Antenna information

Antenna types

TYBT8 uses an external spring antenna, and the specific gain and size can be customized according to customer requirements.

Antenna interference reduction

To ensure optimal RF performance, it is recommended that the antenna on the module be at least 15 mm away from other metal parts. If the antenna is wrapped with metal materials, the wireless signal will be significantly attenuated, thereby deteriorating the RF performance. Because the module is installed as a plug-in, reserve enough space for the antenna.

Production instructions

  • For the in-line module developed by Tuya, wave soldering equipment is most preferred and manual soldering is less preferred. After being unpacked, the module must be soldered within 24 hours. Otherwise, it must be put into the drying cupboard where the RH is not greater than 10%, or it needs to be packaged under vacuum again and record the exposure time (the total exposure time cannot exceed 168 hours).

  • Soldering equipment and materials:

    • Wave soldering equipment
    • Wave soldering fixture
    • Constant-temperature soldering iron
    • Tin bar, tin wire, and flux
    • Oven temperature tester
  • Baking equipment:

    • Cabinet oven
    • Anti-static heat-resistant pallets
    • Anti-static heat-resistant gloves
  • The module needs to be baked in the following cases:

    • The vacuum packing bag was found to be damaged before being unpacked.
    • There is no humidity indicator card (HIC) in the vacuum packing bag.
    • After being unpacked, 10% and above circles on the HIC become pink.
    • The total exposure time has been more than 168 hours since unpacking.
    • More than 12 months have passed since the sealing date of the bag.
  • Baking settings:

    • Temperature: 40°C and ≤ 5% RH for reel package and 125°C and ≤5% RH for tray package (please use the heat-resistant tray rather than plastic container)
    • Time: 168 hours for reel package and 12 hours for tray package
    • Alarm temperature: 50°C for reel package and 135°C for tray package
    • Production-ready temperature after natural cooling: < 36°C
    • Re-baking situation: If a module remains unused for over 168 hours after being baked, it needs to be baked again.
    • If a batch of modules is not baked within 168 hours, do not use wave soldering to solder them. Because these modules are Level-3 moisture-sensitive devices, they are very likely to get damp when exposed beyond the allowable time. In this case, if they are soldered at high temperatures, it may result in device failure or poor soldering.
  • In the whole production process, take electrostatic discharge (ESD) protective measures.

  • To guarantee the quality of products, you must pay attention to the following items:

    • The amount of soldering flux.
    • The height of the wave peak.
    • Whether the tin slag and copper content in the wave soldering tank exceed standards.
    • Whether the window and thickness of the wave soldering fixture are appropriate.
    • Whether the wave soldering oven temperature curve is reasonable.

Recommended oven temperature curve and temperature

For oven temperature setting, refer to oven temperatures for wave soldering. The peak temperature is 260°C±5°C. The wave soldering temperature curve is shown below:

Peak contact time 3 to 5s NA NA
Temperature of tin cylinder 260±5°C NA NA
Ramp-up slope ≤2°C/s NA NA
Ramp-down slope ≤6°C/s NA NA

Storage conditions

Storage conditions for a delivered module are as follows:

  • The moisture-proof bag is placed in an environment where the temperature is below 40°C and the relative humidity is lower than 90%.

  • The shelf life of a dry-packaged product is 12 months from the date when the product is packaged and sealed.

  • The package contains a humidity indicator card (HIC).
