Description :
What are the recommended storage conditions for the T525?

Answer :
The T525 will be packaged in a moisture bag with a desiccant, the same as previous tantalumpolymer
devices. It has an MSL Level III rating, requiring that the devices be mounted within 48
hours of opening the bag. If exposed to the open air for a longer period of time, the moisture
content of the epoxy plastic may be high enough to cause small components mounted near the
capacitor, to be moved by the release of the moisture from the case. There is a procedure that will
allow the user to recover parts left in an open container for periods in excess of 168 hours.
