(one time only)

Although the recommended soldering conditions are specified in the above table, reflow, dip 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.

[Temperature-profile (Surface of circuit board)]

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.

· Reflow soldering should not be done more than two times.

· Dip soldering should not be done more than one time.

· When soldering, do not put stress on the LEDs during heating.

· After soldering, do not warp the circuit board.
