1.1
Leaded PTC thermistors follow the solderability requirements of IEC 60068-2-20.
During soldering, care must be taken that the thermistors are not damaged by excessive heat.
The following maximum temperatures, maximum time spans and minimum distances have to be
observed:
Solderability
Resistance to
soldering heat
Distance to thermistor has to be 6 mm. Under more severe soldering conditions the resistance
may change. Soldering conditions for wave soldering are given in chapter 1.4.1.
1.2
In case of PTC thermistors without leads, soldering is restricted to devices which are provided
with a solderable metallization. The temperature shock caused by the application of hot solder
may produce fine cracks in the ceramic, resulting in changes in resistance.
In addition, soldering methods should be employed which permit short soldering times.
Soldering conditions for wave soldering are given in chapter 1.4.1.
1.3
The notes on soldering leadless thermistors also apply to the SMD versions (refer to
IEC 60068-2-58). Soldering conditions for wave soldering are given in chapter 1.4.1., for reflow
soldering in chapter 1.4.2.
1.3.1
(Sizes 0402, 0603, 0805, 1210)
As shown in the figure above, the terminations consists of three metallic layers. A primary chrome
layer provides for good electrical contact. "Leaching" is prevented by a nickel barrier layer. The
outer tin coating prevents corrosion of the nickel and ensures good component solderability.
