Newly Published Standards and Revisions
IPC-A-610J
Acceptability for Electronic Assemblies
IPC-A-610J is the most widely used electronics
assembly acceptance standard in the electronics
industry. Participants from 31 countries provided
their input and expertise to create this document.
IPC-A-610J is a must-have standard for inspectors,
operators, and others interested in the acceptance
criteria for electronic assemblies.
IPC-J-STD-001J
Requirements for Soldered Electrical
and Electronic Assemblies
IPC-J-STD-001J is recognized globally for its
criteria on soldering processes and materials.
Updated with participants from 27 countries pro-
viding input and expertise. IPC-J-STD-001J is a
must-have for those in the electronics industry
with an interest in the process and acceptance
criteria for electrical and electronic assemblies.
IPC-J-STD-004D
Requirements for Soldering Fluxes
IPC-J-STD-004D prescribes general require-
ments for the classification and characterization
of fluxes for high-quality solder interconnections.
It may be used for quality control and procure-
ment purposes.
IPC-J-STD-005B
Requirements for Solder Paste
IPC-J-STD-005B lists the requirements for qual-
ification and characterization of solder paste. It
references test methods, criteria, and metal con-
tent, viscosity, slump, solder ball, tack, and wet-
ting of solder pastes. Additional support is pro-
vided in IPC-HDBK-005, Guide to Solder Paste
Assessment.
IPC-4562B
Specification for Metal Base Copper-clad
Laminates for Printed Boards
IPC-4562A covers metal-unsupported foils and
foils supported by carrier films suitable for
subsequent use in printed boards. IPC-4562B
addresses the requirements of metal foils used in
printed wiring applications.
IPC-4922
Requirements for Sintering Materials for
Electrical and Thermal Interconnects
IPC-4922 prescribes general minimum require-
ments for the classification and testing of sinter-
ing materials for reliable electrical and thermal
interconnects. The standard is a sintering materi-
als classification, quality assurance, and procure-
ment document for sintering materials.
