Reflow soldering profile

The Teseo-LIV4F is a high temperature strength surface mount GNSS module supplied on a 18 pin, 6-layer PCB.

The final assembly recommended reflow profiles are indicated here below.

Soldering phase must be executed with care: to avoid undesired melting phenomenon, particular attention has to

be taken on the set up of the peak temperature.

Here below some suggestions about the temperature profile based on the following recommendations.
