What is the pad surface finish on these boards? I know OSP and silver finishes have a shorter shelf life than HASL or gold. We do not use OSP or silver on our boards so I don't know what to look for visually on the pads when they have exceeded the

We are reviewing our shelf life policy and have the following items listed as shelf life sensitive: Printed circuit boards, peelable solder mask, solder paste, moisture sensitive parts, multiwire printed circuit boards from Icon or Hitachi, NiCd batt

Nope -- we don't shelf life control roll solder here. Just threw that on the list as a possible. I don't think it would be necessary.

Is there any industry standards regarding shelf life for components? Also do they very between component type packaging? Thanks

we have a big inventory of over-shelf-life PCB, most of them are stored over 2 years. Could we ensure all these over 2 years PCB will not cause significant quality issue after assembly? and where could I find the related specification?

Shelf life numbers don't mean dip. Are the parts solderable per ANSI/J-STD-002, Solderability Tests for Component Leads, Terminations, Lugs, Terminals, and Wires? If yes, go solder the parts. If no, get better parts from your supplier.
