Instructions for Use:

1. Handling:

   • Handle with care to avoid damage.
   • Use appropriate ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) protection when handling.

2. Mounting:

   • Ensure the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) is clean and free from contaminants.
   • Apply solder paste to the pads before placing the resistor.
   • Place the resistor on the board using a pick-and-place machine or manually.
   • Reflow solder according to the recommended temperature profile for SMD components.

3. Soldering:

   • Preheat the board to 150°C ± 10°C.
   • Ramp up the temperature at a rate of 2-3°C per second.
   • Peak temperature should be between 230°C and 250°C.
   • Maintain the peak temperature for 3-5 seconds.
   • Cool down the board at a rate of 3-5°C per second.

4. Inspection:

   • Visually inspect the solder joints for proper wetting and absence of voids or bridges.
   • Use X-ray inspection if necessary to ensure internal connections are secure.

5. Storage:

   • Store in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight.
   • Use within 12 months of receipt for optimal performance.

6. Testing:

   • Measure the resistance using a multimeter to ensure it falls within the specified tolerance.
   • Test the power rating by applying the maximum rated voltage and monitoring the temperature rise.
