Table 28: Package classification reflow temperature, PB-free assembly, Note: refer to IPC/-
JEDEC J-STD-020E
It is recommended to solder this module on the last reflow cycle of the PCB. For solder paste
use a LFM-48W or Indium based SAC 305 alloy (Sn 96.5 / Ag 3.0 / Cu 0.5 / Indium 8.9HF /
Type 3 / 89%) type 3 or higher.
The reflow profile must be adjusted based on the thermal mass of the entire populated PCB,
heat transfer efficiency of the reflow oven and the specific type of solder paste used. Based
on the specific process and PCB layout the optimal soldering profile must be adjusted and
verified. Other soldering methods (e.g. vapor phase) have not been verified and have to be
validated by the customer at their own risk. Rework is not recommended.
