It depends on the application what will be considered the biggest issue to avoid (production or longterm reliability). Tin Whiskers are bit of an unknown quantity - but a more realistic problem could be dendritic growth / electromigration forming sho

Off hand, I can't recall a "formula" for how long boards could sit in a specific RH environment. I've done a couple of quick Google searches, and can find a bunch of information on the dispersion rate of moisture in various PCB materials, but, nothi
