Controlled Environment IC Storage Chamber Recommendations
« on: December 14, 2023, 06:32:50 pm »
Hi,

I'm involved in a small company that sells hardware, and we're making a long-term investment by purchasing a large number of ICs upfront. We're wondering: what are the best practices in industrial settings for storing these devices for years?

My most outstanding concerns are temperature and humidity. Our scale is small -- we're looking for something that can fit on a benchtop or in a corner of a room. Do you have recommendations for storing ICs and semiconductor devices that fit this criteria?

Sorry if this was previously discussed; I had no luck in my own search. Thank you so much!!

humidity membranes exist and could be put into a cabinet to control humidity but IDK how low they can go.

https://www.micro-dehumidifier.com/membrane-selection/


it looks like <10%

is that good enough or better then beads, IDK. otherwise you need a shit load of gaskets and stuff. I think the memebranes might be able to take a bit of leaking so long its fairly dry near the cabinet. With silica your gonna flood.

probobly any solution is shit in a humid enviroment down south or whatever
