IPC/WHMA-A-620 is the only industry-consensus standard for Requirements and Acceptance of Cable and Wire Harness Assemblies. IPC/WHMA-A-620F describes materials, methods, tests and acceptance criteria for producing crimped, mechanically secured and soldered interconnections and the related assembly activities associated with cable and harness assemblies.
Establishes the requirements for the evaluation of liquid and dry film solder mask material and for the determination of the acceptability of use on a standard printed board system. IPC-SM-840 provides two classes of requirements, T and H, to reflect functional performance requirements and testing severity based on industry/end use requirements. Coverage is given to adhesion, material qualification...
Strain gage testing allows for objective analysis of the strain and strain rate levels to which a surface mount package may be subjected to during assembly, test and operation. Excessive strain can result in various failure modes for different solder alloys, package types, surface finishes or laminate materials. This document describes specific guidelines for strain gage testing during the printed...
This document is the product of the IPC Electrochemical Migration (ECM) Task Group. It was drafted to provide guidance regarding implementation of the User Guide for the IPC-TM-650, Method 2.6.25, Conductive Anodic Filament (CAF) Resistance and Other Internal Electrochemical Migration Testing to evaluate the effects of mechanical stress, laminate material fracturing, ionic contamination, moisture...
The IPC-CC-830C standard establishes qualification and conformance requirements for electrical insulating compounds (conformal coatings). It has been designed and constructed with the intent of obtaining maximum confidence in the materials with minimum test redundancy. The IPC-CC-830C standard covers: • The qualification and qualification retention of the conformal coating material (Table 3-1...
This document includes lead free, no-clean, and environmental friendly chemistries. This is a collection of information on electronic board and assembly cleaning in a single location. This major revision explains the relationship between materials, processes, and contaminants in fabrication and assembly operations. It also addresses cleanliness assessment and process control in relation to...
The IPC-9701B standard establishes a thermal cycling test method to characterize the fatigue lifetimes of surface mount solder attachments of electronic assemblies. The surface mount devices may be solder-attached to rigid, flexible or rigid-flex printed boards. The characterization results can be used to predict the field lifetime of solder attachments for the use environments and conditions of...
The IPC-7525C standard provides guidance for the design and fabrication of stencils for solder paste and surface-mount adhesive with much of the content based on the experience of stencil designers, fabricators, and users.
IPC-7526A handbook addresses understencil cleanliness during stencil printing, removal of solder paste from stencils following the cleaning process and misprint PCB board cleaning considerations.
While there are a variety of industry test vehicles for the examination of material compatibility, the IPC-B-52 test board was created to meet the needs for testing both ion chromatograph and surface insulation resistance (SIR) which would be more representative of the manufacturing materials and processes. IPC-9203A standard addresses the IPC-B-52 test vehicle, which can be used to evaluate a...
This standard provides and defines key characteristics and test methods for procuring printed electronics substrates. Includes six materials specification sheets.
The IPC-4591A standard establishes the classification system and the qualification and quality conformance requirements for functional conductive materials used in printed electronics applications. It provides companies that procure functional materials for printed electronics with the necessary technical structure to design and manufacture products meeting conformance to industry-determined...
The IPC-9202A, Material and Process Characterization/Qualification Test Protocol that records changes in Surface Insulation Resistance (SIR) on a representative sample of a printed circuit assembly (PCA). 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 electro-chemical reactions...
The IPC-9709A standard guideline document establishes an Acoustic Emission (AE) method to enhance evaluation of the performance and reliability of surface mount attachments of electronic assemblies during mechanical loading.
Provides requirements for dielectric adhesives to hold components in place from the mounting to the soldering process and identifies test methods to ensure their long term properties. 9 pages. Released December 2014.
This guideline describes flexibility and stretchability testing to evaluate printable electronics for stretchable and wearable applications. 26 pages. Released March 2017
The IPC-6903A standard provides 62 additional terms and definitions for the design and manufacture of printed electronics. The IPC-6903A standard creates a common language and understanding for the worldwide printed electronics community.
