Finally - an end to the confusion when calculating defect opportunities for benchmarking! For customers and manufacturers, it seems like every company has a unique way of calculating defects and then reporting on quality. In a complex electronics assembly operation, is it best to calculate using the number of components? The number of leads? What about solder joints? How can companies calculate...
This standard provides a marking and labeling system that aids in assembly, rework, repair and recycling and provides for the identification of: those assemblies that are assembled with lead-containing or lead-free solder; components that have lead-containing or lead-free second level interconnect terminal finishes and materials; the maximum component temperature not to be exceeded during assembly...

Purchase of this standard includes support documentation, report forms and the test material drawings in DWG format.
IPC-6012E-AM1 is an Amendent to the IPC-6012E that clarifes the distinction between receding and dewetting solder in reflowed SPb or HASL coatings. The Amendment also provides amended criteria for minimum external conductor thickness of the finished printed board and new acceptance criteria for the minimum thickness of internal plated layers
Amendment 1 to IPC-7711/21C, the document provides procedures for removal and installation of D-Pak components
The IPC-J-STD-006C-AM1 amendment provides better detail of a solder alloy's maximum allowed deviation about the nominal level of the element's mass than was provided in past alloy standards. The IPC-J-STD-006C-AM1 amendment provided information on negative effects of adding rare earth elements to specific, heavy tin-containing, lead-free solder alloys and propensity of tin whisker formation...

IPC J-STD-001HA/IPC-A-610HA is the automotive addendum to J-STD-001H and IPC-A-610H. It provides criteria to ensure the reliability of soldered automotive electrical and electronic assemblies in the field under harsh environments and considers automated high-volume production. IPC J-STD-001HA/IPC-A-610HA addendum is not a standalone document, and it must be used in conjunction with J-STD-001H and...
IPC/WHMA-A-620E-S space addendum provides additional requirements to IPC/WHMA-A-620E standard to ensure the reliability of cable and wire harness assemblies that must survive the vibration and thermal excursions encountered getting to and operating in the military and space environments. IPC/WHMA-A-620E-S cannot be used as a standalone document. It must be used with the base standard IPC/WHMA-A...
The IPC-6012FS space addendum provides exceptions to IPC Performance Class 3 requirements of the IPC-6012F for use in space and military avionics product. Exceptions include changes to acceptance criteria and/or sample size and test frequency for production lot acceptance testing.
