        Hi Victor:
        I know this is a little late for an answer but this is what I found out.

        When the twisted board had three corners touching three same level posts the difference between that height and the fourth corner was 42 thousands or 42 mils or 0.042".
	
        by 5.2.7  0.14% was obtained   With  ***** 42 mils ******

        by 5.3.6 referee method   R1 - R2 was **** 36.5 mils *****  The second number is  too close to the first one to be true. The number should have been about 16 mils.  

        Using the referee method two opposite corners should be touching two same level posts or be at the same datum. The other two corners should also be at a same different datum. Viewed from the proper perspective the board should be like a V. The difference of the top corners from the bottom corners divided by length times  100 should give 0.14%.

        Perhaps you do not have the board any more, my conclusion is that R1 and R2 reading that you obtained are not correct.
	
        Regards,
        Ramon

Subject: [TN] PCB Raw card Bow & Twist calculation Ref: IPC-TM-650


Fellow TechNetters,

 

Anyone out there cares to put in their 2¢ worth.   I sure would appreciate the CLARIFICATION.

 

   Given the following physical dimensions of a raw card I proceeded to apply the IPC-TM-650 Bow and Twist Method 2.4.22 step 5.2.2 for maximum allowable twist percentage for an SMT, ,75%, technology card.   Then confirmed that calculated thickness by applying 5.2.7 formula to confirm the SMT tolerance, .75%, guideline.   I also conducted the 5.3 Referee method (Twist) for a second correlation.   The 2 methods do not yield similar data.   Can you please help to explain where I went wrong.

 

      Sample #1.  Length:     1.5 inches,

                  Width:      10.4 inches,

                  Diagonal:   14.75 inches,

                  Thickness:  0.062 thousands.

                  Technology: SMT

                  Target:     0.75%

 

      5.2.2       Maximum Allowable Twist       R = 2(D)(T)/100  =  2(14.74)(.75)/100 = 0.22125

      5.2.7       Percentage Twist              R = R/2(D)x100   =  .22125/29.5x100 = .75

                  Therefore, the max allowable twist Go/No-GO thickness is 0.221125

   I proceeded with the exercise.

 

      I place the sample on a granite rock.   While penning one edge of the sample I slide a Go/No-Go thickness gage on the corner onsite the pin edge which measured .042 thousands.   Now applying the formula for actual percentage twist.

                  R = R/2(D)x100 = .042/29.5x100 = 0.14237

                  The value of .14% is well below the maximum allowable .75% percent twist, acceptable product.

 

    I proceeded with the exercise:

 

      5.3 Referee Method.

                  Actual: R1 = 0.0955

                          R2 = 0.0590

      5.3.6       Percentage Twist = R1-R2/Lx100   =  0.0955 - 0.0590/10.5 = 0.0034761   =  .34%

 

   The results of 5.2.7 actual does not correlate to the results of 5.3.6.   What's missing.

 

   In advance I thank you for your timely response in this matter.

 

Victor,

For bow it is the length of the board. For twist it is the diagonal. But these are not "requirements" they are "should" best manufacturing practices. Bow and Twist shall not be sufficient to damage the components or solder connections in subsequent assembly operations.
