Assembly Notes
Recommended Surface Mount Package Assembly
•
Proper ESD precautions must be followed while handling packages.
•
Clean the board with acetone. Rinse with alcohol. Allow the circuit to fully dry.
•
TriQuint recommends using a conductive solder paste for attachment. Follow solder paste and reflow
oven vendors’ recommendations when developing a solder reflow profile. Typical solder reflow profiles
are listed in the table below.
•
Hand soldering is not recommended. Solder paste can be applied using a stencil printer or dot
placement. The volume of solder paste depends on PCB and component layout and should be well
controlled to ensure consistent mechanical and electrical performance.
•
Clean the assembly with alcohol.
