5. Antenna Recommended Soldering Conditions

5.1 Flux, Solder

5.2 Reflow Soldering Conditions

• Use rosin-based flux. Don’t use highly acidic flux with halide content exceeding 0.2wt%(chlorine conversion value).

• Use Sn solder.

•

Pre-heating should be in such a way that the temperature difference between solder and product surface is limited to 150℃ max.

Cooling into solvent after soldering also should be in such a way that temperature difference is limited to 100℃ max.

Unwrought pre-heating may cause cracks on the product, resulting in the deterioration of products quality.
