Hi, I've just splashed out �60 on IPC-A-600F trying to find out the formula for measuring the bow and twist of raw PCB's. Much to my dismay there are 10 lines on the subject in the whole standard. Worse still is that it tells me nothing I don't alre

Hi In addition to what DaveF gave you which you should look at first Search the archives for warp bow twist warpage etc. A Lot of treads exist. Many of the larger OEM's and even the Mil have historically created their own documents for acceptable
