SC16C754B  
5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V quad UART, 5 Mbit/s (max.) with 64-byte  
FIFOs  
Rev. 04 — 6 October 2008  
Product data sheet  
1. General description  
The SC16C754B is a quad Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) with  
64-byte FIFOs, automatic hardware/software flow control, and data rates up to 5 Mbit/s  
(3.3 V and 5 V). The SC16C754B offers enhanced features. It has a Transmission Control  
Register (TCR) that stores receiver FIFO threshold levels to start/stop transmission during  
hardware and software flow control. With the FIFO Ready (FIFO Rdy) register, the  
software gets the status of TXRDY/RXRDY for all four ports in one access. On-chip status  
registers provide the user with error indications, operational status, and modem interface  
control. System interrupts may be tailored to meet user requirements. An internal  
loopback capability allows on-board diagnostics.  
The UART transmits data, sent to it over the peripheral 8-bit bus, on the TX signal and  
receives characters on the RX signal. Characters can be programmed to be 5, 6, 7, or  
8 bits. The UART has a 64-byte receive FIFO and transmit FIFO and can be programmed  
to interrupt at different trigger levels. The UART generates its own desired baud rate  
based upon a programmable divisor and its input clock. It can transmit even, odd, or no  
parity and 1, 1.5, or 2 stop bits. The receiver can detect break, idle, or framing errors,  
FIFO overflow, and parity errors. The transmitter can detect FIFO underflow. The UART  
also contains a software interface for modem control operations, and has software flow  
control and hardware flow control capabilities.  
The SC16C754B is available in plastic LQFP64, LQFP80 and PLCC68 packages.

Clock Select. CLKSEL selects the divide-by-1 or divide-by-4 prescalable  
clock. During the reset, a logic 1 (VCC) on CLKSEL selects the  
divide-by-1 prescaler. A logic 0 (GND) on CLKSEL selects the divide-by-4  
prescaler. The value of CLKSEL is latched into MCR[7] at the trailing  
edge of RESET. A logic 1 (VCC) on CLKSEL will latch a logic 0 into  
MCR[7]. A logic 0 (GND) on CLKSEL will latch a logic 1 into MCR[7].  
MCR[7] can be changed after RESET to alter the prescaler value. This  
pin is associated with LQFP80 and PLCC68 packages only. This pin is  
connected to VCC internally on LQFP64 package.

6. Functional description  
The SC16C754B UART is pin-compatible with the SC16C554 and SC16C654 UARTs. It  
provides more enhanced features. All additional features are provided through a special  
enhanced feature register.  
The UART will perform serial-to-parallel conversion on data characters received from  
peripheral devices or modems, and parallel-to-parallel conversion on data characters  
transmitted by the processor. The complete status of each channel of the SC16C754B  
UART can be read at any time during functional operation by the processor.  
The SC16C754B can be placed in an alternate mode (FIFO mode) relieving the processor  
of excessive software overhead by buffering received/transmitted characters. Both the  
receiver and transmitter FIFOs can store up to 64 bytes (including three additional bits of  
error status per byte for the receiver FIFO) and have selectable or programmable trigger  
levels. Primary outputs RXRDY and TXRDY allow signalling of DMA transfers.  
The SC16C754B has selectable hardware flow control and software flow control.  
Hardware flow control significantly reduces software overhead and increases system  
efficiency by automatically controlling serial data flow using the RTS output and CTS input  
signals. Software flow control automatically controls data flow by using programmable  
Xon/Xoff characters.  
The UART includes a programmable baud rate generator that can divide the timing  
reference clock input by a divisor between 1 and (216 1).  
6.1 Trigger levels  
The SC16C754B provides independent selectable and programmable trigger levels for  
both receiver and transmitter DMA and interrupt generation. After reset, both transmitter  
and receiver FIFOs are disabled and so, in effect, the trigger level is the default value of  
one byte. The selectable trigger levels are available via the FIFO Control Register (FCR).  
The programmable trigger levels are available via the Trigger Level Register (TLR).

