Alpha OM-338 lead-free cleaning-free flux is recommended. The Figure 6 is mainly used for guidance. The entire process time is subject to thermal pad number of assembly board and device Intensity. 3.6 Baking Instructions The RAK425 module is very sensitive to water. Be cautious to baking the device. At ambient conditions, it is required that within 168 hours removed from the vacuum packaging, the module should be processed with the circuit board assembly by reflow soldering; Or stored in the environment with a relative humidity below 10%. If the condition is not satisfied, the RAK425 must be processed with a 9-hour baking in the environment of 125 ℃before the reflow soldering.
