Application Tips
Due to the low bond strength of the tape, the user may observe some lifting on the edges after the PCB has gone through
the process.  The following suggestions may be used to prevent lifting:
1.  Wrap tape around the board and adhere to the back, leaving the end on the top side of the board and not
exposed to the solder wave.
2.  Use a small piece of 3M
Low Static Polyimide Film Tape 5419 to hold down the edges with minimum risk
of contamination.

Masking for chip on flex connection area during solder
reflow process.  This helps reduce contamination and
improve the ACF connection of the flex circuit to LCD bond.
A typical example is the ACF connection of Chip on Flex to
color LCD for cell phones (shown in illustration at right).
3M™ Non-Silicone High Temperature Masking Tape 5563
protects the gold fingers on the flex socket attached to the
LCD with AFC.    Acrylic adhesive used in 5563 Tape will
not contaminate the masked area with silicone that may cause
failure in the AFC connection.
