Soldering
This section provides information necessary for using semiconductor devices, including storage and cleaning conditions related to device mounting on a substrate, as well as reflow profiles. Please use it together with the product data sheet.
Soldering flux
Don’t use halogen-based soldering flux.
Please use RMA type and low residue type.

Cleaning Conditions (Electronic device products)
- We recommend alternative CFCs substitute for solvent.
Don’t use trichloroethylene, trichloroethane, etc. - Cleaning time should be less than 180 s. (including in solvent, in vapor and in ultrasonic bath).
- Ultrasonic cleaning is available
Frequency : 28 to 40 kHz (Please avoid resonance.)
Power : 15 W/liter (MAX.)
Time : 60 s (MAX.)
(Note)The above cleaning conditions are just reference. Please confirm the following items too.
- Set the proper cleaning condition according to the recommendation of the cleaner manufacturer.
- Take notice that mark legibility can be degraded by cleaning.
- Please be careful not to remain corrosive constituents.
- We recommend alternative CFCs substitute for solvent.
-
Cleaning Conditions (Optoe-Electronic Devices)
- Please refrain from cleaning of the device as much as possible.
Be careful to a void solvents or the vapor of solvents attach the resin of devices even during the mounting and using. -
If cleaning flux and others is indispensable, lead parts of devices only can be cleaned by using the following solvent by the condition within 35℃ and 3minute.
Solvent : isopropyl alcohol, methyl alcohol - For products that support reflow soldering, avoid cleaning immediately after the reflow.
- Please refrain from cleaning of the device as much as possible.
Storage Condition
Notes of IC storage
- Do not use water for the tap for humidifiers, but use pure water or boiled water.
- Do not store devices in a corrosive-gas atmosphere.
- Do not store devices in a dusty place.
- Do not expose devices to direct sunlight.
- Maintain the temperature of the storage place stabilized.
- Keep away from excessive load and impact.
- Keep away from excessive electromagnetic radiation exposure.
Storage period
Please mount devices within a year after delivering. For the devices have stored longer than a year, check the corrosion of leads and solderability before using.
