DRV5032: specific value for max wave solder time

Coeleen,

Thank you for reaching out on E2E.  Please see the documents below for more guidance on wave soldering:

Coeleen,

In the referred document, the maximum wave solder exposure time was 5 seconds per wave.  If two waves were applied then the combined time could be 10 seconds.  However, the solder dip method which used the 10 second exposure was found to not be an ideal method for applying solder as it over stressed the package.

Thanks,

Scott
