Notes:

(1)

RMA flux is recommended. Duration can be extended to 10 seconds maximum when flow soldering.

(2)

Derate linearly 1.82 mW/° C above 25° C.

(3)

Methanol or isopropanol are recommended as cleaning agents. Plastic housing is soluble in chlorinated hydrocarbons and ketones.

(4)

All parameters were tested using pulse technique.
