For PCB assembly, standard reflow soldering ovens can be used. The HDC302x-Q1 uses the standard soldering profile IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 with peak temperatures at 260°C. When soldering the HDC3020Q-Q1, using no-clean solder paste is mandatory, and the paste must not be exposed to water or solvent rinses during assembly because these contaminants can affect sensor accuracy. When soldering HDC3021Q-Q1 or HDC3022Q-Q1, both which have a protective cover which protects the sensor, these devices allow for a printed circuit board (PCB) wash.
During reflow due to high temperature exposure, the sensor is expected (whether open cavity or a protective cover device is used) to generally output a shift in relative humidity. This shift reduces over time as the sensor is exposed to typical indoor ambient conditions 25°C and 50% RH for five days. Following this rehydration procedure allows the polymer to correctly settle after reflow and return to the calibrated RH accuracy.
