Recommendation Reason for Recommendation Committee Disposition

1 Jeffrey Rowe, Lockheed Martin General T

It appears the authors of IPC-D-620 are trying to circumvent the technical document process by placing actionable requirements in a white paper.

No action required.06/09/2015

2 Larry Joy, Amptech, Inc.

General E Delete all °F temperatures. IPC says use only °C unless there is a compelling reason and you have permission.

Reject. Significant use of imperial units.06/09/2015

3 Rob Boyd, Schleuniger Inc.

General E Some “should” words are highlighted and bold whereas others are not. Ex. 4.5.17 is not bold, 4.6.2 b + c are bold. 4.6.2 d is not bold.

This should be consistent throughout the document. Chair: Accept 05/12/2015

4 Stefan Hanigk, Airbus

General E Make a IPC-D-620x and a IPC-D-620xS and not a “Space” attachment.

To the IPC-J-STD-001F there exists a J-STD-001FS "Space Addendum".Ditto IPC/WHMA-A-620B and IPC/WHMA-A620BS.And in the future there will be an IPC-6012D and IPC 6012DS.

This is the first publication and all space requirements are listed in Appendix A.Reject06/09/2015

4.5.18 Splices (Figure 4-7) [4.6.18]

T 4.5.18 Splices (Figure 4-7)  f. Solder splices utilizing 'contained solder rings and flux' for space electronics or other hardware exposed to vacuum should be kept to a minimum. They shall not be used in the vicinity of high voltage equipment or delicate optical systems designed to operate in space or vacuum chambers. Note: Flux entrapped within the sleeve and underneath wire insulation after soldering with heat guns, can outgas and give rise to corona discharge. Similarly, outgassed flux can condense onto optical surface as a contaminant, and become darkened under solar radiation. Preferred methods include the manual soldering of such splices using heat sinks to limit flux flow underneath wire insulation, followed by cleaning with lint-free cloth containing IPA , then cover with heat shrink tubing. Residual flux, after soldering is expected (from tests) have a weight loss, WL, of 34 - 63% and a volatile condensable material VCM of 3 - 12% when tested to ASTM E595 and ECSS Q-ST-70-02.

No reason provided. Contact information available

Chair: Discussion with commenter resolved issue by placing the new requirement in Appendix A, as it is a primarily a Space requirement.

T Connectors that are not self-locking, and which are used in high vibration, mechanical shock, or thermal-cycling environments, shall [A1A2A3] be capable of being safety wired, Safety Cabled, staked, or locked with thread adhesive. (1) Adhesives / doping / staking compounds shall [A1A2A3] be compliant with flammability and outgassing requirements.

(2) Safety wire / lock wire, adhesives, and staking shall not [A1A2A3] be used to secure the coupling mechanism in applications where the connector is frequently mated / demated during normal operations, but may be used to secure backshells and other components not loosened during demating. Note: Cutting the safety wire may create an unacceptable metallic FOD concern, or present a sharp edge, puncture, snagging or injury concern to operating personnel. Safety Cable can minimize these conditions, and is a preferred retention system to safety wire.

Changes shown in red text…

The referenced document for Safety Wire, Etc. is:

NASM 33540 Safety Wiring, Safety Cabling, Cotter Pinning, General Practices for

Which is listed on page 10 of this document. Safety Cable is an approved and preferable method of threaded fastener security in that document, and should be so stated in the IPC-620 series documents.

Chair: Proposed resolution in draft.

6.1 Wire Terminations

T - Wire and connector combinations for crimped contact application shall [N1,A2,A3] be designed such that the combination when properly executed provides a gas-tight crimp.- The designer shall [N1,A2,A3] ensure via microsections, etc. that a gas-tight crimp is achieved with the specified wire/connector combination.

We have seen some applications where the terminal specified is not best suited for the wire size and does not result in a gas-tight (e.g. good quality) crimp. Sometimes the wire size is within the technical specification of the terminal but a “properly executed” crimp does not provide a gas-tight connection. the designer should ensure via microsections, etc. that a gas-tight crimp is achieved

Chair: See draft for possible resolution.

e. Wire and crimp contact combinations and tooling shall [N1A2A3] be selected such that a gas-tight, cold-weld is created between the conductor and contact during the crimping process. <IC-35T>

d. Crimping Undersized Conductors. Circular Mil Area (CMA) buildup is required when the wire gauge / CMA of the conductor to be crimp terminated is below the minimum wire gauge / CMA range of the crimp contact. Methods to increase the effective CMA of the undersized conductor so that it falls within the minimum and maximum CMA range of the contact shall [A1A2A3] be determined by design engineering and documented in the drawing, or by manufacturing engineering and documented in the process.

Apendix A; Reference 4.5.20 (new)(4.6.20 <New>)

T It was not defined what is a military application/product, and what is called a space application/product.

It is not defined whether it is to use risk to the application or for the people who applied.

NEW:Parylene-C coatings shall not be used without user approval.

