GB/T 42706.2-2023 is the English-translated version of 电子元器件 半导体器件长期贮存 第2部分:退化机理.

GB/T 42706.2-2023 addresses electronic semiconductor devices that are expected to sit in a store for more than twelve months before they are fitted, and the ways they deteriorate while nothing at all is being done to them. The degradation types are set out one at a time: the solderability of lead plating and its oxidation, the popcorn effect that appears when a package which has absorbed moisture meets reflow heat, the condition of the layers inside the package, corrosion and discoloration, electrostatic influence, damage from high-energy ionizing radiation, the risk that storage temperature itself poses to the device, and the behaviour of precious metal coatings. A further group of clauses gives the purpose of degradation testing, the criteria for selecting which tests to run, and the measurement and test methods themselves. Obsolescence is the reason any of this matters: aviation, railway and energy equipment stays in service for decades while the parts it uses go out of production, so operators buy a lifetime supply early and warehouse it. A device that will no longer wet with solder, or that cracks the first time it is heated, is discovered at assembly, years after the supplier has gone. Used together with IEC 62435-1, it serves the procurement and storage side of long-life electronics.

Introduction

This document describes an implementation method for long-term storage. Long-term storage refers to electronic components that are expected to be stored for more than 12 months

In recent years, the elimination of electronic components, especially integrated circuits, has become more and more serious. With the development of science and technology, and used in aviation, railway or energy

Compared with industrial equipment in the source field, the life cycle of components is very short. Therefore, systematic storage of components is the solution to the elimination problem.

Long-term storage requires good implementation of storage procedures, especially the storage environment. It is recommended that all transport, maintenance

This document proposes a method of delaying obsolescence to the greatest extent possible, but does not guarantee that components will be in perfect working condition after storage.

Because some systems are very old, in some cases 40 years or more, how to perform repairs and obtain spare parts becomes a

Spare parts obtained from the original supplier or used for assembly are produced at the beginning of production but require long-term storage. of this document

The purpose is to provide guidance for long-term storage of components.

GB/T 42706 "Long-term storage of electronic components and semiconductor devices" aims to ensure that after long-term storage of components, there is sufficient

reliability. Encourage users to ask suppliers to provide technical parameters of related products to demonstrate the storage process that meets user needs. These labels

The standard aims to provide relevant guidance for electronic components that require long-term storage.

GB/T 42706 "Long-term storage of electronic components and semiconductor devices" is divided into 9 parts. Part 1~Part 4 applies to

All long-term storage, and contains general requirements and guidance. Parts 5 to 9 apply to the storage of several specific product types. exist

While meeting the general requirements of Parts 1 to 4, the requirements for specific product types must also be met.

Beginning with Part 5, it deals with electronic components that require different storage conditions.

GB/T 42706 "Long-term Storage of Electronic Components and Semiconductor Devices" corresponds to the IEC 62435 series standards and is proposed to be divided into the following

1 Scope

GB/T 42706.2-2023 addresses electronic semiconductor devices that are expected to sit in a store for more than twelve months before they are fitted, and the ways they deteriorate while nothing at all is being done to them. The degradation types are set out one at a time: the solderability of lead plating and its oxidation, the popcorn effect that appears when a package which has absorbed moisture meets reflow heat, the condition of the layers inside the package, corrosion and discoloration, electrostatic influence, damage from high-energy ionizing radiation, the risk that storage temperature itself poses to the device, and the behaviour of precious metal coatings. A further group of clauses gives the purpose of degradation testing, the criteria for selecting which tests to run, and the measurement and test methods themselves. Obsolescence is the reason any of this matters: aviation, railway and energy equipment stays in service for decades while the parts it uses go out of production, so operators buy a lifetime supply early and warehouse it. A device that will no longer wet with solder, or that cracks the first time it is heated, is discovered at assembly, years after the supplier has gone. Used together with IEC 62435-1, it serves the procurement and storage side of long-life electronics.
