Handling Precaution
The encapsulation material of the LED is made of silicone
for better product reliability. As silicone is a soft material,
avoid pressing on the silicon or poking the silicon with a
sharp object as the product could be damaged and cause
premature failure. During assembly handling, the unit
should be held by the body only. Please refer to Avago
Application Note AN 5288 for additional handling infor-
mation and proper procedures.
Moisture Sensitivity
This product has a Moisture Sensitive Level 3 rating
per JEDEC J-STD-020. Refer to Avago Application Note
AN5305, Handling of Moisture Sensitive Surface Mount
Devices, for additional details and a review of proper han-
dling procedures.
A. Storage before use
- An Unopened moisture barrier bag (MBB) can be
stored at < 40 °C/90% RH for 12 months. If the actual
shelf life has exceeded 12 months and the Humidity
Indicator Card (HIC) indicates that baking is not
required, then it is safe to reow the LEDs per the
original MSL rating.
- It is recommended that the MBB is not opened
before assembly (e.g., for IQC).
B. Control after opening the MBB
- The humidity indicator card (HIC) shall be read
immediately upon opening of the MBB.
- The LEDs must be kept at < 30 °C/60% RH at all
times and all high temperature related processes
including soldering, curing or rework need to be
completed within 168 hours.
C. Control for unnished reel
- Unused LEDs must be stored in a sealed MBB with
desiccant or desiccator at < 5% RH.
D. Control of assembled boards
- If the PCB soldered with the LEDs is to be subjected
to other high temperature processes, the PCB
must be stored in a sealed MBB with desiccant or
desiccator at < 5% RH to ensure that all LEDs have
not exceeded their oor life of 168 hours.
E. Baking is required if:
- The HIC indicator is not BROWN at 10% and is AZURE
at 5%.
- The LEDs are exposed to condition of >30 °C/60%
RH at any time.
- The LED oor life exceeded 168 hrs. The
recommended baking condition is 60 ± 5 ºC for 20
hrs.
