PG4937_R2_00001 I bought this part from digikey, the customer service tell me , the warranty is ooffered by MFG, so how long it uauslly be?
Generally manufacturers have no written warranty for components meant to be sold to OEMs.
Instead they are implied to work as described when purchased and any later failures you negotiate with the manufacturer over what is at fault, component, circuit design, environmental damage, etc.
Occasionally they will offer a warranty to other customers but the component price is much higher than the OEM price. (we do it where I work, $20 for OEM no written warranty, $135 for consumer five year warranty)
Class 64220 – STANDARD DIODE 600V 1A DO41 is MSL 1 = Unlimited M oisture Sensitivity Level – so you could argue that the function within the specified parameters should be stable.
Another indication is the Letter Concerning Warranty to Aron Muetzel on 2-15-2018 for all passive products of TDK as distributorship agreement with DigiKey for one year from date of shipment to customers.

Nice that TDK offers a warranty to DigiKey and its customers..
Does DigiKey have a similar arrangement with any other manufacturers, especially PANJIT International since that is the subject of the OP?
Panjit often states that they do not assume any implied warranties - so I guess such a statement is not applied to our official franchise agreement. AI states that PANJIT International offers a 3-year warranty on all purchases of their components. This warranty applies to all their products purchased from authorized distributors.
