Setup Go/NoGo Test

All Go/NoGo tests are based on SEMC approved test instruments to be installed with: a SEMC Go/NoGo test script to be downloaded from vendor site a locally written Go/NoGo test script and the test result has to be verified against the Go/NoGo Testing. Non-SEMC test scripts need to be approved by SEMC!

2.1

Stand-Alone vs. SERP

The handling and control of the test instrument can be done in two ways, Stand-Alone or SERP.

STAND-ALONE
The test instrument controls the entire testing, and: - a relatively inexpensive test instrument can be used - is suitable for service centers not being authorized to perform calibrations

SERP
The test instrument executes the testing but is controlled by the SERP application of a computer, and: - a rather expensive test instrument must be used - is suitable for service centers being authorized to carry out calibrations (no need for a separate Stand-Alone test instrument)

2.2

Antenna Coupler vs. Direct Line

The input readings to the test instruments can be setup in two different ways: - Antenna Coupler (a radiated test inside a shield box) - Direct Line (a conductive test from the phones external antenna connector, with or without an RF Fixture, depending on the phone model to be tested).

ANTENNA COUPLER
Testing with an Antenna Coupler is considered to be the best alternative: - testing can be done on all phones - the shield box isolates the phone and makes it non-susceptible to exterior interference - the entire phone is tested Testing can be done with a fully charged battery or a dummy battery with external power supply (if the shield box is prepared for this). However, testing with a fully charged battery is the preferred method, since the presence of a standard battery may affect the readings in a more accurate way.

DIRECT LINE
Testing with Direct Line implies certain limitations: - testing can only be done on phones with an external antenna connector - the phone may be susceptible to exterior interference - the function of the phones internal antenna is not tested If a Direct Line test says Go, the phone ought to be tested with an Antenna Coupler and if this test says NoGo, there is probably an antenna related problem with the phone.

Antenna Coupler Testing

The grid positioning plate of the shield box, containing the antenna coupler, includes a number of holes arranged in a grid, X-axis = A to R and Y-axis = 1 to 25, where the grid positioning holder will be placed.

Place the grid positioning holder with its reference point (see arrow) in the matrix position stated in the product specific document Tests & Calibration for the phone. Insert a test USIM (a standard test SIM can be used for GSM phones only) that is compatible with the instrument, attach a fully charged battery and the battery cover. Place the phone in the antenna coupler as shown in Tests & Calibration and Rohde & Schwarz grind plat for SERP and close the lid of the shield box. Start the test instrument, run the proper test script and follow the instructions on the test instrument.

The product specific documents Tests & Calibration will include a picture similar to the adjacent one that clearly specifies how to position the grid positioning holder and the phone.

Troubleshooting Directions

GENERAL
The product specific document Troubleshooting Guide - electrical should be used only after the actions from the Troubleshooting Guide - mechanical repair have been exhausted for the specific symptom. The purpose of the Troubleshooting Guide - electrical is to indicate the electrical level repair actions associated with the different failure symptoms. For symptoms that have multiple repair actions, the repair actions are listed in order of their probability of creating a successful repair.

EXAMPLE

Power On/Off
Symptom: Current draw when powered off V0302 N5700 N7520 Replace: The first action has the highest probability, and subsequent actions have lower probabilities, e.g. V0302 N5700 N7520. The intention is for the repair technician to implement the first repair action and then retest the phone. If the phone continues to fail the same test, then the technician should continue to the second repair action. If the phone continues to fail the same test after all of the repair actions are exhausted, then the phone will be considered not repairable at this level.

EQUIPMENT & MEASUREMENTS


Voltage, current, and resistance information is provided for some symptoms to enable faster repairs. A power supply with digital current display and a DMM (Digital MultiMeter) are required for these purposes as shown in the pictures below. Purchase of such equipment and performing these measurements are optional but recommended.

Perform current measurements using a dummy battery and power supply with digital current display. The phone should be fully assembled (battery cover not required).

Moisture & Baking

Some components in the products are moisture sensitive and must be baked prior to use, if they have been exposed to air. These components and their moisture sensitivity levels are specified in the product specific document Component Replacement, section Component Placing. Below is a brief description of moisture sensitivity levels, but repair centers should visit the JEDEC website for more details before reworking moisture sensitive components. Search for the most recent version of the IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033A standard online at http://www.jedec.org

LEVEL 1
- unlimited floor life, does not require dry pack or re-baking

LEVEL 2
- 1 year floor life

LEVEL 2A
- 4 weeks floor life

LEVEL 3
- 168 hours floor life

LEVEL 4
- 72 hours floor life

LEVEL 5
- 48 hours floor life

LEVEL 5A
- 24 hours floor life

LEVEL 6

COMMON TO LEVEL 2, 2A ,3 ,4 ,5 ,5A, 6


- 30oC at 60% relative humidity - shipped in dry pack - must be re-baked after being opened If floor life is exceeded Parts shipped from a Sony Ericsson parts warehouse are most likely not shipped in dry packs. This means that the time elapsed between placing the order and receiving the parts must be considered as time exposed to the environment. Different moisture sensitivity levels and exposure times create the need for different baking temperatures and times. For more information regarding baking, refer to: SEMC PBA Repair Requirement Specification Repair Centers, 1/1056-LXE110 0378.

