It is recommended to wear a wristband or an anti-electrostatic glove whenever handling the LEDs All devices, equipment, and machinery that is used when handling the LEDs must be grounded properly. Heat Generation It is advised to operate these LEDs at a reasonable low temperature for long lifetime and stability. High operating temperature will result in premature degradation and shortened lifetime. 13.08.2012 APG2C1-920 3/4 Soldering Conditions Reflow Soldering: APG2C1 LEDs have a maximum storage temperature of 85°. Therefor it is not possible to use a reflow soldering process for array assembly! Hot Bar Soldering: A Hot Bar Soldering process is recommended when soldering APG2C1 emitters. This process will only transfer heat to the leads and avoids overheating the emitter which will damage the device. In order to transfer sufficient heat from the hot bar to the device, following parameters must be carefully considered: • • • Amount of flux Pressing force of solder tip Hot bar temperature For the standard assembly process, following parameters should be maintained: • • • Hot Bar temperature: 330 °C Force of Hot Bar. 40 N Soldering time: 1.5 s It is recommended to use a copper nickel-plated hot bar mounted to standard temperature controlled soldering equipment. Manual Hand Soldering: For prototype build or small series production runs, it is possible to place and solder the emitters by hand. It is therefore recommended to maintain the following parameters: • • • Solder Tip Temperature 330 °C Soldering time. < 1.5 s Junction temperature must be kept below 70 °C A visual inspection may be used to check the quality of the solder joint General Soldering Precautions: • • • 13.08.2012 Mechanical stress, shock and vibration must be avoided during soldering Only use non corrosive flux. Do not apply current to the device until it has cooled down to room temperature after soldering. APG2C1-920 4/4
