Rework During Prototyping

Solder rework can sometimes be needed during product prototyping. When reworking components on a PCB, be sure to observe the maximum reflow temperature for the particular module. Also, it is important to keep in mind the board reflow history and the maximum number of reflow cycles for the particular module. For example, if the component is mounted on the back of the board, it may have gone through two reflow cycles already prior to the rework. Another important point is to follow the MSL requirements for the component. Baking of the board assembly can be required prior to rework to remove potential moisture and mitigate risk of damage to the module or other components on the board. Proper solder paste stencil must be used to ensure adequate solder paste coverage. Refer to the suggested solder paste pattern and solder stencil information in the product data sheet. Open frame and MicroSiP packages have exposed SMT components on top of the module. These components can also reflow during the rework procedure. Take care to avoid shifting or moving the exposed these SMT components during the rework, as this can affect the module operation.