In space applications, it may be that extreme mechanical loads in the starting phase and thermal cyclic stresses occur during operation. In addition, an operation in vacuum.For military applications, there is a long-term mechanical stress without vacuum.There is an unclear definition of military space applications (e.g. satellites).

Chair: See draft for possible resolution.

Parylene (Poly-Paraxylene) Coatings Containing Chlorine (Cl)Parylene-C coatings shall not be used without prior User approval.Rationale: Thermal decomposition of this product (exposure to high heat applications or contact with flame) can produce irritating vapors, acrid smoke, and toxic gases (i.e.: chlorine, carbon monoxide, dioxins, furans, hydrogen chloride, and carbon dioxide).

Years of experience with this standard and its requirement for routine Anthony and Brown testing has prevented the red plague problems seen in earlier years. After the ref to my book  .......Wiley-Praxis; 1997; ISBN 0-471-96428-X you could indicate (the revised edition of this book will be published by Springer at end-2015).

T From: High Temperature, last sentence - This effect is typically experienced only in long duration operation at temperatures beyond the wire’s continuous rating, or in instances where the wiring is exposed to excessive heat during test or highly accelerated burn-in.

To: High Temperature - This effect is typically experienced in instances where the wiring is exposed to excessive heat during test or highly accelerated burn-in.

If the wire is going to be operated above its continuous rating for long durations there may be bigger problems than Red Plague that does not rapidly cause failure.

Chair: See suggested resolution of comment in draft

High Temperature Though the upper continuous operating temperature rating of most silver-coated wiring is +200 °C [+392 °F], exposure to temperatures approaching +200 °C [+392 °F] or higher, induces migration of the copper base metal through the silver coating. This may reduce the silver coating thickness and create porosity sites for cuprous/cupric oxide corrosion to occur. This effect is typically experienced in instances where the wiring is exposed to excessive heat during test or highly accelerated burn-in.

White Paper WP-013And White WP-014

Technical The 620 committee should either: (1) needs to move these documents into the 620 Handbook with significant reformatting or (2) make this document a true Appendix of the 620 specification

Per the IPC Committee Chairman’s Handbook:

“7.3 Technical Reports, Technical Papers and White Papers

There will be times when your committee feels there is a need for published data about a specific area of technology which is either not addressed or current with the times. These reports can fill a need found during the development of a standard or publication or may come from a request by someone or a group of people in the industry. Many technical reports and technical papers are a result of round robin testing programs.  These reports and papers can follow a similar format to the IPC Standardization Procedures, but they do not have to meet the procedures. To assure relevance, these reports should go through some level of peer review by a committee or group of SMEs. The final report or paper will be submitted to the TAEC for review and approval. “

The current WP-013/014 is not a white paper per the CC Handbook definition. The WP-013/014 is written as a actionable specification addressing a technical topic germane to the 620 specification. If the committee intention is to have the industry utilize WP-013/014 as a contractionable control plan addressing Red/White Plague then the technical descriptive information would be best suited in the 620 Handbook and the remaining material as an Appendix that could be selected and invoked as part of the overall 620 specification design protocols.

WP-014 WHITE PLAGUE CONTROL PLAN General

T The control requirements for White Plague appear to be identical to the control requirements for Red Plague other than specifying the allowable rate of fluorine outgassing.

Does it need to be a separate white paper? Have always heard the mitigation for white plague was to not store in in a sealed environment, allowing all the bad stuff to dissipate into the air. Recommend discussing this with the engineers at GSFC who first brought this to light. “Red” and “White” should be the same paper if the controls are the same.

Chair comment: The basic control requirements for Red Plague and White Plague are identical, given that the conductor constructions (silver-coated copper) are the same. The issue is control and mitigation of fluorine outgassing during shipping and storage.

White Paper WP-015

Technical The 620 committee should either: (1) move this document into the 620 Handbook with significant reformatting or (2) refer this white paper to the IPC PERM Council for action/implementation and have it removed from inclusion in the 620 specification or (3) include the white paper as an invokeable appendix with significant reformatting addressing the specific topic cable and wire harness assemblies in such a manner as to not conflict with the existing IPC PERM Council LFCP specification.

Several significant issues with this white paper:

(1) Per the IPC Committee Chairman’s Handbook:

“7.3 Technical Reports, Technical Papers and White Papers

There will be times when your committee feels there is a need for published data about a specific area of technology which is either not addressed or current with the times. These reports can fill a need found during the development of a standard or publication or may come from a request by someone or a group of people in the industry. Many technical reports and technical papers are a result of round robin testing programs.  These reports and papers can follow a similar format to the IPC Standardization Procedures, but they do not have to meet the procedures. To assure relevance, these reports should go through some level of peer review by a

committee or group of SMEs. The final report or paper will be submitted to the TAEC for review and approval. “

The current WP-015 is not a white paper per the CC Handbook definition and is written as a actionable specification. The white paper is written beyond the scope of the 620 specification for cable and wire harness assemblies as it addresses components, modules and assemblies in various sections. This white paper could be a 620 Handbook topic with considerable reformatting.

