This handbook is a companion reference to J-STD-001, Requirements for Soldered Electrical and Electronic Assemblies. It describes materials, methods, and verification criteria that, when applied as recommended or required, will produce quality soldered electrical and electronic assemblies. The intent of the Handbook is to explain the ‘‘how-to,’’ the ‘‘why,’’ and fundamentals for these processes...

CITs who are not members of the Task Group are encouraged to contact his or her MIT for a copy of the redline document.

This document provides tests that record changes in surface insulation resistance (SIR) on a representative sample of a printed circuit assembly. It quantifies any deleterious effects that might arise from solder flux or other process residues left on external surfaces after soldering, which can cause unwanted electrochemical reactions that grossly affect reliability. It uses test vehicles that...

Surface mount pad cratering typically initiates prior to detection by existing electrical monitoring test methods. There are limited instrumentation techniques that are currently available that can identify non-electrical damage and its location to a high degree of accuracy. This guideline document establishes an acoustic emission (AE) method to evaluate the performance and reliability of surface...

While there are a variety of industry test vehicles for the examination of materials compatibility, most available test boards leave something to be desired as there is often a dramatic difference in materials between such test boards and produced assemblies. A test vehicle was needed which could be used for both ion chromatography and SIR testing that would be more representative of mainstream...

IPC-7801 provides process control for solder reflow ovens by baseline and periodic verifications of oven profiles using a standard methodology to demonstrate acceptable oven performance repeatability. Equipment calibration and maintenance guidelines are provided. This standard is intended to verify the operating parameters of the reflow oven. This standard is not intended for the assembly product...

Cleaning of stencils and misprinted PCBs has taken an increasingly important role in surface mount technology. Fine and ultra-fine pitch lands, together with other advanced packages, place new demands on stencil cleaning. Paste volume is a critical issue for fine, ultra-fine, chip-scale, BGA and flip-chip components. Insufficient solder due to clogging of stencil apertures is a primary cause of...

This standard describes the design and assembly challenges for implementing Bottom Termination surface mount Components (BTCs) whose external connections consist of metallized terminals that are an integral part of the component body. The BTCs in this document include all types and forms of bottom-only termination components intended for surface mounting. This includes such industry descriptive...

The IPC-7091 intends to provide useful and practical information to those who are designing, developing or using 3D-packaged semiconductor components or those who are considering 3D package implementation.
