No solder mask; Class 2 => Class T; Class 3 => Class H.

Thanks for confirming. Joe

On my PCB fab drawings, I specify SOLDER MASK PER ANSI/IPC-SM-840, should I specify a CLASS rating? It appears at one time the CLASSES were 1, 2, or, 3. I believe, they are now T or H. Correct? Thanks, Joe

IPC-SM-840. If overall thickness is not specified in purchasing documents, a supplier will do whatever it wants. Specify your requirements. Typical values are 20-50um. Regards

Solder mask requirements: * IPC-6012 and IPC-SM-840 contain detailed specifications and information regarding solder mask requirements. * IPC-A-600 defines acceptability of printed boards [analog of A-610 for board assemblies]. Why can't you use A-6

Occasionally solder mask thickness is believed to be the cause of gasketing challenges during paste printing. We currently specific IPC-SM-840 on our fab drawings but this provides no limits or guidelines on thickness. I do not want to cause an unr
