What main Standard of MSD storing in micro-electronics industry?
Publisher:
 

1.IPC-M-109 standard 
In order to facilitate more accurate and standardized use of storage for MSD, American Federation of Electronics Industry (IPC) and electronic components Welding Engineering Society (JEDEC) joint research between the developed and issued a standard IPC-M-109 – a manual of moisture-sensitive components of standards and guidance.
IPC-M-109 uniform and revised the two previous standards: IPC-SM-786 and JEDEC-JESD-22-A112. New standard contains many important additions and changes. Moisture-sensitive components on one of the document protection are:
1.IPC/JEDEC J-STD-020 plastic integrated circuit (IC) SMD damp / reflow sensitivity classification: 
The document is to help manufacturers to determine the sensitivity of components for moisture and damp. it lists eight kinds of plant floor- life and its classification (floor life). (See table) 
 
LEVEL FLOOR LIFE
TLME CONDITIONS
1 Unlimtcd ≤30℃85%RH
2 1year ≤60℃60%RH
2a 4weeks ≤30℃60%RH
3 168hours ≤30℃60%RH
4 72hours ≤30℃60%RH
5 48 hours ≤30℃60%RH
5a 24hours ≤30℃60%RH
6 Timeon Labei(TOL) ≤30℃60%RH

2.IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033 moisture / reflow sensitive SMD's treatment, packaging, shipment and use of standards. 
This document provides recommend ways for treatment, packaging, shipping and the sensitivity of dry and moisture components. Also as a reference in the choice of dry cabinets storing MSD device
Packaging involves drying wet sensitive components and dewetting agent, humidity indicator and humidity-sensitive labels with sealed in moisture-proof bag. Stickers contain about a specific temperature and humidity within the floor-life, packaging body peak temperature (220°C or 235°C), exposure time once bag opened, details regarding to baking condition, baking procedures, and BAG sealing date.
See Table 3-1 Dry Packing Requirements

2. moisture-proofing by dry cabinet under room temperature : 
Because baking temperatures may cause oxidation on pins and metal frame or much intermetallic growth therefore it reduces solderability of pins. Therefore MSD stored in the oven by baking temperature for dehumidifying is not a method suitable for all occasions. At this point it can be stored at room temperature to be dried in dry cabinet.
To level 2-4 moisture sensitive device, after package opened, once it exposures to 30C/60% RH environment less than or equal 12 hours, need to put back to 10% RH below dry cabinet for 5 times exposure time and its floor life is considered to be recovered. (See CBI ADH dry cabinet)
To level 5-5a MSD, after package opened, once it exposures to 30C/60% RH environment less than or equal 8 hours, need to put back to 5 % RH below dry cabinet for 10 times exposure time and its floor life is considered to be recovered.(see CBI ADH dry cabinet)
So far, CBI TADH series as the new type of medium baking and anti-oxidation dry cabinet is going to be used for this application in order to reset floor-life.(Click TADH series under MSD part).