Soldering
Lead-Free Soldering

All recent Sony Ericsson mobile phones are manufactured with lead-free solder and lead-free components! During electrical repair, it is critical to make sure that no lead is introduced. This symbol indicates that the product is lead- free.

All lead-free PBAs will be marked with this symbol.

A lead-free work area must be set up completely separated from work areas that are used to make lead repairs. The lead-free work area must also be clearly labeled with the lead free symbol as shown in the adjacent picture. The items on this desk must remain lead-free. They must be adequately labeled to make their lead-free status clearly and easily recognized.

LFS (lead-free solder paste) characteristics: - high melting point (typically 220C) - low wetability - high surface tension - difficult to spread - recommended tip temperature = 360C When servicing PBAs that have been manufactured with LFS (lead-free solder paste), LFS must be used. If not, there is a high risk for unreliable soldering joints. Lead-free solder joints are more difficult to inspect as they do not have shiny surfaces like leaded solder joints and lead-free solder does not flow as well as leaded solder, so some of the solder pad areas may remain exposed.

Temperature Issues

HOT AIR GUN TEMPERATURE REQUIREMENTS


The air temperature must not exceed 360oC. This temperature should be measured 5 mm from the nozzle outlet. If it is not possible to remove and/or solder with 360oC, another repair process (e.g. BGA rework, soldering iron, bottom heater) must be considered to ensure a high process control. A temperature being too high can cause damage and cracks due to the thermal stress on sensitive components, e.g. ceramic components like capacitors.

SOLDERING TIP TEMPERATURE REQUIREMENTS


The soldering tip temperature must be minimum 310oC and maximum 360oC. A temperature being too high can cause damage and cracks due to the thermal stress on sensitive components, e.g. ceramic components like capacitors.

BOTTOM HEAT REQUIREMENTS


In certain cases some components may require a bottom heater during repair in order to pre-heat the board and to level out the T on the PBA. This will also minimize the thermal stress. The temperature on the PBA surface must not exceed 150oC to minimize inter-metallic growth and thermal stress on the PWB.

BGA REWORK SPECIFICATIONS


For all components that require the use of a BGA Rework Station, follow the: Technical Requirement, Generic document; Space ID: 1207-2949 and Heat treatment document, product specific (available only when there is support for BGA profiles on CSPN) For more information regarding generic repair methods, refer to: SEMC PBA Repair Requirement Specification Repair Centers, 1/1056-LXE110 0378

Go/NoGo Testing
Overview

This section provides information for centers who want to write their own test scripts as opposed to using SEMC scripts. Non-SEMC test scripts need to be approved by SEMC! The test requirements for UMTS and/or GSM phones using an antenna coupler or direct line connection are included in this section. These test sequences should be used as an arrival and verification test of the radio functionality. Tests are done in signaling mode, i.e. a call has been established to the test instrument. The test instrument controls the transceiver unit. RF performance is measured with an antenna coupler or the direct line connection, whichever method is selected. This document includes all available bands! Most phone models do not include all these bands! The test should be designed so those users with little or no system expertise can perform accurate testing. The measurements should run automatically, though a certain amount of manual work is included (and mandatory), such as phone call setup (i.e. dialing a number). It is recommended to have the measurements results stored or printed out. It should be possible to change the channels used in testing due to possible local radio interference. The ranges for these settings are specified under the Channel Allocation Table. All functions and settings should be protected in such a manner that the end-user cannot directly change them. (For example, a password or encrypted settings file.) The test instrument must be capable of using different attenuation factors for RX and TX and it must also be possible to use various attenuation factors for different channels in each band. The attenuation factors that should be used are found in the product specific document Tests & Calibration!

SEQUENCE
It is most important that a fully charged battery is used, otherwise there is a high risk for incorrect test results! 1. Initialize the instrument 2. Insert a test USIM (a standard test SIM may be used for GSM testing only) and attach a fully charged standard battery or a dummy battery with external power to the phone 3. Attach the RF Fixture 4. Connect the RF cable to the phone and the test instrument 5. Turn on the phone and wait for registration 6. Set up a call to the instrument or let the instrument call the phone 7. Audio loopback - set power level to high - activate audio loopback in the instrument - operator must acknowledge passed or failed before the test is continued 8. On-going test - refer to the measurement and test limits on the following pages and the product specific document Tests & Calibration 9. Test end - disconnect the call and end the test
