moisture sensitive part changes rating will involve process/material change.
If it is so, your engineering department normally should be notified
(package style, material change etc.).  Your product dwg notes will change
accordingly.  Where is my $1000 (I assume it is US dollar)?  please mail it
to my attention.
Thank you very much.
