The IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033 standard defines storage, handling, and floor life requirements for moisture sensitive devices.
Key requirements include:
- Controlled storage after bag opening
- Floor life monitoring
- Baking procedures if exposure limits are exceeded
- Documentation of exposure conditions
Floor Life Reset Process for MSD
If an MSD exceeds its allowed exposure time:
- The component must be baked under controlled temperature conditions.
- After baking, floor life can be reset.
- Controlled dry storage must resume immediately.
Proper humidity control systems simplify compliance with IPC JEDEC J-STD-033 C storage requirements.
