IPC J-STD-020C:2004

Now updated for lead free assembly and rework! This standard identifies the classification level of nonhermetic solid state surface mount devices that are sensitive to moisture-induced stress. This standard now covers components to be processed at higher temperatures for lead free assembly. It is used to determine what classification level should be used for initial reliability qualification. These devices can be properly packaged, stored, and handled to avoid subsequent thermal/mechanical damage during solder reflow attachment and/or repair operation.
