FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Q1: What is the main challenge when soldering CLCC packages?
A1: The primary challenge is managing the thermo-mechanical stress caused by the mismatch in the Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) between the ceramic package and the PCB. For reliable, long-term solder joints, it is crucial to use a PCB material with a compatible CTE or employ other stress-mitigation techniques in your assembly.
Q2: Can CLCCs have a thermal pad on the bottom?
A2: Yes. Many CLCC designs can incorporate a large, metallized ground/thermal pad on the bottom of the package. This pad can be soldered directly to the PCB to create an excellent, low-resistance thermal path for high-power devices.
