12.2. Soldering Conditions
Products can be applied to reflow and flow soldering.
(1) Flux,Solder
Flux
Use rosin-based flux, but not highly acidic flux (with chlorine content exceeding 0.2(wt)%. )
Do not use water-soluble flux.
Solder
Use Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu solder
Standard thickness of solder paste : 100 µm to 200 µm
Use of Sn-Zn based solder will deteriorate performance of products.
In case of using Sn-Zn based solder, please contact Murata in advance.
(2) Soldering conditions
· Pre-heating should be in such a way that the temperature difference between solder and ferrite surface is
limited to 150 °C max. Also cooling into solvent after soldering should be in such a way that the temperature
difference is limited to 100 °C max.
Insufficient pre-heating may cause cracks on the ferrite, resulting in the deterioration of product quality.
· Standard soldering profile and the limit soldering profile is as follows.
The excessive limit soldering conditions may cause leaching of the electrode and / or resulting
in the deterioration of product quality.

12.3. Reworking with soldering iron
· Pre-heating : 150 °C , 1 min
· Tip temperature: 350°C max.
· Soldering time : 3 (+1, -0) seconds.
· Soldering iron output : 80 W max.
· Tip diameter : φ 3mm max.
·Times : 2times max.
Note : Do not directly touch the products with the tip of the soldering iron in order to prevent the crack
on the ferrite material due to the thermal shock.
12.4. Solder Volume
Solder shall be used not to be exceeded as shown below.
Accordingly increasing the solder volume, the mechanical stress to product is also increased.
Exceeding solder volume may cause the failure of mechanical or electrical performance.

12.5. Attention regarding P.C.B. bending
The following shall be considered when designing and laying out P.C.B.'s.
(1) P.C.B. shall be designed so that products are not subject to the mechanical stress for board warpage.

(2) Components location on P.C.B. separation.
It is effective to implement the following measures, to reduce stress in separating the board.
It is best to implement all of the following three measures; however, implement as many measures as possible
to reduce stress.
Contents of Measures
(1) Turn the mounting direction of the component parallel to the board separation surface.
(2) Add slits in the board separation part.
(3) Keep the mounting position of the component away from the board separation surface.

(3) Mounting Components Near Screw Holes
When a component is mounted near a screw hole, it may be affected by the board deflection that occurs during
the tightening of the screw. Mount the component in a position as far away from the screw holes as possible.

12.6. Potential between Elements
Products should be used within 5 V (DC) between elements.
When the products are used the excessive voltage over 5 V (DC) , it may cause breaking of inner electrode
and / or decreasing of insulation resistance between elements.
12.7. Mounting density
Add special attention to radiating heat of products when mounting the inductor near the products with heating.
The excessive heat by other products may cause deterioration at joint of this product with substrate.
12.8. Cleaning
Excessive ultrasonic oscillation during cleaning can cause the PCBs to resonate, resulting in cracked chips or
broken solder joints. Before starting your production process, test your cleaning equipment / process to insure it
does not degrade this product.
12.9. Handling of a substrate
After mounting products on a substrate, do not apply any stress to the product caused by bending or twisting to the
substrate when cropping the substrate, inserting and removing a connector from the substrate or tightening screw to
the substrate.
Excessive mechanical stress may cause cracking in the product.
