Solder Profile and Pattern
1) Dip Types (LA, LB ,LAP,LBP series)
Please keep the preheat and peak temperatures with dip units as low as possible and the times as short as is feasible, since the products are susceptible to heat during flow soldering. As a guide, ensure that the internal temperature of the LED numeric display does not exceed 100°C.
Soldering Example
300 3s or less Temperature °C 250 200 150 100 50 0 Preheat 30s or less Conditions General flow conditions
A single wave is better than a double wave, while stationary flow method is the best.

Item Solder dip
Conditions At least 2mm from the base of the lead pin.
Solder Temperature
Preheat temperature must be no greater than 80°C.
Process Duration 30 seconds or less 3 seconds or less 3 seconds or less
No more than 260°C. No more than 300°C.
Solder iron Reflow
At least 2mm from the base of the lead pin. Power: No more than 30W.
Reflow cannot be used. (other than the LF-301 series)
∗Please use a resin-based flux, since flux that is acidic or highly alkaline could cause corrosion.
2) Surface Mount Type (LF-301 series)
Please refer to the following reflow soldering profile and pattern examples for surface mount units.
