Electrostatic Discharge and Electrical Overstress (ESD/EOS) issues are everywhere. It is literally a jungle out there when it comes to battling and securing an area that is “safe” for electronics assembly and handling.

J-STD-002 “Solderability Tests for Component Leads, Terminations, Lugs, Terminals and Wires” and J-STD-003 “Solderability Tests for Printed Boards” have been around for quite a while. Although they are mentioned in any J-STD-001 certification program, do you really know what they contain?

Blow Holes in solder joints has been a continued heated discussion in this industry for a long period of time. Do you really know what the acceptable conditions are and all of the causes for this particular phenomenon?

It’s official. IPC-A-600, Acceptability of Printed Boards is now at Revision H. Complete with new subject materials, pictures and a better correlation with other documents like IPC-6012 and IPC-6013, this standard is better than ever. Take a moment to review with us why the new standard is so improved that you have to take a look at it and incorporate it into your inspection process.

From time to time discussions arise over the accept/reject criteria in IPC-A-600 and IPC-6012 for annular rings and laminate cracks.

Well can you believe that the first half of the year has already past? With hundreds of questions asked about topics ranging from solders to component mounting, we decided to take a brief moment and discuss a few of the most popular issues that come up from time to time. So if you have a minute, listen in and comment.

Well the IPC 2010 APEX Conference has come and gone and if you are wondering what you missed, when it comes to all the technical programs and standards, then look no further. Join us for a brief webinar, where we will review the release of new document revisions, such as IPC-A-610E, J-STD-001E, IPC-A-600H and IPC-6012C and other standards that are currently being worked on.
