Bev,

 

The way things are going my guess is anything less than 200 hours is
Just-In-Time-Solderability.

Technetters,

As if we didn't have enough problems with really, really old parts; part
numbers; moisture sensitivity; a few instances of stupid finishes as
suppliers go lead free; but now I have a new one - for me anyways.  We
have received virgin parts where the label on the bag says they only
have a SOLDERABILITY LIFETIME of 168 hours after they are taken out of
the bag!  This is not a case where one can recover them by putting them
in an oven afterwards!  Anyone else seeing this new pain-in-the-neck
development?

regards,

Bev Christian
