IPC Standards Handbook
Sierra Circuits' IPC Standards Handbook summarizes 15 key norms that align with all major phases of PCB development.
Sierra Circuits’ IPC Standards Handbook summarizes 15 key norms that align with all major phases of PCB development, including design, manufacturing, assembly, and testing. It includes IPC-222x series, IPC-601x series, and IPC-A-610 requirements.
This eBook provides an overview of the IPC standards for material selection, layout design, and manufacturing of rigid, flex, HDI, and high-speed boards. It will help you make informed decisions for applying the right standard for your design.
This IPC Standards Handbook also provides DFM, DFA, and DFT guidelines to ensure the design is production-ready.
As IPC standards mainly focus on inspection and testing processes, we have covered IPC-A-600, IPC-A-610, and IPC-TM-650 manuals. This helps you design a board that meets the industry-defined benchmarks.
Finally, we highlight the importance of accurate production data and the use of an IPC-approved file format (IPC-2581) for effective data hand-off.
What’s inside:
- Clear breakdown of IPC standards for every stage of PCB development
- Design and DFM guidelines based on IPC-2221, IPC-7351, and IPC-J-STD-001
- Material selection guidance tied to IPC-4101, IPC-4202, and more
- Testing and inspection insights using IPC-A-600 and IPC-TM-650
- Best design documentation practices for seamless production
