Place a single drop of conductive epoxy onto each micro-strip 4. After curing, inspect joint for epoxy shorts across the as illustrated the edge of the epoxy shall be at least .003- termination and micro strip gaps that would cause a .004 back from the edge of the trace to prevent filling short across the cap. the gap with epoxy. Isopropanol and Methanol are both safe to use to pre clean. 2. Centering the termination gap of the capacitor within the gap Isopropanol and Methanol are not to be used after in the micro strip, press with careful, even pressure onto the mounting with conductive epoxy as they act as a solvent. micro strip ensuring the terminations make good contact with the epoxy drops. 3. Cure according to the epoxy manufacturers preferred schedule l Typically 125C to 150C Max. Gap: Epoxy Thickness: .012 - .014 .003 - .005 Ideal Micro Strip Width: .020 - .025 Epoxy Diameter: .010 - .015 Distance from Trace Edge: .003 - .004 Knowles (Cazenovia) Novacap Knowles (UK) Ltd Knowles (Cazenovia) 2777 Route 20 East, Cazenovia, 25111 Anza Drive, Valencia, Hethel Engineering Centre, Chapman Way, 2777 Route 20 East, Cazenovia, NY 13035 USA CA 91355 USA Hethel, Norwich NR14 8FB NY 13035 USA Phone: +1 315 655 8710 Phone: +1 661 295 5920 Phone: +44 1603 723300 Phone: +1 315 655 8710 Fax: +1 315 655 0445 Fax: +1 661 295 5928 Fax: +44 1603 723301 Fax: +1 315 655 0445 DLISales knowles.com NovacapSales knowles.com SyferSales knowles.com VoltronicsSales knowles.com 10194/16/v4 Copyright: Knowles Corporation 2016 - Design: www.panpublicity.co.uk