6.2 Hardware flow control  
Hardware flow control is comprised of auto-CTS and auto-RTS. Auto-CTS and auto-RTS  
can be enabled/disabled independently by programming EFR[7:6].  
With auto-CTS, CTS must be active before the UART can transmit data.  
Auto-RTS only activates the RTS output when there is enough room in the FIFO to receive  
data and de-activates the RTS output when the RX FIFO is sufficiently full. The halt and  
resume trigger levels in the TCR determine the levels at which RTS is  
activated/deactivated.  
If both auto-CTS and auto-RTS are enabled, when RTS is connected to CTS, data  
transmission does not occur unless the receiver FIFO has empty space. Thus, overrun  
errors are eliminated during hardware flow control. If not enabled, overrun errors occur if  
the transmit data rate exceeds the receive FIFO servicing latency.

6.2.1 Auto-RTS  
Auto-RTS data flow control originates in the receiver block (see Figure 1 “Block diagram of  
SC16C754B”). Figure 6 shows RTS functional timing. The receiver FIFO trigger levels  
used in auto-RTS are stored in the TCR. RTS is active if the RX FIFO level is below the  
halt trigger level in TCR[3:0]. When the receiver FIFO halt trigger level is reached, RTS is  
de-asserted. The sending device (for example, another UART) may send an additional  
byte after the trigger level is reached (assuming the sending UART has another byte to  
send) because it may not recognize the de-assertion of RTS until it has begun sending the  
additional byte. RTS is automatically reasserted once the receiver FIFO reaches the  
resume trigger level programmed via TCR[7:4]. This re-assertion allows the sending  
device to resume transmission.

The two blocks in dashed lines cover the case where an additional byte is sent, as described in Section 6.2.1.  
Fig 6. RTS functional timing  
6.2.2 Auto-CTS  
The transmitter circuitry checks CTS before sending the next data byte. When CTS is  
active, the transmitter sends the next byte. To stop the transmitter from sending the  
following byte, CTS must be de-asserted before the middle of the last stop bit that is  
currently being sent. The auto-CTS function reduces interrupts to the host system. When  
flow control is enabled, CTS level changes do not trigger host interrupts because the  
device automatically controls its own transmitter. Without auto-CTS, the transmitter sends  
any data present in the transmit FIFO and a receiver overrun error may result.

When CTS is LOW, the transmitter keeps sending serial data out.  
When CTS goes HIGH before the middle of the last stop bit of the current byte, the transmitter  
finishes sending the current byte, but it does not send the next byte.  
When CTS goes from HIGH to LOW, the transmitter begins sending data again.

6.3 Software flow control  
Software flow control is enabled through the enhanced feature register and the modem  
control register. Different combinations of software flow control can be enabled by setting  
different combinations of EFR[3:0]. Table 3 shows software flow control options.

Remark: When using software flow control, the Xon/Xoff characters cannot be used for  
data characters.  
There are two other enhanced features relating to software flow control:  
‘Xon Any’ function (MCR[5]): Operation will resume after receiving any character  
after recognizing the Xoff character. It is possible that an Xon1 character is  
recognized as an ‘Xon Any’ character, which could cause an Xon2 character to be  
written to the RX FIFO.  
Special character (EFR[5]): Incoming data is compared to Xoff2. Detection of the  
special character sets the Xoff interrupt (IIR[4]) but does not halt transmission. The  
Xoff interrupt is cleared by a read of the IIR. The special character is transferred to the  
RX FIFO.  
6.3.1 RX  
When software flow control operation is enabled, the SC16C754B will compare incoming  
data with Xoff1/Xoff2 programmed characters (in certain cases, Xoff1 and Xoff2 must be  
received sequentially). When the correct Xoff character is received, transmission is halted  
after completing transmission of the current character. Xoff detection also sets IIR[4] (if  
enabled via IER[5]) and causes INT to go HIGH.  
To resume transmission, an Xon1/Xon2 character must be received (in certain cases  
Xon1 and Xon2 must be received sequentially). When the correct Xon characters are  
received, IIR[4] is cleared, and the Xoff interrupt disappears.

6.3.2 TX  
5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V quad UART, 5 Mbit/s (max.) with 64-byte FIFOs  
Xoff1/Xoff2 character is transmitted when the RX FIFO has passed the halt trigger level  
programmed in TCR[3:0].  
Xon1/Xon2 character is transmitted when the RX FIFO reaches the resume trigger level  
programmed in TCR[7:4].  
The transmission of Xoff/Xon(s) follows the exact same protocol as transmission of an  
ordinary byte from the FIFO. This means that even if the word length is set to be 5, 6, or 7  
characters, then the 5, 6, or 7 least significant bits of Xoff1/Xoff2 and Xon1/Xon2 will be  
transmitted. (Note that the transmission of 5, 6, or 7 bits of a character is seldom done, but  
this functionality is included to maintain compatibility with earlier designs.)  
It is assumed that software flow control and hardware flow control will never be enabled  
simultaneously. Figure 8 shows an example of software flow control.

6.3.3.1 Assumptions  
UART1 is transmitting a large text file to UART2. Both UARTs are using software flow  
control with single character Xoff (0Fh) and Xon (0Dh) tokens. Both have Xoff threshold  
(TCR[3:0] = F) set to 60, and Xon threshold (TCR[7:4] = 8) set to 32. Both have the  
interrupt receive threshold (TLR[7:4] = D) set to 52.

UART1 begins transmission and sends 52 characters, at which point UART2 will generate  
an interrupt to its processor to service the RX FIFO, but assumes the interrupt latency is  
fairly long. UART1 will continue sending characters until a total of 60 characters have  
been sent. At this time, UART2 will transmit a 0Fh to UART1, informing UART1 to halt  
transmission. UART1 will likely send the 61st character while UART2 is sending the Xoff  
character. Now UART2 is serviced and the processor reads enough data out of the RX  
FIFO that the level drops to 32. UART2 will now send a 0Dh to UART1, informing UART1  
to resume transmission.

6.5 Interrupts  
The SC16C754B has interrupt generation and prioritization (six prioritized levels of  
interrupts) capability. The Interrupt Enable Register (IER) enables each of the six types of  
interrupts and the INT signal in response to an interrupt generation. The IER can also  
disable the interrupt system by clearing bits 7:5 and 3:0. When an interrupt is generated,  
the IIR indicates that an interrupt is pending and provides the type of interrupt through  
IIR[5:0]. Table 6 summarizes the interrupt control functions.

It is important to note that for the framing error, parity error, and break conditions, LSR[7]  
generates the interrupt. LSR[7] is set when there is an error anywhere in the RX FIFO,  
and is cleared only when there are no more errors remaining in the FIFO. LSR[4:2] always  
represent the error status for the received character at the top of the RX FIFO. Reading  
the RX FIFO updates LSR[4:2] to the appropriate status for the new character at the top of  
the FIFO. If the RX FIFO is empty, then LSR[4:2] are all zeros.  
For the Xoff interrupt, if an Xoff flow character detection caused the interrupt, the interrupt  
is cleared by an Xon flow character detection. If a special character detection caused the  
interrupt, the interrupt is cleared by a read of the IIR.

6.5.1 Interrupt mode operation  
In interrupt mode (if any bit of IER[3:0] is ‘1’) the processor is informed of the status of the  
receiver and transmitter by an interrupt signal, INT. Therefore, it is not necessary to  
continuously poll the Line Status Register (LSR) to see if any interrupt needs to be  
serviced. Figure 9 shows interrupt mode operation.

6.5.2 Polled mode operation  
In polled mode (IER[3:0] = 0000) the status of the receiver and transmitter can be  
checked by polling the Line Status Register (LSR). This mode is an alternative to the FIFO  
interrupt mode of operation where the status of the receiver and transmitter is  
automatically known by means of interrupts sent to the CPU. Figure 10 shows FIFO polled  
mode operation.

6.6 DMA operation  
There are two modes of DMA operation, DMA mode 0 or DMA mode 1, selected by  
FCR[3].  
In DMA mode 0 or FIFO disable (FCR[0] = 0) DMA occurs in single character transfers. In  
DMA mode 1, multi-character (or block) DMA transfers are managed to relieve the  
processor for longer periods of time.  
6.6.1 Single DMA transfers (DMA mode 0/FIFO disable)

6.6.1.2 Receiver  
RXRDY is active when there is at least one character in the FIFO. It becomes inactive  
when the receiver is empty.

TXRDY is active when there is a trigger level number of spaces available. It becomes  
inactive when the FIFO is full.  
6.6.2.2 Receiver  
RXRDY becomes active when the trigger level has been reached, or when a time-out  
interrupt occurs. It will go inactive when the FIFO is empty or an error in the RX FIFO is  
flagged by LSR[7].  
6.7 Sleep mode  
Sleep mode is an enhanced feature of the SC16C754B UART. It is enabled when EFR[4],  
the enhanced functions bit, is set and when IER[4] is set. Sleep mode is entered when:  
The serial data input line, RX, is idle (see Section 6.8 “Break and time-out  
conditions”).  
The TX FIFO and TX shift register are empty.  
There are no interrupts pending except THR and time-out interrupts.  
Remark: Sleep mode will not be entered if there is data in the RX FIFO.  
In Sleep mode, the UART clock and baud rate clock are stopped. Since most registers are  
clocked using these clocks, the power consumption is greatly reduced. The UART will  
wake up when any change is detected on the RX line, when there is any change in the  
state of the modem input pins, or if data is written to the TX FIFO.  
Remark: Writing to the divisor latches, DLL and DLM, to set the baud clock, must not be  
done during Sleep mode. Therefore, it is advisable to disable Sleep mode using IER[4]  
before writing to DLL or DLM.

6.8 Break and time-out conditions  
An RX idle condition is detected when the receiver line, RX, has been HIGH for  
4 character time. The receiver line is sampled midway through each bit.  
When a break condition occurs, the TX line is pulled LOW. A break condition is activated  
by setting LCR[6].  
6.9 Programmable baud rate generator  
The SC16C754B UART contains a programmable baud generator that takes any clock  
input and divides it by a divisor in the range between 1 and (216 1). An additional  
divide-by-4 prescaler is also available and can be selected by MCR[7], as shown in  
Figure 13. The output frequency of the baud rate generator is 16 × the baud rate. The  
formula for the divisor is given in Equation 1:  
XTAL1 crystal input frequency  
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
prescaler  
divisor =  
(1)  
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------  
(desired baud rate × 16)  
Where:  
prescaler = 1, when MCR[7] is set to 0 after reset (divide-by-1 clock selected)  
prescaler = 4, when MCR[7] is set to 1 after reset (divide-by-4 clock selected).  
Remark: The default value of prescaler after reset is divide-by-1.  
Figure 13 shows the internal prescaler and baud rate generator circuitry.

DLL and DLM must be written to in order to program the baud rate. DLL and DLM are the  
least significant and most significant byte of the baud rate divisor. If DLL and DLM are  
both zero, the UART is effectively disabled, as no baud clock will be generated.  
Remark: The programmable baud rate generator is provided to select both the transmit  
and receive clock rates.  
Table 7 and Table 8 show the baud rate and divisor correlation for crystal with frequency  
1.8432 MHz and 3.072 MHz, respectively.

5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V quad UART, 5 Mbit/s (max.) with 64-byte FIFOs  
Remark: Refer to the notes under Table 9 for more register access information.  
7.1 Receiver Holding Register (RHR)  
The receiver section consists of the Receiver Holding Register (RHR) and the Receiver  
Shift Register (RSR). The RHR is actually a 64-byte FIFO. The RSR receives serial data  
from the RX terminal. The data is converted to parallel data and moved to the RHR. The  
receiver section is controlled by the Line Control Register (LCR). If the FIFO is disabled,  
location zero of the FIFO is used to store the characters.  
Remark: In this case, characters are overwritten if overflow occurs.  
If overflow occurs, characters are lost. The RHR also stores the error status bits  
associated with each character.  
7.2 Transmit Holding Register (THR)  
The transmitter section consists of the Transmit Holding Register (THR) and the Transmit  
Shift Register (TSR). The THR is actually a 64-byte FIFO. The THR receives data and  
shifts it into the TSR, where it is converted to serial data and moved out on the TX  
terminal. If the FIFO is disabled, the FIFO is still used to store the byte. Characters are  
lost if overflow occurs.

7.3 FIFO Control Register (FCR)  
This is a write-only register that is used for enabling the FIFOs, clearing the FIFOs, setting  
transmitter and receiver trigger levels, and selecting the type of DMA signalling. Table 11  
shows FIFO control register bit settings.

logic 0 = no overrun error (normal default condition)  
logic 1 = overrun error has occurred  
Data in receiver.  
logic 0 = no data in receive FIFO (normal default condition)  
logic 1 = at least one character in the RX FIFO  
When the LSR is read, LSR[4:2] reflect the error bits (BI, FE, PE) of the character at the  
top of the RX FIFO (next character to be read). The LSR[4:2] registers do not physically  
exist, as the data read from the RX FIFO is output directly onto the output data bus,  
DI[4:2], when the LSR is read. Therefore, errors in a character are identified by reading  
the LSR and then reading the RHR.  
LSR[7] is set when there is an error anywhere in the RX FIFO, and is cleared only when  
there are no more errors remaining in the FIFO.  
Reading the LSR does not cause an increment of the RX FIFO read pointer. The RX FIFO  
read pointer is incremented by reading the RHR.

7.10 Enhanced Feature Register (EFR)  
This 8-bit register enables or disables the enhanced features of the UART. Table 19 shows  
the enhanced feature register bit settings.  
Table 19. Enhanced feature register bits description  
Bit  
Symbol  
Description  
7
EFR[7]  
CTS flow control enable.  
logic 0 = CTS flow control is disabled (normal default condition)  
logic 1 = CTS flow control is enabled. Transmission will stop when a HIGH  
signal is detected on the CTS pin.  
6
EFR[6]  
EFR[5]  
EFR[4]  
RTS flow control enable.  
logic 0 = RTS flow control is disabled (normal default condition)  
logic 1 = RTS flow control is enabled. The RTS pin goes HIGH when the  
receiver FIFO HALT trigger level TCR[3:0] is reached, and goes LOW when  
the receiver FIFO RESUME transmission trigger level TCR[7:4] is reached.  
5
Special character detect.  
logic 0 = special character detect disabled (normal default condition)  
logic 1 = special character detect enabled. Received data is compared with  
Xoff2 data. If a match occurs, the received data is transferred to FIFO and  
IIR[4] is set to a logic 1 to indicate a special character has been detected.  
4
Enhanced functions enable bit.  
logic 0 = disables enhanced functions and writing to IER[7:4], FCR[5:4],  
MCR[7:5].  
logic 1 = enables the enhanced function IER[7:4], FCR[5:4], and MCR[7:5]  
can be modified, that is, this bit is therefore a write enable.  
3:0  
EFR[3:0] Combinations of software flow control can be selected by programming these  
bits. See Table 3 “Software flow control options (EFR[3:0])”.  
7.11 Divisor latches (DLL, DLM)  
These are two 8-bit registers which store the 16-bit divisor for generation of the baud clock  
in the baud rate generator. DLM stores the most significant part of the divisor. DLL stores  
the least significant part of the divisor.  
Note that DLL and DLM can only be written to before Sleep mode is enabled, that is,  
before IER[4] is set.

5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V quad UART, 5 Mbit/s (max.) with 64-byte FIFOs  
7.12 Transmission Control Register (TCR)  
This 8-bit register is used to store the RX FIFO threshold levels to stop/start transmission  
during hardware/software flow control. Table 20 shows transmission control register bit  
settings.  
Table 20. Transmission control register bits description  
Bit  
7:4  
3:0  
Symbol  
Description  
TCR[7:4] RX FIFO trigger level to resume transmission [(0 to 60) bytes].  
TCR[3:0] RX FIFO trigger level to halt transmission [(0 to 60) bytes].  
TCR trigger levels are available from 0 to 60 bytes with a granularity of four.  
Remark: TCR can only be written to when EFR[4] = 1 and MCR[6] = 1. The programmer  
must program the TCR such that TCR[3:0] > TCR[7:4]. There is no built-in hardware  
check to make sure this condition is met. Also, the TCR must be programmed with this  
condition before auto-RTS or software flow control is enabled to avoid spurious operation  
of the device.  
7.13 Trigger Level Register (TLR)  
This 8-bit register is used to store the transmit and received FIFO trigger levels used for  
DMA and interrupt generation. Trigger levels from 4 to 60 can be programmed with a  
granularity of 4. Table 21 shows trigger level register bit settings.  
Table 21. Trigger level register bits description  
Bit  
7:4  
3:0  
Symbol  
TLR[7:4]  
TLR[3:0]  
Description  
RX FIFO trigger levels (4 to 60), number of characters available.  
TX FIFO trigger levels (4 to 60), number of spaces available.  
Remark: TLR can only be written to when EFR[4] = 1 and MCR[6] = 1. If TLR[3:0] or  
TLR[7:4] are logic 0, the selectable trigger levels via the FIFO Control Register (FCR) are  
used for the transmit and receive FIFO trigger levels. Trigger levels from 4 to 60 bytes are  
available with a granularity of four. The TLR should be programmed for N4, where N is the  
desired trigger level.  
7.14 FIFO Ready register (FIFO Rdy)  
The FIFO Rdy register provides real-time status of the transmit and receive FIFOs of both  
channels.  
Table 22. FIFO ready register bits description  
Bit  
Symbol  
Description  
7:4  
FIFO Rdy[7:4] 0 = there are less than a RX trigger level number of characters in the  
RX FIFO  
1 = the RX FIFO has more than a RX trigger level number of characters  
available for reading or a time-out condition has occurred  
3:0  
FIFO Rdy[3:0] 0 = there are less than a TX trigger level number of spaces available in  
the TX FIFO  
1 = there are at least a TX trigger level number of spaces available in the  
TX FIFO

