Although the recommended soldering conditions are specified in the above table, dip or hand soldering at the lowest

possible temperature is desirable for the LEDs.



Wave soldering parameter must be set and maintain according to recommended temperature and dwell time in the solder

wave.

4.

Cleaning



When necessary, cleaning should occur only with isopropyl alcohol at room temperature for a duration of no more than

one minute. Dry at room temperature before use.



Do not clean the LEDs by the ultrasonic. When it is absolutely necessary, the influence of ultrasonic cleaning on the LEDs

depends on factors such as ultrasonic power and the assembled condition. Ultrasonic cleaning shall be pre-qualified to

ensure this will not cause damage to the LED

5.

Heat Management



Heat management of LEDs must be taken into consideration during the design stage of LED application. The current

should be de-rated appropriately by referring to the de-rating curve found in each product specification.



The temperature surrounding the LED in the application should be controlled. Please refer to the data sheet de-rating

curve.

6.

ESD (Electrostatic Discharge)



Electrostatic discharge (ESD) or surge current (EOS) can damage LEDs.



An ESD wrist strap, ESD shoe strap or antistatic gloves must be worn whenever handling LEDs.



All devices, equipment and machinery must be properly grounded.



Use ion blower to neutralize the static charge which might have built up on surface of the LEDs plastic lens as a result of

friction between LEDs during storage and handing.
