FC1703 Receiver RFIC for Dual-Band Triple Mode RECOMMENDED CONDITION FOR REFLOW SOLDERING Figure 1 shows the typical process flow for mounting surface mount packages to printed circuit boards. The same process can be used for mounting the MLFs without any modifications. It is important to include post print and post reflow inspection, especially during process development. The volume of paste printed should be measured either by 2D or 3D techniques. The paste volume should be around 80 to 90% of stencil aperture volume to indicate good paste release. After reflow, the mounted package should be inspected in transmission xray for the presence of voids, solder balling, or other defects. Cross-sectioning may also be required to determine the fillet shape and size and joint standoff height. A typical reflow profile for No Clean solder paste is shown in Figure 2. Since the actual reflow profile depends on the solder paste being used and the board density, a specific profile is not recommended. However, the temperature should not exceed 240E and the time above liquidus temperature should be less than 75 seconds. The maximum temperature can be increased for Pb free solder if the package has been qualified for higher temperature moisture sensitivity level. The ramp rate during preheat should be 3E/second or lower. Figure 1. Typical PCB Mounting Process Flow. Figure 2. Typical Solder Reflow Profile (from Application Notes for Amkor' MLF Package) s 16 / 17 Last Update 03/28/03 Future Communications Integrated circuit Inc. FC1703 Receiver RFIC for Dual-Band Triple Mode REWORK GUIDELINES Since solder joints are not fully exposed in the case of MLFs, any retouch is limited to the side fillet. For defects underneath the package, the whole package has to be removed. Rework of MLF packages can be a challenge due to their small size. In most applications, MLFs will be mounted on smaller, thinner, and denser PCBs that introduces further challenges due to handling and heating issues. Since reflow of adjacent parts is not desirable during rework, the proximity of other components may further complicate this process. Because of the product dependent complexities, the following only provides a guideline and a starting point for the development of a successful rework process for these packages. The rework process involves the following steps: Component Removal Site Redress Solder Paste Application, Component Placement, and Component Attachment. These steps are discussed in the following in more detail. Prior to any rework, it is strongly recommended that the PCB assembly be baked for at least 4 hours at 125E to remove any residual moisture from the assembly. 4.1. Component Removal The first step in removal of component is the reflow of solder joints attaching component to the board. Ideally the reflow profile for part removal should be the same as the one used for part attachment. However, the time above liquidus can be reduced as long as the reflow is complete. In the removal process, it is recommended that the board should be heated from the bottom side using convective heaters and hot gas or air should be used on the top side of he component. Special nozzles should be used to direct the heating in the component area and heating of adjacent components should be minimized. Excessive airflow should also be avoided since this may cause CSP to skew. Air velocity of 15 - 20 liters per minute is a good starting point. Once the joints have reflowed, the Vacuum lift-off should be automatically engaged during the transition from reflow to cooldown. Because of their small size the vacuum pressure should be kept below 15" of Hg. This will allow the component not to be lifted out if all joints have not been reflowed and avoid the pad liftoff. 4.2. Site Redress After the component has been removed, the site needs to be cleaned properly. It is best to use a combination of a blade-style conductive tool and desoldering braid. The width of he blade should be matched to the maximum width of the footprint and the blade temperature should be low enough not to cause any damage o the circuit board. Once the t residual solder has been removed, the lands should be cleaned with a solvent. The solvent is usually specific to the type of paste used in the original assembly and paste manufacturer' recommendations s should be followed. 4.3. Solder Paste Printing Because of their small size and finer pitches, solder paste deposition for MLFs requires extra care. However, a uniform and precise deposition can be achieved if miniature stencil specific to the component is used. The stencil aperture should be aligned with the pads under 50 to 100X magnification. The stencil should then be lowered onto the PCB and the paste should be deposited with a small metal squeegee blade. The blade width should be the same as the package width to ensure single pass paste deposition thus avoiding any overprinting. The stencil thickness and aperture size and shape should be the same as used for the original assembly. Also, no-clean flux should be used, as small standoff of MLFs does not leave much room for cleaning. 4.4. Component Placement MLF packages are expected to have superior selfcentering ability due to their small mass and the placement of this package should be similar to that of BGAs. As the leads are on the underside of the package, split-beam optical system should be used to align the component on the motherboard. This will form an image of solder balls overlaid on the mating footprint and aid in proper alignment. Again, the alignment should be done at 50 to 100X magnification. The placement machine should have the capability of allowing fine adjustments in X, Y, and rotational axes. 4.5. Component Attachment The reflow profile developed during original attachment or removal should be used to attach the new component. Since all reflow profile parameters have already been optimized, using the same profile will eliminate the need for thermocouple feedback and will reduce operator dependencies.
