Devices are packed in moisture barrier bags (MBB) to
prevent the products from absorbing moisture during
transportation and storage. Each bag contains a des-
iccant.

Floor Life
Floor life (time between soldering and removing from
MBB) must not exceed the time indicated in
J-STD-020. According JEDEC, J-STD-020, this com-
ponent is released to Moisture Sensitivity Level 2, for
use of Lead Tin (SnPb) Reflow Solder Profile
(Figure 14) or Level 3, for use of Lead (Pb)-free (Sn)
Reflow Solder Profile (Figure 13).
Floor Life: 12 month (Level 2) or 168 hours (Level 3)
