Arnaud,

I would also like to see this identification in use, but have not.

Subject: EXTERNAL: [TN] ECA/IPC/JEDEC J-STD-075 Standard Actual Usage

TechNetters,

I would like to sense the IPC TechNet forum on the actual use of the ECA/IPC/JEDEC J-STD-075 standard in the industry.
This very well intentioned joint standard entitled "Classification of non-IC Electronic Components for Assembly Processes" targets to classify and label non-semiconductor components with respect to their sensitivity to assembly processes.
Following the standard, sensitive components are supposed to be labeled with a PSL (Process Sensitivity Level) similarly to the MSL of plastic ICs. Process sensitivity includes reflow temperature but also cleaning processes.
Facing regularly failure cases of "sensitive" components, I found this standard very useful and see it as a good curative remedy against these problems but I do not know of any component manufacturers using it.
Would someone use it or saw components following this standard?
Thank you.
