Jim,

all plastic packages are MSDs. You have to contact the manufacturer to have the specifics, or, if you are lucky you are going to see the MSD level on the bags when you get the part.

Good luck,

Ioan

Subject: [TN] Are TSSOP-8 packages moisture sensitive


Are TSSOP-8 packages susceptible to moisture?  We have a chip
manufacture offering a reel of a TSSOP component that has been on their
shelf since late '04'.  The component is a N-Channel MOSFET.  By the
time we receive them, it will be late this year, should I bake them when
we get ready to use to be safe?  
 
Thanks,
