Precautions
Lead Forming
The leads of an LED lamp may be preformed or cut to
length before they are inserted and soldered into the
PC board.
If forming a lead is required before it is soldered, then
take care to avoid any excessive mechanical stress
induced to the LED package. Otherwise, cut the LED
leads to length after soldering at room temperature.
The solder joint formed will absorb the mechanical
stress of the lead cutting from traveling to the LED chip
die attach and wirebond.
It is recommended that tooling be made precisely and
the leads cut to length, rather than relying on your
hand.
Soldering Conditions
Care must be taken during PCB assembly and soldering
process to prevent damage to LED component.
The closest an LED is allowed to be soldered on board is
1.59 mm below the body (encapsulant epoxy) for those
parts without stando.
Recommended soldering conditions:
Wave Soldering Manual Solder Dipping
Pre-heat Temperature
105 °C Max.
Pre-heat Time 30 sec Max.
Peak Temperature
250 °C Max. 260 °C Max.
Dwell Time 3 sec Max. 5 sec Max.
The wave soldering parameter must be set and
maintained according to the recommended
temperature and dwell time in the solder wave.
Customer is advised to periodically check the soldering
prole to ensure the soldering prole used always
conforms to recommended soldering condition.
If necessary, use a xture during soldering process to
hold the LED component in the proper orientation
with respect to the PCB.
Proper handling is a must to avoid excessive thermal
stresses to LED components when heated. Therefore,
the soldered PCB must be allowed to cool to room
temperature, 25 °C, before handling.
To ensure solderability, pay special attention to board
fabrication, solder masking, surface plating and lead
hole size and component orientation.
Here are the recommended PC board plated through-
hole sizes for LED component leads:
