Lid Attach

APPLICATION NOTE :
SEC & SEC40 Package Covers

Cover Attachment Procedure. Lids supplied with the SEC packages are ceramic with an attached epoxy preform. The epoxy coated ceramic lids should be stored in a clean, dry environment. Covers have a shelf life of 6 months if stored at room temperature, and a shelf life of 12 months, if stored at +5°C, or lower (refrigerated). Ceramic lids are installed using the following steps:

1. Preheat oven to 150°C.
2. Allow lids to warm up to room temperature;
3. Handle lids with tweezers or finger cots in a clean area to avoid contamination;
4. Position cover on the package and secure with a spring clip, or weight (approximately 2 pounds of weight or clamp force);
5. Cure clamped parts for 15 minutes (at temperature) in the 150°C oven;
6. Remove the assembly from the oven and remove clips.

Cleaning of ceramic lids before assembly is not recommended!
