Newly Published Standards
and Revisions
IPC-7711/21D
Rework, Modification and Repair
of Electronic Assemblies
IPC-7711/21D provides guidance on procedures for
rework, repair, and modification of printed board and
cable or wire harness assemblies. IPC-7711/21D pro-
vides the requirements, tools, and materials to be used
in the rework, repair, and modification of electronic
products and for cable or wire harness assemblies.
IPC-2221C
Generic Standard on Printed
Board Design
IPC-2221C establishes the generic requirements for
the design of organic printed boards and other forms
of component mounting or interconnecting struc-
tures, including PC card form factors. The organic
materials may be homogeneous, reinforced, or used
in combination with organic materials; the intercon-
nections may be single, double, or multilayered.
IPC-1791D
Trusted Electronic Designer, Fabricator,
and Assembler Requirements
IPC-1791D provides minimum requirements, pol-
icies and procedures for printed board design,
fabrication, assembly, and cable and wire har-
ness assembly organizations and/or companies to
become trusted sources for markets requiring high
levels of confidence in the integrity of delivered
products. These trusted sources shall ensure qual
-
ity, supply chain risk management (SCRM), security,
and chain of custody (ChoC).
IPC-1782B
Standard for Manufacturing and Supply Chain
Traceability of Electronic Products
The traceability information detailed in IPC-1782B is
intended to improve operational efficiency, and pro-
ductivity, quality, and reliability, as well as to enable
activities such as predictive maintenance in the
manufacturing environment, but not necessarily to
be distributed outside of the organization. This stan-
dard can help organizations more easily ensure end
users/consumers will receive products and services
that meet or exceed their expectations in the timeli-
est and most economically viable method.
IPC/WHMA-A-620E-S
Space and Military Applications Electronic
Hardware Addendum to IPC/WHMA-A-620E
This Addendum provides modified and additional
requirements over those published in IPC/WHMA-A-
620E to ensure the performance 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-6012F
Qualification and Performance Specification
for Rigid Printed Boards
IPC-6012F covers qualification and performance
of rigid printed boards, including single-sided, dou-
ble-sided, with or without plate through-holes, mul-
tilayer with or without blind/buried vias, and metal
core boards. It addresses final finish and surface
plating coating requirements, conductors, holes/
vias, frequency of acceptance testing, and quality
conformance, as well as electrical, mechanical, and
environmental requirements.
