IPC-JEDEC J-STD-020 Moisture - Reflow Sensitivity Classification for Non-Hermetic Solid State Surface Mount Devices

EUROLAB, together with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IPC-JEDEC J-STD-020 testing. This classification procedure applies to all non-hermetic SMDs in packages that may be susceptible to damage during reflow of solder due to absorbed moisture.

IPC-JEDEC J-STD-020 Moisture - Reflow Sensitivity Classification for Non-Hermetic Solid State Surface Mount Devices

The term SMD as used in this standard means plastic-encapsulated surface-mount packages and other packages made of moisture-permeable materials.

The categories are intended to be used by SMD manufacturers to inform users (panel mounting operations) of the moisture sensitivity level of product devices and to ensure that appropriate handling measures are applied to switchboard mounting operations and moisture/reflow sensitive devices.

This standard cannot address all possible combinations of component, board assembly, and product design. However, the standard provides a test method and criteria for commonly used technologies. Where uncommon or specific components or technologies are required, development should include customer/manufacturer involvement and criteria should include an agreed definition of product acceptance.

The purpose of this standard is to specify the classification level for non-hermetic surface mount devices (SMDs) that are susceptible to moisture-induced stress so that the assembly can be properly packaged, stored and handled so that they are not damaged during solder reflow attachment or assembly. repair operations.

This standard can be used to determine which classification level should be used for Surface Mount Device (SMD) package qualification. Passing the criteria in this test method alone is not sufficient to guarantee long-term reliability.

MSL (moisture sensitivity level) ratings established by this standard are used to determine soaking conditions for preconditioning according to JESD22-A113.
