Nichia STS-DA1-0043A
<Cat.No.071228>
(6) Soldering Conditions
· The LEDs can be soldered in place using the reflow soldering method.
Nichia cannot make a
guarantee on the LEDs after they have been assembled using the dip or hand soldering method.

(N2 reflow is recommended.)
ꢀ Although the recommended soldering conditions are specified in the above table, reflow
soldering at the lowest possible temperature is desirable for the LEDs.
ꢀ A rapid-rate process is not recommended for cooling the LEDs down from the peak temperature.

· Occasionally there is a brightness decrease caused by the influence of heat or ambient atmosphere
during air reflow. It is recommended that the User use the nitrogen reflow method.
· Repairing should not be done after the LEDs have been soldered. When repairing is unavoidable,
a hot plate should be used. It should be confirmed beforehand whether the characteristics of the LEDs
will or will not be damaged by repairing.
· Reflow soldering should not be done more than two times.
· Die Heat sink is to be soldered.
If not, please use the heat conductive adhesive.
· When soldering, do not put stress on the LEDs during heating.
· After soldering, do not warp the circuit board.
