(4) 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 soldering method.

(one time only)

Although the recommended soldering conditions are specified in the above table, reflow or hand

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.

Use the conditions shown to the under figure.

[Recommended soldering pad design]

Use the following conditions shown in the figure.

· 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 double-head soldering iron should be used.

It should be confirmed beforehand whether the

characteristics of the LEDs will or will not be damaged by repairing.

(5) Cleaning

· It is recommended that isopropyl alcohol be used as a solvent for cleaning the LEDs.

When using

other solvents, it should be confirmed beforehand whether the solvents will dissolve the package and the

resin or not.

Freon solvents should not be used to clean the LEDs because of worldwide regulations.

· Do not clean the LEDs by the ultrasonic.

When it is absolutely necessary, the influence of ultrasonic

cleaning on the LEDs depends on factors such as ultrasonic power and the assembled condition.

Before cleaning, a pre-test should be done to confirm whether any damage to the LEDs will occur.
