Moisture Sensitivity Levels (MSL)
MSL 1β6 sets floor-life and baking rules for plastic packages. Ignore it and you get popcorning and cracked parts.
The scale
MSL 1 is unlimited; MSL 6 must be baked before use.
Floor life
Higher MSL means shorter exposed time before bake.
Handling
Dry pack, humidity cards and bake logs prevent field failures.
