IPC-A-600H Standard

IPC-A-600H Standard Description:

IPC A-600H Acceptability of Electronic Assemblies. The IPC-A-600, "Acceptability of Printed Boards " is the most widely used published specification on printed wiring boards. This specification has set the standard for rigid printed boards in terms of PCB workmanship quality. It includes extensive acceptance criteria including full color illustrations and photographs showing all types of printed board surface and internal conditions. It is important so that both user and manufacturer of printed wiring boards may "speak the same language" with respect to PCB specifications.

This is an illustrated guide to PCB acceptability! This four-color document provides photographs and illustrations of the target, acceptable and nonconforming conditions that are either internally or externally observable on bare boards. Topics such as copper wrap plating, copper cap plating of filled holes, and hole wall/barrel separation along with updated and expanded coverage for measling of printed boards, delamination and haloing, laminate voids/cracks, etchback, blind and buried via fill, and flexible circuits are covered in this document. The document sychronizes to the acceptability requirements expressed in IPC-6012C and IPC-6013B. 157 pages. Released April 2010.
