Question electronics

cloudff7

Why do some electronic devices that were working stop working if they remain unpowered for long periods? Is there an explanation for this and is it possible to avoid it?

  • There can be lots of reasons why devices stop working.

    There are ways to make systems fault tolerant, but it takes time and effort to build these types of systems.

    Most modern devices are designed to be used and tosses.

    I still have electronic devices that work after 25 or 30 years. I use them every day and they continue to perform well.

    I don't live near the beach, even though I use a dehumidifier in my room, the humidity varies from 59-70%, if the dehumidifier dies it remains at 70%

    What is the maximum interval for energizing electronic devices and remove humidity and preventing oxidation and corrosion?
