IPC-HDBK-001 - Revision E

Superseded by IPC-HDBK-001 - Revision F

This handbook is a companion reference to J-STD-001, Requirements for Soldered Electrical and Electronic Assemblies. It describes materials, methods, and verification criteria that, when applied as recommended or required, will produce quality soldered electrical and electronic assemblies. The intent of the Handbook is to explain the ‘‘how-to,’’ the ‘‘why,’’ and fundamentals for these processes, in addition to implementing control over processes rather than depending on end-item inspection to determine product quality.
