Hi John, Bill, Mark and Alan,
Thank you for your input, I look forward to the outcome of your Phoenix
discussions.

Another anomaly has arisen which I would like input on. It concerns
IPC-2223B Clause 10.1.2 which states the finished sealed edge condition
of finished product as not less than 0.4mm [0.0157"]. IPC-6013 Clause
3.3.1.2 does not confirm this value but leaves it open as an AABUS and
Section 4.1 of IPC-A-600G does not elaborate further or confirm the
IPC-2223A value. Should the 0.4mm value be used as a "standard"
acceptability criteria for everyday purposes?

Best Regards,
Phil.

Hello Phillip and All,

You have tapped into a discussion that is going on within the IPC D-11
Flex Design Subcommittee.  We recognize that there is confusion between
what is called out in Table 4-2 of the design standard and in Table 1-1
of the performance specification.

Alan and Bill, would either of you be able to comment on this issue?  I
believe it is something we will be addressing next week at the IPC D-11
meeting in Phoenix, AZ.

Thanks,

John Perry

Dear Technetters and Designers,

A question to resolve apparent conflict between the above IPCs.

As an example, take a 14 layer (4R+6F+4R) flex-rigid design 1.8mm thick
with polyimide/glass laminates and pre-preg used in rigid portions.

From IPC-2223A Table 4-2 Subnote (1) I would assume as <10% Low Tg
Laminate, the example would qualify as a Type 4(1), therefore requiring
Minimum Average Copper Thickness of 25um [984uim]. There is no Class
1,2,3 distinction.

But, IPC-6013B Table 1-1 Hole Plating for Type 4 > 6 layers Min.Ave
Copper for Class 3 calls for 35um [0.00138in]. This conflicts with
IPC-2223A Table 4-2 for a Type 4(1) Flex-rigid PCB and IPC-6013B Table
1-1 does not make distinction for amount of Low Tg material in build.

Could you help in understanding if I am missing something? Which should
be taken as "bottom line" - the design standard IPC-2223A or the
Qualification and Performance spec IPC-6013B for a high-rel application?

Thanks for your advice in advance.

Phil.
