Well, take a stab at it, but only if you have a good point.....

John Burke (408) 515 4992 -----Original Message----- From: TechNet [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Whittaker, Dewey (EHCOE) Sent: Thursday, December 04, 2008 9:05 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [TN] Materials To all, We are working these issues. There are upgrades needed on the slash sheets. Some of the test methods are archaic and need replaced or at least up-graded. The minimum limits in some cases need to be raised and the playing field narrowed. A new thermal stress test is being developed to simulate lead-free processing conditions as well as a new delam coupon, which will hopefully better predict usability/reliability of a chosen slash sheet laminate material. The STII and other material requirements need to be first incorporated in IPC-2221 and IPC-6012 to allow a designer to choose based on needed material performance versus design knowing the processing parameters involved as well as the end use environment. Please join us in this effort by coming to the meetings and lending your support and technical input. I'll handle the humor.
