MIA-M10Q - Integration manual
4.2 Packaging
The MIA-M10Q modules are delivered as hermetically sealed, reeled tapes in order to enable efficient
production, production lot set-up and tear-down. For more information, see the u-blox packaging
information reference [
4.2.1 Reels
MIA-M10Q modules are deliverable in quantities of 1000 pieces on a reel. They are shipped on reel
type D, as specified in the u-blox Packaging information reference [
].
4.2.2 Moisture sensitivity level
The moisture sensitivity level (MSL) for MIA-M10Q modules is specified in the table below.

Table 31: MSL level
For MSL standard see IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020, and J-STD-033 that can be downloaded from
. For more information regarding moisture sensitivity levels, labeling, storage and
drying, see the u-blox packaging information reference [
].
4.3 Soldering
Reflow soldering procedures are described in the IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 standard.
When populating the modules, make sure that the pick and place machine is aligned to the
copper pins of the module and not to the module edge.
Soldering paste
Use of “no clean” soldering paste is highly recommended, as it does not require cleaning after
the soldering process. The paste-mask geometry for applying soldering paste should meet the
recommendations given in the
section.
