected to have a filament temperature in the 2700 to 3050 degrees Kelvin range and a spectral peak in the 850 nm to 1050 nm range. 4. Fluorescent Lighting: 1000 lux maximum. This is simulated with an IR source having a peak wavelength within the range 850 nm to 900 nm and a spectral width of less than 50 nm biased and modulated to provide an optical square wave signal (0 µW/cm2 minimum and 0.3 µW/cm2 peak amplitude with 10% to 90% rise and fall times less than or equal to 100 ns) over the horizontal surface on which the equipment under test rests. The light sources are above the test area. The frequency of the optical signal is swept over the frequency range from 20 kHz to 200 kHz. Due to the variety of fluorescent lamps and the range of IR emissions, this condition is not expected to cover all circumstances. It will provide a common floor for IrDA operation. All IR transceivers operating under the recommended drive conditions are classified as CENELEC EN60825-1 Accessible Emission Limit (AEL) Class 1. This standard is in effect in Europe as of January 1, 1997. AEL Class 1 LED devices are considered eye safe. Please see Application Note 1094 for more information. Appendix B.

The direction of board travel does not matter. 3.1 Tolerance for X-Axis Alignment of Castellation Misalignment of castellation to the land pad should not exceed 0.2 mm or approximately half the width of the castellation during placement of the unit. The castellations will completely selfalign to the pads during solder reflow. 3.2 Tolerance for Rotational (theta) Misalignment Unit when mounted should not be rotated more than 3˚ with reference to center X-Y as specified in Figure 2.0.
