18. Soldering of WLCSP packages

18.1 Introduction to soldering WLCSP packages

This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account

of soldering WLCSP (Wafer Level Chip-Size Packages) can be found in application note

AN10439 “Wafer Level Chip Scale Package” and in application note AN10365 “Surface

mount reﬂow soldering description”.

Wave soldering is not suitable for this package.

All NXP WLCSP packages are lead-free.

18.2 Board mounting

Board mounting of a WLCSP requires several steps:

1. Solder paste printing on the PCB

2. Component placement with a pick and place machine

3. The reﬂow soldering itself

18.3 Reﬂow soldering

Key characteristics in reﬂow soldering are:

• Lead-free versus SnPb soldering; note that a lead-free reﬂow process usually leads to

higher minimum peak temperatures (see Figure 32) than a PbSn process, thus

reducing the process window