5 V, 3.3 V and 2.5 V quad UART, 5 Mbit/s (max.) with 64-byte FIFOs  
The FIFO ready register is a read-only register that can be accessed when any of the four  
UARTs is selected CSA to CSD = 0, MCR[2] (FIFO Rdy Enable) is a logic 1, and loopback  
is disabled. The address is 111.  
8. Programmer’s guide  
The base set of registers that is used during high-speed data transfer have a  
straightforward access method. The extended function registers require special access  
bits to be decoded along with the address lines. The following guide will help with  
programming these registers. Note that the descriptions below are for individual register  
access. Some streamlining through interleaving can be obtained when programming all  
the registers.

13. Soldering of SMD packages  
This text provides a very brief insight into a complex technology. A more in-depth account  
of soldering ICs can be found in Application Note AN10365 “Surface mount reflow  
soldering description”.  
13.1 Introduction to soldering  
Soldering is one of the most common methods through which packages are attached to  
Printed Circuit Boards (PCBs), to form electrical circuits. The soldered joint provides both  
the mechanical and the electrical connection. There is no single soldering method that is  
ideal for all IC packages. Wave soldering is often preferred when through-hole and  
Surface Mount Devices (SMDs) are mixed on one printed wiring board; however, it is not  
suitable for fine pitch SMDs. Reflow soldering is ideal for the small pitches and high  
densities that come with increased miniaturization.  
13.2 Wave and reflow soldering  
Wave soldering is a joining technology in which the joints are made by solder coming from  
a standing wave of liquid solder. The wave soldering process is suitable for the following:  
Through-hole components  
Leaded or leadless SMDs, which are glued to the surface of the printed circuit board  
Not all SMDs can be wave soldered. Packages with solder balls, and some leadless  
packages which have solder lands underneath the body, cannot be wave soldered. Also,  
leaded SMDs with leads having a pitch smaller than ~0.6 mm cannot be wave soldered,  
due to an increased probability of bridging.  
The reflow soldering process involves applying solder paste to a board, followed by  
component placement and exposure to a temperature profile. Leaded packages,  
packages with solder balls, and leadless packages are all reflow solderable.  
Key characteristics in both wave and reflow soldering are:  
Board specifications, including the board finish, solder masks and vias  
Package footprints, including solder thieves and orientation  
The moisture sensitivity level of the packages  
Package placement  
Inspection and repair  
Lead-free soldering versus SnPb soldering  
13.3 Wave soldering  
Key characteristics in wave soldering are:  
Process issues, such as application of adhesive and flux, clinching of leads, board  
transport, the solder wave parameters, and the time during which components are  
exposed to the wave  
Solder bath specifications, including temperature and impurities

13.4 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 28) than a SnPb process, thus  
reducing the process window  
Solder paste printing issues including smearing, release, and adjusting the process  
window for a mix of large and small components on one board  
Reflow temperature profile; this profile includes preheat, reflow (in which the board is  
heated to the peak temperature) and cooling down. It is imperative that the peak  
temperature is high enough for the solder to make reliable solder joints (a solder paste  
characteristic). In addition, the peak temperature must be low enough that the  
packages and/or boards are not damaged. The peak temperature of the package  
depends on package thickness and volume and is classified in accordance with  
Table 27 and 28

Moisture sensitivity precautions, as indicated on the packing, must be respected at all  
times.  
Studies have shown that small packages reach higher temperatures during reflow  
soldering, see Figure 28.
