Lead Free Soldering
The –Z version SMT modules of the SHHN000A3 series are
lead-free (Pb-free) and RoHS compliant and are compatible in
a
Pb-free soldering process. Failure to observe the instructions
below may result in the failure of or cause damage to the
modules and can adversely affect long-term reliability.
Pb-free Reflow Profile
Power Systems will comply with J-STD-020 Rev. D
(Moisture/Reflow Sensitivity Classification for Nonhermetic
Solid State Surface Mount Devices)
for both Pb-free solder profiles and MSL classification
procedures. This standard provides a recommended forced-
air-convection reflow profile based on the volume and
thickness of the package (table 4-2). The suggested Pb-free
solder paste is Sn/Ag/Cu (SAC). The recommended linear reflow
profile using Sn/Ag/Cu solder is shown in Figure 22.

MSL Rating
The SHHN000A3 series SMT modules have a MSL rating of 2a.
Storage and Handling
The recommended storage environment and handling
procedures for moisture-sensitive surface mount packages is
detailed in J-STD-033 Rev. A (Handling, Packing, Shipping and
Use of Moisture/Reflow Sensitive Surface Mount Devices).
Moisture barrier bags (MBB) with desiccant are required for
MSL ratings of 2 or greater. These sealed packages should not
be broken until time of use. Once the original package is
broken, the floor life of the product at conditions of
≤ 30°C and
60% relative humidity varies according to the MSL rating (see
J-STD-033A). The shelf life for dry packed SMT packages will be
a minimum of 12 months from the bag seal date, when stored
at the following conditions: < 40° C, < 90% relative humidity.
Post Solder Cleaning and Drying Considerations
Post solder cleaning is usually the final circuit-board assembly
process prior to electrical board testing. The result of
inadequate cleaning and drying can affect both the reliability
of a power module and the testability of the finished
circuit-board assembly. For guidance on appropriate soldering,
cleaning and drying procedures, refer to GE Board Mounted
Power Modules: Soldering and Cleaning Application Note
(AP01-056EPS).
