Moisture is often a result of outgassing from polymeric materials and is a dangerous contaminant in hermetically sealed packages. Hi-Rel has developed a range of getter solutions to adsorb and, consequently, avoid premature device failure due to moisture contamination, H2O (Moisture) can induce corrosion and/or dendritic growth.
Hi-Rel and Johnson Matthey have been teaming together since 1999 to bring our customers the most robust solutions. Each solution is customized based on application, footprint, RGA analyis and other factors. We work together early in your design process so that whatever moisture issue your electronics face, we customize your exact solutions.
