Manual soldering profile details

Hi,

need information about the soldering profile for LQFP100 pin package in case, soldering the IC manually with temperature controlled soldering station

Hi,

a soldering profile depends on the process for the used tin , not on the case of the parts.

So see the standard profile for your solder.

for RoHS, Pb free:

Hello @AG1 ;

 

I recommend you to look at Soldering recommendations and package information for lead-free ECOPACK2 MCUs and MPUs - Application note may help you.

 

Thank you.

Hi,

It seems max. temperature for soldering will be 260degC for manual process also on temperature controlled soldering station, then what could be temperature for de-soldering it?

as, during initial board bring up & trouble shooting , i would like to ensure that chip should not get damage during any process

thanks, already went through document, but unable to get the required info.

Hi,

temperature for de-soldering 

same as soldering, but maybe somewhat higher, because chip anyway going to trash then.

So its more : not damage the board. I use 350° (hot air) for desoldering, or hot plate at 260°.

The chips/parts usually not very sensitive to high temp. , if its just for short time.

For hand soldering typical recommendation is:  Resistance to soldering heat 260 °C/ 5 s  . (for relais here)

And as always: important is the flux , good flux.   And the way, you do it...experience helping a lot.

My preferred (and cheap) flux is NC-559 (see on Ali or ebay) , works fine with lead and lead free solder.

btw

I had already chips soldered and desoldered 2 times, chip still working fine. (at repairing boards with problems)

The chips are not particularly sensitive or delicate. Heat them up until the solder melts, hold a couple seconds, then let them cool down.

If you want the best reliability, use the recommended reflow profiles.
