  • Hello JH,

    According to our Moisture Sensitivity Level Search Tool, this device is a MSL level 2 device, which has a floor life of 1 year. The floor life is maximum time period from the opening of the moisture barrier bags (MBB) to the final reflow soldering process. If the floor time is exceed, or the Humidity Indicator Card (HIC) indicates excessive moisture after the MBB is opened, then baking is required prior to any reflow process.

    For detailed information on when and how this should be baked, refer to Section 7 Drying of Components and to Table 5 Reference Conditions for Drying Mounted and Unmounted SMD Packages (as per IPC-JEDEC J-STD-033) of our AN-2029 Handling and Process Recommendations document.

    Best Regards,
