PRODUCTION DATA
For PCB assembly, standard reflow soldering ovens may be used. The HDC302x uses the standard soldering profile IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 with peak temperatures at 260°C. When soldering the HDC3020, it is mandatory to use no-clean solder paste, and the paste must not be exposed to water or solvent rinses during assembly because these contaminants may affect sensor accuracy. When soldering HDC3021 or HDC3022, both which have a protective cover which protects the sensor, these devices allow for PCB board wash. After reflow, it is expected that the sensor will generally output a shift in relative humidity, which will reduce over time as the sensor is exposed to typical indoor ambient conditions 25C and 50% RH for 5 days. Following this rehydration procedure allows the polymer to correctly settle after reflow and return to the calibrated RH accuracy.
