IPC-RB-276 has a chart defining minimum standard plating
thickness. for Gold the requirements are:
Class 1 0.00075mm(0.00003in)
general use PCBs
Class 2 0.00075mm(0.00003in)
high reliability PCBs
Class 3 0.0013mm (0.00005in)
mission critical PCBs
I hope this helps.

Is there an IPC spec for minimum thickness of gold plating
on edge tabs
for high reliability boards? I was thinking it was 30
microinches but
I'm looking for a spec.
Thanks
