8. Layout and Soldering Considerations
8.1. Soldering Recommendations
EH-MC20 is compatible with industrial standard reflow profile for Pb-free solders. The
reflow profile used is dependent on the thermal mass of the entire populated PCB, heat
transfer efficiency of the oven and particular type of solder paste used. Consult the
datasheet of particular solder paste for profile configurations.
Comply will give following recommendations for soldering the module to ensure reliable
solder joint and operation of the module after soldering. Since the profile used is
process and layout dependent, the optimum profile should be studied case by case.
Thus following recommendation should be taken as a starting point guide.
 Refer to technical documentations of particular solder paste for profile
configurations

Avoid using more than one flow.

Reliability of the solder joint and self-alignment of the component are dependent on
the solder volume. Minimum of 150um stencil thickness is recommended.

Aperture size of the stencil should be 1:1 with the pad size.

A low residue, “no clean” solder paste should be used due to low mounted height of
the component.
8.2. Layout Guidelines
For optimal performance of the antenna place the module at the corner of the PCB as shown in the figure
3. Do not place any metal (traces, components, battery etc.) within the clearance area of the antenna.
Connect all the GND pins directly to a solid GND plane. Place the GND vias as close to the GND pins as
possible. Use good layout practices to avoid any excessive noise coupling to signal lines or supply
voltage lines. Avoid placing plastic or any other dielectric material closer than 6 mm from the antenna.
Any dielectric closer than 6 mm from the antenna will detune the antenna to lower frequencies.

min
Figure 8: Recommended Reflow Profile
Pre-heat zone (A) — This zone raises the temperature at a controlled rate, typically 0.5 – 2
C/s. The purpose of this zone is to preheat the PCB board and components to 120 ~ 150 C.
This stage is required to distribute the heat uniformly to the PCB board and completely remove
solvent to reduce the heat shock to components.
Equilibrium Zone 1 (B) — In this stage the flux becomes soft and uniformly encapsulates
solder particles and spread over PCB board, preventing them from being re-oxidized. Also with
elevation of temperature and liquefaction of flux, each activator and rosin get activated and start
eliminating oxide film formed on the surface of each solder particle and PCB board. The
temperature is recommended to be 150 to 210 for 60 to 120 second for this zone.
Equilibrium Zone 2 (c) (optional) — In order to resolve the upright component issue, it is
recommended to keep the temperature in 210 – 217  for about 20 to 30 second.
Reflow Zone (D) — The profile in the figure is designed for Sn/Ag3.0/Cu0.5. It can be a
reference for other lead-free solder. The peak temperature should be high enough to achieve
good wetting but not so high as to cause component discoloration or damage. Excessive
soldering time can lead to intermetallic growth which can result in a brittle joint. The
Shanghai Ehong Technologies Co., Ltd
Bluetooth Low Energy Module
recommended peak temperature (Tp) is 230 ~ 250 C. The soldering time should be 30 to 90
second when the temperature is above 217 C.
Cooling Zone (E) — The cooling ate should be fast, to keep the solder grains small which will
give a longerlasting joint. Typical cooling rate should be 4 C.

(OEM) Integrator has to assure compliance of the entire end-product incl. the integrated RF Module.
For 15 B (§15.107 and if applicable §15.109) compliance, the host manufacturer is required to
show compliance with 15 while the module is installed and operating.
Furthermore the module should be transmitting and the evaluation should confirm that the module's
intentional emissions (15C) are compliant (fundamental / out-of-band). Finally the integrator has
to apply the appropriate equipment authorization (e.g. Verification) for the new host device per
definition in §15.101.
Integrator is reminded to assure that these installation instructions
will not be made available to the end-user of the final host device.
