Subject: [TN] MSL on Connectors

Dear Technetters,
I am attaching an excerpt of e-Mail conversation between Molex and
myself on the subject matter of whether a connector is Moisture
sensitive. The connector reel has a "MOISTURE SENSITIVE COMPONENT"
stamp, but no other information on the original product packaging.

Has anybody else encountered this situation
before?....thoughts/comments??

From Molex:

Good Morning Amol,

Please see the response below from the product manager regarding the
moisture sensitivity for Part Number 532610371:

Yes, once the product is out of the packaging, it is moisture sensitive.
In order to protect it from moisture, we put the product in the high
barrier bag and also put the desiccants into them. Then, it is vacuumed
the air and sealed with heat.

I have attached the packaging specification which further describes the
packaging requirements for this product.

Regards,


RE: From Amol Kane

Thank you Michelle!.......so, if the part is moisture sensitive, what is
the Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) per J-STD-020 and why is that not
mentioned on the packaging?

RE: RE: From Molex

Amol,

Unfortunately, Molex does not specify MSLs for our products.

Regards,
