Bulletin Details
Description:
This Bulletin is issued as an Addendum to Bulletin # 1409121: Notification of Improved MSL Rating for
Si531x and Si532x Product Families.
The list of affected devices (identified by specific ordering part numbers or “OPNs”) has been
expanded to reflect the complete list of Si531x and Si532x OPNs for which the improved MSL2 rating
now applies.
Per the original Bulletin # 1409121, Silicon Labs is pleased to announce that Si531x and Si532x
products ship with a moisture sensitivity level (MSL) rating of MSL2. Si531x and Si532x products that
have shipped after 24-Jan-2013 have been shipping with a label marked with MSL2. Please refer to
the Product Identification section for the complete list of affected devices.
If you have questions about this Bulletin addendum, please contact your Silicon Labs sales
representative. A list of Silicon Labs sales representatives is available at www.silabs.com.
Reason:
This addendum is being issued to include specific OPNs which are MSL2 qualified. The original Bulletin
# 1409121 included a partial listing of affected OPNs.
The identified Si531x and Si532x products (see next section) qualify for MSL2 handling. The improved
MSL2 rating makes it easier to use the Si531x and Si532x product families during the PCB assembly
process. No changes were made to the product.
Product Identification:
Inspect the shipping label for the MSL rating. Treat products with respect to moisture sensitivity per
the shipping label’s stated MSL rating. Affected part numbers are as follows (the list below has been
