07-3. Precautions for manual soldering and solder
The size and thickness of this this connector has been reduced in order to achieve
a narrow pitch and save space. Therefore, take a great care when carrying out
manual soldering or rework.
(1) When carrying out manual soldering or rework, make sure that the soldering iron
tip does not contact the molded part. In addition, do not overheat the iron,
otherwise the resin will melt.
(2) During solder rework, solder is supplied at and the soldering iron is applied to the
tip of each pattern. Make sure that solder and the soldering iron do not contact
the terminal.
(3) When carrying out manual soldering or rework, avoid using flux if possible in
order to prevent it from rising to the contact section. (For details, see the next
page.)
When adding more solder, prevent excessive amount of solder.
It may cause solder wicking.
(4) When using flux, apply as little as possible to the tip of the foot pattern. Since this
connector has an ultra-low profile, an excessive amount of flux may cause an
unwanted rise of flux and may result in requiring flux cleaning.
(5) After manual soldering or solder reworking, inspect and check the solder finish
and other abnormalities, such as the adhesion of dispersed flux on the contact,
using a magnifying glass.
Do not open or close the lever or insert the FPC before soldering.
Applying excessive force on the terminals will result in the loosening
of the terminals from the molded portion, or in the faulty coplanarity.
Do not apply solder to the FPC when it is inserted into the connector.
