    Recommendations for board assembly of Infineon transistor outline type packages Mounting of through-hole devices Component placement of THD THDs are inserted either with special automatic equipment or manually. During this insertion, special care has to be taken that excessive deformation or violent bending is avoided. The diameter of the drill holes in the PCB has to be appropriate for the tolerances of component leads, drill hole position placement accuracy, and properties of the solder alloy used.

  • Page 25: Cleaning

    Recommendations for board assembly of Infineon transistor outline type packages Cleaning Cleaning After the soldering process, some flux residues may remain on the board, especially near the solder joints. Generally, cleaning beneath a SMD component is difficult due to the small gap between the component body and the PCB.
