Too many rewrites of IPC-6012, I'm starting to fray. Thanks for noticing.

Hi Wendi and All,

Method 2.6.27 should be released sometime next week on the IPC-TM-650 
website.  I'm also putting together a web page of providers of thermal 
ovens that can meet the profiles in that method.

It is not officially released. Ask John Perry for ERD.

Thanks Dewey.

Do you know if the Test Method is release?

Wendi,



The procurement documentation shall specify the thermal stress test method 
to be used to meet the requirement of 3.6.1.   Selection shall be from 
those depicted in 3.6.1.1, 3.6.1.2 and 3.6.1.3. If not specified (see 
5.1), the default shall be per Table 1-2.



During the selection process, the user should take into consideration the 
following when determining the appropriate thermal stress test method:



*     Wave solder, selective solder, hand solder assembly processes (see 
3.6.1.1)

*     Conventional (eutectic) reflow processes (see 3.6.1.2)

*     Lead-free reflow processes (see 3.6.1.3)

See IPC-6011





3.6.1 Thermal Stress Testing Test coupons or produc­tion PBs shall be 
thermally stressed.  Per the applicable criteria listed in 1.3.3, one or 
more of the following Test Methods shall be required.



3.6.1.1 Thermal Stress Testing, Method 2.6.8 Test coupons or production 
PBs shall be thermally stressed in accordance with IPC-TM-650, Method 
2.6.8, Test condition A.



3.6.1.2 Thermal Stress Testing, Method 2.6.27 (230 °C)Test coupons or 
production PBs shall be thermally stressed in accordance with IPC-TM-650, 
Method 2.6.27, 230° C Reflow Profile.



3.6.1.3 Thermal Stress Testing, Method 2.6.27 (260 °C)Test coupons or 
production PBs shall be thermally stressed in accordance with IPC-TM-650, 
Method 2.6.27, 260° C Reflow profile.



3.6.1.4 Deviations to Thermal Stress Testing Deviations to these 
requirements shall be AABUS.



Now you are at the Test Method. We have not changed the old one or its 
requirement for use. The default in the new one is 6 X 260°C, the last 
time I looked.

Dewey

Everyone,







     I have a quick question.  When reviewing my notes from the meeting

I noted that the new reflow thermal stress frequency would be 1X reflow

= 1X solder float.  I have a final draft of the 2.6.27 test method and

it shows 6x reflow cycles.  Are we equating 1X solder float to 6X

reflow?







     Is the test method released yet?
