FIGURE 4-13: RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PLACEMENT OF THE MODULE ON THE HOST
PCB BOARD
4.5 Soldering Recommendations
The RN4870/71 Bluetooth module is assembled using
standard lead-free reflow profile IPC/JEDEC
J-STD-020.
The module can be soldered to the host PCB using
standard leaded and lead-free solder reflow profiles.
To avoid damaging the module, the following recom-
mendations are given:
Microchip Technology Application Note, “AN233
Solder Reflow Recommendation” (DS00233)
provides solder reflow recommendations
•Do not exceed peak temperature (T
P
) of 250°C
Refer to the solder paste data sheet for specific
reflow profile recommendations
Use no-clean flux solder paste
•Do not wash as moisture can be trapped under
the shield
Use only one flow. If the PCB requires multiple
flows, apply the module on the final flow.
