DRM-SMT-C, Surface Mount Solder Joint Evaluation Desk Reference Manual Tables and charts are fine for engineers, but for the rest of us a clear and simple explanation requires a picture. To help your workforce understand and apply the surface mount acceptance criteria from the IPC-A-610C and the J-STD-001C, IPC has produced a 37-page, 5.5 x 8.5 inch, spiral bound Desk Reference Manual -- to make it much easier for your inspectors and operators to make good solder joint decisions. DRM-SMT-C contains computer generated 3-D color illustrations for Chip component, Gull Wing and J-Lead solder joints. Each drawing clearly shows the minimum acceptable condition for each type of component misalignment, and the minimum solder joint sizes. All three classes of product are color-coded to make it convenient to use as a reference guide. This manual also contains high quality color photographs of all of the major solder defects and conditions, with the appropriate specification / paragraph reference from the A-610C and J-STD-001C.
