IEC PAS 62435:2005 pdf download Electronic components – Long-duration storage of electronic components – Guidance for implementation
Scope
This Publicly Available Specification (PAS) is, first of all, a practical guide to methods of longduration storage (more than five years) which summarizes the existing practices in the industry.
Unless otherwise specified, the approach, as well as the methods presented, apply to all familiesof electronic components, such as
passive components, including quartz crystals, connectors and relays. Howevercomponents with “manufacturer’s” specifications showing an expiry date or specific storageconditions are excluded from this document (for example, primary cells, storage cells, etc.);
encapsulated or non-encapsulated active components of a silicon iSi or gallium arsenide[GaAs] technology;
micro-electronic assemblies

3 Storage decision criteria
Any creation of an electronic component inventory should be carried out
on the one hand, after having compared with the following additional solutions:
modification to the printed board by adding a “backpack” macro-component;
on the other hand, by taking into account the following aspects
3.1Advantages
3.1.1Technical simplicity – Rapidity
When the various steps of the storage process are finalized and validated, the creation of astock is a simpler, faster and technically less hazardous solution than developing or modifyingelectronic boards.
Storage can also be a temporary solution enabling equipment maintenance during modificationor development of electronic boards.
3.1.2Solution durability
Any equipment changes based on the use of new electronic components will be faced.eventually, with the obsolescence of these new components. Storage can resolve obsolescenceproblems until the end of the operating life of the equipment.
3.1.3Preventive storage
Preventive storage (i.e., before the component becomes obsolete) presents several additionaadvantages compared with remedial storage (i.e., when the component has already becomeobsolete), for example, when
the component price has not become prohibitive as in the case of specific obsoletecomponents which have become very rare;
the quality level s ensured if the component can be purchased direct from the manufactureror approved distributor, When a component has been obsolete for a long time, it can only befound at specialists in purchasing, storage and resale of obsolete components (brokers”). lnthis case,no component reliability guarantee will apply.
