sealed packages should not be broken until time of
use. Once the original package is broken, the floor
life of the product at conditions of ≤ 30°C and 60%
relative humidity varies according to the MSL rating
(see J-STD-033A). The shelf life for dry packed SMT
packages will be a minimum of 12 months from the
bag seal date, when stored at the following conditions:
< 40° C, < 90% relative humidity.
Lead Free Soldering
The –Z version Austin MiniLynx SMT modules are
lead-free (Pb-free) and RoHS compliant and are both
forward and backward compatible in a Pb-free and a
SnPb soldering process. Failure to observe the
instructions below may result in the failure of or cause
damage to the modules and can adversely affect
long-term reliability.
Post Solder Cleaning and Drying
Considerations
Pb-free Reflow Profile
Post solder cleaning is usually the final circuit-board
assembly process prior to electrical board testing. The
result of inadequate cleaning and drying can affect
both the reliability of a power module and the
testability of the finished circuit-board assembly. For
guidance on appropriate soldering, cleaning and
drying procedures, refer to Board Mounted Power
Modules: Soldering and Cleaning Application Note
(AN04-001).
Power Systems will comply with J-STD-020 Rev. C
(Moisture/Reflow Sensitivity Classification for
Nonhermetic Solid State Surface Mount Devices) for
both Pb-free solder profiles and MSL classification
procedures. This standard provides a recommended
forced-air-convection reflow profile based on the
volume and thickness of the package (table 4-2). The
suggested Pb-free solder paste is Sn/Ag/Cu (SAC).
The recommended linear reflow profile using
Sn/Ag/Cu solder is shown in Figure. 39.
