Mounting instructions

1 Soldering

1.1 SMD NTC thermistors

SMD NTC thermistors can be provided with a nickel barrier termination or on special request with

silver-palladium termination. The usage of mild, non-activated fluxes for soldering is recommend-

ed as well as a proper cleaning of the PCB.

The nickel barrier layer of the silver/nickel/tin termination (see figure 1) prevents leaching of the

silver base metalization layer. This allows great flexibility in the selection of soldering parameters.

The tin prevents the nickel layer from oxidizing and thus ensures better wetting by the solder. The

nickel barrier termination is suitable for all commonly-used soldering methods.

Note: SMD NTCs with AgPd termination are not approved for lead-free soldering.

2 Conductive adhesion

An alternative to soldering is the gluing of thermistors with conductive adhesives. The benefit of

this method is that it involves no thermal stress. The adhesives used must be chemically inert.

3 Clamp contacting

Pressure contacting by means of clamps is particularly suitable for applications involving frequent

switching and high turn-on powers.

4 Sealing and potting

When thermistors are sealed, potted or overmolded, there must be no mechanical stress caused

by thermal expansion during the production process (curing / overmolding process) and during

later operation. The upper category temperature of the thermistor must not be exceeded. Ensure

that the materials used (sealing / potting compound and plastic material) are chemically neutral.

5 Cleaning

If cleaning is necessary, mild cleaning agents such as ethyl alcohol and cleaning gasoline are

recommended. Cleaning agents based on water are not allowed. Ultrasonic cleaning methods are

permissible.

6 Storage

In order to maintain their solderability, thermistors must be stored in a non-corrosive atmosphere.

Humidity, temperature and container materials are critical factors.

Do not store SMDs where they are exposed to heat or direct sunlight. Otherwise, the packing ma-

terial may be deformed or SMDs may stick together, causing problems during mounting. After

opening the factory seals, such as polyvinyl-sealed packages, use the SMDs as soon as possible.

The components should be left in the original packing. Touching the metallization of unsoldered

thermistors may change their soldering properties.

Storage temperature: 25 °Cupto45°C

Relative humidity (without condensation): ≤75% annual mean

<95%, maximum 30 days per annum

Solder the thermistors listed in this data book after shipment from EPCOS within the time speci-

fied:

SMDs: 12 months for Ni-barrier termination

6 months for AgPd termination

7 Placement and orientation of SMD NTC thermistors on PCB

a) Component placement

It is recommended that the PC board

should be held by means of some

adequate supporting pins such as

shown left to prevent the SMDs from

being damaged or cracked.

b) Cracks

When placing a component near an

area which is apt to bend or a grid

groove on the PC board, it is advisable

to have both electrodes subjected to

uniform stress, or to position the

component's electrodes at right angles

to the grid groove or bending line (see

c) Component orientation).

c) Component orientation

Choose a mounting position that

minimizes the stress imposed on the

chip during flexing or bending of the

board.

Cautions and warnings

General

See "Important notes".

Storage

Store thermistors only in original packaging. Do not open the package prior to storage.

Storage conditions in original packaging: storage temperature 25 °C ... +45 °C, relative

humidity ≤75% annual mean, <95% maximum 30 days per annum, dew precipitation is

inadmissible.

Do not store thermistors where they are exposed to heat or direct sunlight. Otherwise, the

packing material may be deformed or components may stick together, causing problems during

mounting.

Avoid contamination of thermistor surface during storage, handling and processing.

Avoid storage of thermistors in harmful environments like corrosive gases (SOx, Cl etc).

Use the components as soon as possible after opening the factory seals, i.e. the

polyvinyl-sealed packages.

Solder SMD NTC thermistors with nickel barrier termination within 12 months after shipment

from EPCOS.

Handling

NTC thermistors must not be dropped. Chip-offs or any other damage must not be caused

during handling of NTCs.

Do not touch components with bare hands. Gloves are recommended.

Avoid contamination of thermistor surface during handling.

Washing processes may damage the product due to the possible static or cyclic mechanical

loads (e.g. ultrasonic cleaning). They may cause cracks to develop on the product and its parts,

which might lead to reduced reliability or lifetime.

Soldering

Use resin-type flux or non-activated flux.

