Product Handling

8.1 Storage Conditions

  • The products sealed in moisture barrier bags (MBB) should be stored in a non-condensing atmospheric environment of < 40 °C and /90%RH. The module is rated at the moisture sensitivity level (MSL) of 3.
  • After unpacking, the module must be soldered within 168 hours with the factory conditions 25±5 °C and /60%RH. If the above conditions are not met, the module needs to be baked.

8.2 Electrostatic Discharge (ESD)

  • Human body model (HBM): ±2000 V
  • Charged-device model (CDM): ±500 V)
