10.3 Soldering Information

Proper operation of the LMZ20502 requires that it be correctly soldered to the PCB. This is especially true regarding the EP. This pad acts as a quiet ground reference for the device and a heatsink connection. Use the following recommendations when utilizing machine placement of the device:

  • Dimension of area for pick-up: 2 mm x 2.5 mm.
  • Use a nozzle size of less than 1.3 mm in diameter, so that the head does not touch the outer area of the package.
  • Use a soft tip pick-and-place head.
  • Add 0.05 mm to the component thickness so that the device will be released 0.05 mm into the solder paste without putting pressure or splashing the solder paste.
  • Slow the pick arm when picking the part from the tape and reel carrier and when depositing the device on the board.
  • If the machine releases the component by force, use the minimum force and no more than 3 N.
  • For PCBs with surface mount components on both sides, it is suggested to put the LMZ20502 on the top side. In case the application requires bottom side placement, a re-flow fixture may be required to protect the module during the second reflow.

In addition, please follow the important guidelines found in: SNOA401. The curves in Figure 40 and Figure 41 show typical soldering temperature profiles.
