Doug,
Any increase in shared knowledge is welcome. But, no, I would not be
willing to take part in a committee on potting and encapsulation. More
below on why.
I am very interested in component cleanliness, as you can well imagine.
However, I am the only representative from my company that is sent to
attend standards meetings. There are already more simultaneous meetings
than I can attend at one time. On occasion I need to be in four rooms
at once! (Dewey, resist the temptation.) Is there not already a JEDEC
committee that we should tie in/work with? If so, can't we shovel this
new topic into the current board board/IC committee time frame?

Subject: [TN] Potting Encapsulation and Component Cleanliness
Good morning all,
We had a successful round of meetings at the IPC Midwest Expo in
Schaumburg, IL, this last week. I hope that you had time and budget to
attend.
One of the action items that I have as chairman of the Cleaning and
Coating General Committee is to determine if there is sufficient
interest
and volunteers to form two new task groups.
The first would be a Task Group on Potting and Encapsulation. The IPC
has
groups devoted to conformal coating, but none really on potting and
encapsulation. So, would you find a group on potting and encapsulation
to
be of benefit and would you be willing to be part of it.
The second would be a Task Group on Component Cleanliness. We have
groups
that focus on bare board cleanliness and assembly cleanliness, but not
components themselves. Again, would you find a group to be of benefit
and
would you be willing to be part of it.
I realize, as do most of the IPC chairmen, that travel budgets are very
tight or non-existant. If you volunteer, much of the work can be done
on-line and by teleconferences. It might be nothing more than some good
Technet exchanges.
Let me know your thoughts on these matters.
