Reflow Profile
Solder Reflow
• Recommended reflow methods:
- IR
- Hot air
- Nitrogen
• Recommended maximum paste thickness: 0.25mm (0.010 inch)
• Devices can be cleaned using standard methods and aqueous solvents.
• We believe the optimum conditions for forming acceptable solder fillets occur when a reasonable amount of solder paste is placed
underneath each device’s termination. As such, we request that customers comply with our recommended solder pad layouts.

• Customer should validate that the solder paste amount and reflow recommendations meet its application.
• We request that customer board layouts refrain from placing raised features (e.g. vias, nomenclature, traces, etc.) underneath PolySwitch
devices. It is possible that raised features could negatively impact solderability performance of our devices.
Rework
• femtoSMD, picoSMD, nanoSMD, microSMD and miniSMD series: standard industry practices.
Please also avoid direct contact to the device.
• SMD series: rework should be confined to removal of the installed product and replacement with a fresh device.
