The IPC-J-STD (-001,003,006)solder specs talk to solderability life etc. -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Gregg Owens Sent: Wednesday, November 04, 2009 6:58 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [TN] Component Shelf Life Paymon: "It depends." It depends on whether the components are sealed in a ESD bag (they should be), storage method, environmental conditions, etc. I am not aware of any IPC document, however the old MIL-SPECs specified shelf life or at least Solderability duration. I am sure some of the young at heart will jump in here....
