Hi Roland,
You assume incorrectly that IPC-TM-650, TM 2.4.3.2 is only for copper-clad
flexible dielectrics; its title is: "Flexural Fatigue and Ductility, Flexible
Metal-Clad Dielectrics," and the TM is applicable for any flexible metal
cladding. I know, because I developed the TM and have applied it to different
metals, however not to Immersion Tin, Immersion Silver or ENiG.
