Ashok: The real concern about moisture sensitivity is in plastic packaged parts. The plastic packaging used to manufacture surface mount technology devices absorb moisture from the environment. The high temperatures involved in vapor phase/reflow

What�s the best storage method in controlling SMT parts ? Currently we get all the parts from our stores for certain jobs and stock them in our Reel Racks with their designated part numbers. When they�re in SMT area they all get mixed up with some of

Most places I've seen don't do anything special. But then again most places only have chip components on the bottom of their boards along with some thru-hole. The best way to find out if you are going to delaminate is to talk to the board manufactu

Anyone have any ideas as how to track the amount of air exposure to SRAMS etc as thay move from stores onto the production floor. i am looking for ideas as how to track the exposure time from the time they are taken out of ther packaging to the time

At Altos Engineering we do a lot of process testing of our TVP drying systems for demoisturizing. We store test devices in metalized vapor-proof bags. Instead of heat sealing, we use Croc-Clamps to seal the bags. They have been tested for sealing eff

Chris, Two points of perspective are: 1 Solderability: The shelf life of components has elapsed when they are no longer solderable. There's tons of variables that affect this, but keys are: * Intermetalics grow as a function of temperature. * Th

Hi Pat, is the soldering Ok when you solder them by hand ? We use some larger ferrite beads with no problems in reflow but I must say that we use a vapour phase and only max 5 parts/PCB. They do have a high thermal capacity and you use a lot of them,
