Hi folks, I was wondering what the combined wisdom was on the humidity effect on the MSD control required by the Jedec std. The std works on a relative humidity of 65%, if my RH is only say 30% because of factory environments how do I easily factor

Yes, the RoHS is just EU protectionism. We should have told them in the beginning that we will not participate. And say OK then, don't buy our gear then. But we are pussys now, no balls to stand up. We cave to them EU'ers.

John, I assume you mean 60%, not 65%. J-STD-033 has a derating table for floor life which accounts for conditions other than 30C/60% RH. Table 7-1 is what you're looking for I believe. Adam
