Description / Abstract:
If you are in the electronics industry, at one time you have,
will, or should wrestle with the issue of the cleanliness of the
unpopulated printed circuit boards (bare boards). Residues on
circuit boards are directly related to the reliability of the
produced hardware and can result in serious failures if not known
or monitored.1
This document is the product of the IPC Bare Board Cleanliness
Assessment Task Group and was drafted to provide individuals who
deal with these issues some guidance into how the issues should be
approached and specified in purchase documents.
