The CPC1824 is a monolithic photovoltaic string
of solar cells on Silicon-On-Insulator (SOI). This
patented design allows for higher voltage solar cells
in a compact package. When operating in sunlight or
a bright artificial light environment the optical energy
will activate the cell array, and generate a voltage at
the output. The solar cells are capable of generating a
floating source voltage and current sufficient to drive
and power CMOS ICs, logic gates, and/or provide
"trickle charge" for battery applications.

Manufacturing Information
Moisture Sensitivity
All plastic encapsulated semiconductor packages are susceptible to moisture ingression. IXYS Integrated
Circuits Division classified all of its plastic encapsulated devices for moisture sensitivity according to
the latest version of the joint industry standard, IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020, in force at the time of product
evaluation. We test all of our products to the maximum conditions set forth in the standard, and guarantee proper
operation of our devices when handled according to the limitations and information in that standard as well as to any
limitations set forth in the information or standards referenced below.
Failure to adhere to the warnings or limitations as established by the listed specifications could result in reduced
product performance, reduction of operable life, and/or reduction of overall reliability.
This product carries a Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) rating as shown below, and should be handled according
to the requirements of the latest version of the joint industry standard IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033.
Device Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) Rating
CPC1824N MSL 3
ESD Sensitivity
This product is ESD Sensitive, and should be handled according to the industry standard JESD-625.
Reflow Profile
This product has a maximum body temperature and time rating as shown below. All other guidelines of J-STD-020
must be observed.
Device Maximum Temperature x Time
CPC1824N 260ºC for 30 seconds
Board Wash
IXYS Integrated Circuits Division recommends the use of no-clean flux formulations. However, board washing
to remove flux residue is acceptable, and the use of a short drying bake may be necessary. Chlorine-based or
Fluorine-based solvents or fluxes should not be used. Cleaning methods that employ ultrasonic energy should not be
used.
