Hi Dave, Thanx for your reply. What is it in the process of manufacturing the capacitor that can go wrong until it can caused the chips to be chipped-off or cracks. I've encountered alot of this problem lately. First I thought it was our process t

I'll respond directly to your question about capacitor fabrication in a later posting, but more importantly and possibly more directly in response to the situation many hands touch your capacitors before you do. Each of these stockroom personnel, UP

Most of the component vendors I've dealt with will guarantee the solderability of the terminations for three years if the components are still packaged in a full reel. If the reel is part used we've kept them for 1 year and then used a wetting balanc

Semi conductor devices last for 5-10 years or more when in use. Since those parts are in stock and are not in use they are considered in good condition. The only concern that you got is how will you process them. We had the same problem before and it

Hello all, Can anyone advise if any standard covers ENIG plated boards shelf life? Or share what you do for bare boards storage and expiration criteria?

ENIG boards have low shelf life as oxidation starts showing up quickly on the solderable areas. We usually keep them vacuum packed till they are ready to be assembled. Most PCB manufacturers will send them vacuum packed.

If they are vacuumed and they approach 6months or 1 year mark, what would you do?

Probably preform some sort of solderability evaluation on the PCBs.

Thank you Stephen... I also mistaken it with Immersion Silver.
