(methylene chloride, trichloro–
ethylene, carbon tetrachloride,
etc.) are not recommended for
cleaning LED parts. All of these
various solvents attack or dissolve
the encapsulating epoxies used to
form the package of plastic LED
parts.
Contrast Enhancement
For information on contrast
enhancement please see
Application Note 1015.
For information on soldering
LEDs please refer to Application
Note 1027.
Soldering/Cleaning