Insufficient preheating may cause ceramic cracks.

Rapid cooling by dipping in solvent is not recommended.

Complete removal of flux is recommended.

Page 17 of 21Please read Cautions and warnings and

Important notes at the end of this document.

Mounting

Ensure that no thermo-mechanical stress occurs due to production processes (curing or

overmolding processes) when thermistors are sealed, potted or overmolded or during their

subsequent operation. The maximum temperature of the thermistor must not be exceeded.

Ensure that the materials used (sealing/potting compound and plastic material) are chemically

neutral.

Electrodes/contacts must not be scratched or damaged before/during/after the mounting

process.

Contacts and housing used for assembly with the thermistor must be clean before mounting.

Ensure that adjacent materials are designed for operation at temperatures comparable to the

surface temperature of the thermistor. Be sure that surrounding parts and materials can

withstand the temperature.

Avoid contamination of the thermistor surface during processing.

The connections of sensors (e.g. cable end, wire end, plug terminal) may only be exposed to

an environment with normal atmospheric conditions.

Avoid using chemical substances as mounting aids. It must be ensured that no water or other

liquids enter the NTC thermistors (e.g. through plug terminals). In particular, water based

substances (e.g. soap suds) must not be used as mounting aids for sensors.

Operation

Use thermistors only within the specified operating temperature range.

Use thermistors only within the specified power range.

Environmental conditions must not harm the thermistors. Only use the thermistors under

normal atmospheric conditions or within the specified conditions.

Contact of NTC thermistors with any liquids and solvents should be prevented. It must be

ensured that no water enters the NTC thermistors (e.g. through plug terminals). For

measurement purposes (checking the specified resistance vs. temperature), the component

must not be immersed in water but in suitable liquids (e.g. Galden).

Avoid dewing and condensation unless thermistor is specified for these conditions.

Be sure to provide an appropriate fail-safe function to prevent secondary product damage

caused by malfunction.

This listing does not claim to be complete, but merely reflects the experience of EPCOS AG.

Important notes at the end of this document.

The following applies to all products named in this publication:

1. Some parts of this publication contain statements about the suitability of our products for

certain areas of application. These statements are based on our knowledge of typical re-

quirements that are often placed on our products in the areas of application concerned. We

nevertheless expressly point out that such statements cannot be regarded as binding

statements about the suitability of our products for a particular customer application.

As a rule, EPCOS is either unfamiliar with individual customer applications or less familiar

with them than the customers themselves. For these reasons, it is always ultimately incum-

bent on the customer to check and decide whether an EPCOS product with the properties de-

scribed in the product specification is suitable for use in a particular customer application.

2. We also point out that in individual cases, a malfunction of electronic components or

failure before the end of their usual service life cannot be completely ruled out in the

current state of the art, even if they are operated as specified. In customer applications

requiring a very high level of operational safety and especially in customer applications in

which the malfunction or failure of an electronic component could endanger human life or

health (e.g. in accident prevention or lifesaving systems), it must therefore be ensured by

means of suitable design of the customer application or other action taken by the customer

(e.g. installation of protective circuitry or redundancy) that no injury or damage is sustained by

third parties in the event of malfunction or failure of an electronic component.

3. The warnings, cautions and product-specific notes must be observed.

4. In order to satisfy certain technical requirements, some of the products described in this

publication may contain substances subject to restrictions in certain jurisdictions (e.g.

because they are classed as hazardous). Useful information on this will be found in our Ma-

terial Data Sheets on the Internet (www.epcos.com/material). Should you have any more de-

tailed questions, please contact our sales offices.

5. We constantly strive to improve our products. Consequently, the products described in this

publication may change from time to time. The same is true of the corresponding product

specifications. Please check therefore to what extent product descriptions and specifications

contained in this publication are still applicable before or when you place an order. We also

reserve the right to discontinue production and delivery of products. Consequently, we

cannot guarantee that all products named in this publication will always be available. The

aforementioned does not apply in the case of individual agreements deviating from the fore-

going for customer-specific products.

6. Unless otherwise agreed in individual contracts, all orders are subject to the current ver-

sion of the "General Terms of Delivery for Products and Services in the Electrical In-

dustry" published by the German Electrical and Electronics Industry Association

(ZVEI).
