What is BS EN IEC 62435‑8 about?
BS EN IEC 62435‑8 is the eighth part of the multi-series European standard on electronic components.
BS EN IEC 62435‑8 series on long-term storage is applied to passive electronic devices in long-term storage that can be used as part of obsolescence mitigation strategy. Long-term storage refers to a duration that can be more than 12 months for a product scheduled for storage.
BS EN IEC 624358, together with the packaging and labelling of components, allows for the verification of the thermal and environmental criteria for evaluating the reliability of passive electronic devices.
Who is BS EN IEC 62435‑8for?
BS EN IEC 62435‑8 on electronic components is useful for:
- Manufacturer of electronic components
- Electrical Engineers
- Researchers and scientists
- Semiconductor foundries
Why should you use BS EN IEC 62435‑8?
Some electronic devices need to be stored for a longer period which supports the production runs in assembling.
BS EN IEC 62435‑8 will help you in mitigating the failures by controlling stimuli driving during the longer-term storage of passive electronic devices. The data retention will help you in identifying discrepant material either due to spoilage, mishandling, and originally undetected attributes that help in maintaining the custody evidence of components to prevent counterfeit.
BS EN IEC 62435‑8 helps in considering thermal and environmental chains that will help in the evaluation and estimation of reliability of passive electronic devices. Packing and labelling of components help in identifying moisture sensitivity parts that help in mitigating the failures and unit level traceability. The non-moisture parts are packed and stored to reduce exposure to dust, condensed moisture, chemical outgassing products along with pollution residue and help in maintaining electrostatic discharge in passive electronic components.
BS EN IEC 62435‑8 helps in storing the passive electronic devices for a longer period by mitigating the failures of the components.
