Please follow the recommended assembly
guidelines for the LMG2100 samples:
- Use low temperature solder paste
(like Sn42-Bi58) whose melting temperature is around 130℃-140℃.
- Soldering using bottom side
heating:
- Recommended for thinner
board (less than or equal to four layers) with no components directly
underneath the device.
- Place the solder paste as
per the stencil recommendation given in the data sheet.
- Board held on a pedestal
at around 2-3 cm from the top of the hot air blower and device is
aligned to keep on the footprint.
- Soldering using top side
heating:
- This method is
recommended for thicker board (more than 4 layers).
- Use hot air gun (with
temperature set to 400℃) and blow the air around the device avoiding
directly above the device (temperature can be higher but used for
shorter duration).
- Look for proper soldering
connection of signal pins. If there are excess solder, then please remove them
manually using solder iron.
- Avoid putting excess solder paste
especially near the edge of PGND pad (pin number 6).
- If the assembly is done through
automatic reflow oven, then set the temperature to less than 180℃.
