4.5 Soldering Instructions

For soldering, standard reflow soldering ovens may be used. The sensors are designed to withstand soldering profile according

to IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 with a maximum peak temperature of 235°C during up to 30 sec for Pb-free assembly in IR/Convection

reflow ovens.

Note that due to the comparably large size of the SCD4x sensor significant temperature differences across the sensor element

can occur during reflow soldering. Specifically, the temperature within the sensor cap can be higher than the temperature

measured at the pad using usual temperature monitoring methods. Care must be taken that a temperature of 235° C is not

exceeded at any time in any part of the sensor.

Do not apply any board wash process step subsequently to the reflow soldering. Note that the dust cover on top of the cap must

not be removed or wetted with any liquid. Finally, the SCD4x is not compatible with vapor phase reflow soldering.

4.6 Traceability

All SCD4x sensors have a distinct electronic serial number for identification and traceability (see chapter 3.9.2). The serial

number can be decoded by Sensirion only and allows for tracking through production, calibration, and testing.
