Are you absolutely sure the problem is with the humidity? We had a problem with 3528 size leds, damaged by the pick and place nozzle because a 0.2mm mistake in the height measurement. Also, we found that several suppliers are using fake desiccant ba

hi, lately I have problem with smd leds.After reflow 2-4% of leds are broken.I think , that reason is bad storage of components, because in our stock the tape with leds have not Moisture Barrier Bags.My question is ,how you storage components, which

Hi , I think that our problem is humidity, because when I use leds from new tape ( pack in MBB ) no any defects.After that, we put opened tape in our store.After 2-3 weeks I use the same tape with leds, and we have 2-3% defective leds.I make this tes

Hi, It is very important to follow IPC JEDEC 33 specification for storage and handing of all MSDs. In many instances defects caused by excess moisture in packages is not immediately evident (pcbs may pass final test) but when pcb has been in the fiel

The standard J-STD-033B.1 addresses how to store moisture sensitive components. A dry box is a good, convenient way to store MSDs, but there are other methods to consider which are outlined in the standard. Are you sure that the problems are caused

Some things you have to be sure of... Can you guarantee the LEDS are DRY when you receive them ? They may be packed in dry bags but when was this done and has the LED distributor had them open at his site ? Using vacuum sealed dry packs is a good way

picture of the problem would help people to speculate what you do wrong

Pads look WAY oversize for the LED leads. Perhaps the solder won't go to the LED because it is spreading across the pads on the PCB instead. The board pad vs. component lead size equation I see would make me expect some starvation of the joints at t
