1.1.1. Tubes for J-Lead Devices and QFP Devices in Carriers
Intel® -approved tubes protect J-Lead and QFP devices in carriers from electrostatic discharge (ESD) and during transportation and storage. Use clear tubes to inspect the top-side marking of the contents easily. The tube material must be antistatic (with “antistatic” printed on the tube), and stiff enough to prevent the tubes from warping, cracking, or developing burrs during normal handling.
When transporting or storing devices in tubes, follow these guidelines:
- Keep tubes horizontal
- Keep devices in “dead bug” orientation (refer to the Dead Bug Versus Live Bug Orientation figure)
- Ensure that the devices do not overlap inside the tube
The following figure shows the difference between a "dead bug" and "live bug" orientation.
The following figure shows the tube dimensions required for each J-Lead device. The tubes must match the dimensions of the device. For the tube dimension, refer to the Tube Dimension for J-Lead Device Antistatic Shipping Tube table.
The following table lists the tube dimension as shown in the Tube Dimensions for J-Lead Device Antistatic Shipping Tube figure.
