MANUFACTURING INFORMATION

Moisture Sensitivity
Optical characteristics of the device can be adversely affected during the soldering process by the release and
vaporization of moisture that has been previously absorbed into the package. To ensure the package contains
the smallest amount of absorbed moisture possible, each device is dry-baked prior to being packed for shipping.
Devices are packed in a sealed aluminized envelope called a moisture barrier bag with silica gel to protect them
from ambient moisture during shipping, handling, and storage before use.
The FN package has been assigned a moisture sensitivity level of MSL 3 and the devices should be stored under
the following conditions:
Temperature Range
Relative Humidity
Total Time
Opened Time
5°C to 50°C
60% maximum
12 months from the date code on the aluminized envelope — if unopened
168 hours or fewer
Rebaking will be required if the devices have been stored unopened for more than 12 months or if the aluminized
envelope has been open for more than 168 hours. If rebaking is required, it should be done at 50°C for 12 hours.
