ual in-line, Flat, No-leads) chip-scale package.
About the LTC1540CDD
The LTC1540 is a Nano-power Voltage Comparator with
a Built In Voltage Reference
Electrical performance of this LTC1540 is the same as
previous versions. This version is only a packaging enhancement.
An evaluation circuit can easily be built on this board
Ultra-low Quiescent Current of only 300nA
1.2V, 2% Tolerance Voltage Reference
Adjustable Hysteresis
without handling the tiny DFN device. Pads are provided
for adding external components and holes are available
for jumpers, signal I/O and supply wires. Supply bypass
capacitors are already on the board. Alternatively adding
two 4-pin headers (0.1" spacing) converts the board to a
standard 8-pin DIP format for use with a socket on a
50µsec Propagation Delay
Input Voltage Range From V- to V+-1.3V
Output Sources 40mA
Total Supply Voltage Range: 2V to 11V

The backside of this evaluation board is void of metal to
allow wiring into an existing system with the board resting on top of other components.

ASSEMBLY TIPS
ing surface mount packages to PC boards.
Reflow Soldering with Solder Paste
• Use of solder plated boards is recommended.
• Screen solder paste on board.
• Mount components on board.
• Infrared or forced hot air convection reflow is rec-
ommended for best performance. Parameters:
− Preheat peak temperature 125°C ± 15°C and 2°C
to 4°C per second rise
DD PACKAGE
− Activation temperature 130°C to 150°C Following are the recommended procedures for solder-
− Reflow begins at 183°C (63Sn/37Pb)
− Time above 183°C for 30 seconds
− Peak package body temperature 220°C to 245°C
− Dwell time at peak temperature 10 seconds max
− Cooling rate 2°C to 4°C per second
− Clean boards.
• For Vapor Phase Reflow, recommended parameter
ranges for:
− Heating rate: 4°C per second max

mended.
REWORK GUIDELINES FOR DFN PACKAGES
Each package mounting site should be reworked one at a
time only, to ensure maximum quality and reliability.
Linear Technology has found the following rework procedure to be effective with DFN packages but by no
means excludes other methods more suited to specific
manufacturing needs.
Reflow Temperature Profile
Each package site to be reworked should be individually heated. The reflow temperature profile can be established using a hot gas tool and a thermocouple
embedded in the solder joints of a sample setup unit
on the PCB.
Preheating and Package Removal
A package rework tool with vacuum pickup similar to
the A.P.E. Flo-Master can be used. A bottom PCB
heater is required to provide preheating of the PCB to
approximately 110°C to 120°C. The rework nozzle
must be centered with respect to the package in order
to direct the hot gas flow over the top of the package
while limiting the temperature of the adjacent components to prevent solder reflow.
Site Rework
With a combination on hot gas/vacuum desoldering
tool and solder wick ribbons (if necessary), remove
the package and any remaining solder residues. Use a
minimal amount of flux if it is required to remove solder residue. This will also assist in leaving a smooth,
flat surface for the reattachment of a replacement
unit. The site for the package should be thoroughly
cleaned with isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and dried with
clean dry air (CDA).
Solder Paste Application
Solder paste may be screen printed on to the package
landing site and exposed heat sink pads. Stainless
steel stencils are recommended for solder paste application. The printed solder deposits should be 100
percent inspected for uniformity of size and shape.
Some applications may have severe space constraints
preventing screen printing to be accomplished on the
PCB. Therefore, solder paste can be directly applied to
the packages landing site and exposed heatsink pad.
The package is to be picked and placed using a vision
aided system similar to the A.P.E. Sniper SMD 7007
Rework System.
Reflow Process
The replacement package, once it has been placed
onto the reworked PCB landing site, should be reflowed on the PCB using a hot gas tool on the top of
the package and a heater on the bottom of the PCB.
The reflow temperature should not exceed 240°C.
Note that liquidus temperature for 63/37 Sn/Pb solder
is 183°C. Make sure to limit adjacent components to
below the solder reflow temperature. The solder paste
manufacturer’s recommended reflow temperature
profile/specifications must be complied with to avoid
damage to the PCB and/or adjacent components. A
100 percent post rework visual inspection for good
joint wetting is recommended.
