The design controls how close the conductors are to the edge and what 
material is used. The results of those two inputs require the fabricator 
to modify their process to compensate for the design. Often,  fabrication 
modifications can not provide the needed results.

I would call it as a design, material and/or fabrication combo.

With the new high temp materials we are finding haloing popping up where 
we never were before. It is still a design issue.

Jim is headed in the right direction.

All of the issues I have with haloing are with polyimide material. If this 

is universal, we might modify requirements by material type.

John - this still does not resolve the issue we parked.
The design can have spacing such that no crazing, etc. is allowed. We 
discussed (and parked) verbiage relating the requirement to designs that 
comply with 2221.

Wendy's example may indeed be unmaunfacurable to the spec (and I agree). 
In practice these issues are given a blind eye until there is an issue of 
some type then parts that were acceptable yesterday are noncompliant 
today. This is a bad situation for all.


I believe we should define a hard crazing allowance for product not 
designed to 2221 (i.e. 10 mils)- it would be neater and cleaner as well as 

getting the real issue back where it belongs - design.

Jack and All,

We used to say the following in 3.3.1, Edges, in IPC-6012B:

3.3.1 Edges - Nicks, crazing or haloing along the edge of the board, edge 
of cutouts and edges of nonplated-through holes are acceptable provided 
the penetration does not exceed 50% of the distance from the edge to the 
nearest conductor or 2.5 mm [0.0984 in], whichever is less.

Now IPC-6012C will say the following:

3.3.1 Edges - Nicks or crazing along the edge of the printed board, edge 
of cutouts and edges of non-plated holes are acceptable provided the 
penetration does not exceed 50% of the distance from the edge to the 
nearest conductor or 2.5 mm [0.0984 in], whichever is less. The distance 
between the haloing penetration and the nearest conductive feature shall 
not be less than the minimum lateral conductor spacing, or 100 µm [3,937 
µin] if not specified.

The guideline for edge to hole is in IPC-2222, not IPC-2221
in IPC-2222 10.1.1 it says board edge or unplated hole to conductor
shall not be less than Table 6-1 of IPC-2221 plus .4mm
(and Table 6-1 is your minimum clearance based on voltage)

The MINIMUM from Table 6-1 (.05mm) plus .4mm works out to 17mils!

The discussion you remember was regarding IPC-2222 requirement
for haloing, and I'm not sure it was ever resolved, but I remember
we DID change some wording for the next revision.
You could get the new changes from John Perry for your own interest,
but of course it won't mean much until it is officially published.

And the haloing rule it won't help if your designers are disregarding the
clearance guideline, but I'm sure you know THAT (grin)
good luck!
Jack