(2) Conflict with IPC PERM Council specificationThe WP-015 clearly intrudes into a specification space being addressed by another IPC committee/council. The WP-015 only addresses the topics of tin whiskers and tin pest which is a significant deviation of scope from the IPC PERM specification which will potentially cause confusion and misinterpretation in the industry. The working paper requirements are often in conflict with the IPC PERM specification requirements and are biased toward a specific electronics industry segment. A number of WP-015 requirements are not consensus supported by industry publications/investigation.

(3) Alternatively, the WP-015 could be included as an actionable appendix specifically for the topics of tin whiskers/tin pest. It would not be designated as a “lead-free control plan” but as an action plan for cable and harness assemblies on those two technical topics. The appendix would need to have significant broader review as a number of technical aspects are not balanced per current industry published reports/investigations. This option needs to be configured as to not create a conflict with the IPC PERM Council specification.

WP-015; "Lead-Free Control Plan"

Technical Background

T Add:The risk of tin whiskers shall be mitigated. The method of mitigation is dependent on the component (i.e. lead materials and construction). Whiskers are not only observed on lead free tin but also on zinc, cadmium, Indium, silver, aluminum, tin silver copper alloys, gold and on lead (Pb).Tin (Sn) whiskers are highly conductive ‘‘hair-like’’ protrusions of tin that can grow from the surface of pure tin plated parts (parts having <3% lead (Pb)) due in part to compressive stress from the tin plating process or from other sources of compressive stress (e.g., tightening of a fastener). Tin whiskers have been known to result in equipment operating problems due to an electrical short-circuit resulting from a tin whisker bridging the gap between conductors or between conductors and ground. A LFCP provides recommendations to minimize but not completely eliminate risks pertaining to tin whisker growth.

Compressive stress by Coefficient of Thermal Expansion mismatchThe maximum achievable compressive stress in the tin layer is the yield limit of tin (~ -15MPa). Cu base material (Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) ~ 16ppm) does show only a small interval where compressive stress can be achieved (20°C – 80°C). FeNi42 base material (CTE ~4ppm) does show a larger interval, where a compressive stress can be achieved (+10°C – 80°C).However: The texture of the plating is most relevant for whisker growth.

More informationIt provides the reader with the information, which is a whisker. The whisker when using lead-containing materials is a rather unknown phenomenon. Practice in the use of lead-free materials, such as in the industry for about 10 years, mitigation measures to avoid whiskers are necessary.

WP-015; "Lead-Free Control Plan"

Technical Background

ongoing Depending on the texture of the tin a component is not prone to grow whisker or has a high risk to show whisker after TC-testing. The texture is depending on the electrolyte and the process parameters. The texture can be optimized. Minimization by low mismatch of CTE is reducing whisker growth. CTE of Sn depending on grain orientation: e.g. [101] with 36.6ppm, [220] with 13.4ppm. Grain orientation is depending from chemistry and process parameters.

Compressive stress by external forceWhiskers are growing concentrated in an area around the location of the mechanical imprint. It is assumed, that the main whisker growth will take place in an area, where the yield limit is reached, but no plastic deformation took place.Every stress which is causing the necessary stress gradient and level (driving force) will cause whisker growth in all applications, e.g. molding, press-fit, connectors, etc., therefore no molding over bright tin shall take place.A pin shall never be pressed into a plated through hole as it is deforming the crystalline structure and causes a stress gradient which leads to whisker growth. Bending processes are not causing whisker growth if the layer system is not totally destroyed (e.g. cracks, welding of Al, etc.).

T ASSISTANCE AND RECOMMENDATIONS FOR COMPONENT SELECTIONIn the following some recommendations to assist in the choice of some special platings and component housings are presented.

Avoid the use of Pure Tin Plated ComponentsThe best strategy to prevent tin whisker induced failures is to avoid using pure tin plating altogether. Finishes such as tin lead (SnPb), nickel palladium (NiPd), nickel palladium gold (NiPdAu), nickel gold (NiAu) do not grow whiskers. Historically the predominant whisker mitigation strategy has been the addition of lead to the tin plating on the terminations (minimum of 3% Lead by weight). These parts can be used with no tin whisker mitigation. It is recognized that avoiding tin containing finishes is not always possible; it is however, the best choice.

Add this chapterIt is advisable for the user to provide information to the hand around him dealing with lead-free surfaces / materials.

However, if a tin plated component finish must be used because no other technically acceptable component finish is available, then there should be some form of tin whisker mitigation method employed by the component manufacturer, or by others, as applicable.

Lead-free Tin (Sn) technology shall be protected by at least two (2) design or process mitigation techniques to reduce or eliminate the risks created by metallic whisker formation and/or tin pest in the expected end-use application / environment.

applied to plated covers on electronic components. Lead-frames are the metal tabs that electrically connect the chip die to the printed circuit board. The majority of current lead-frames are made of copper or a copper alloy. In addition, some lead-frames are still made of an iron-nickel alloy (e.g., alloy 42). Typically, the lead-frames are purchased without a finish (or plating) and processed at the manufacturing site into a package. Tin lead-frame plating is done after the molding operation. Historically, the predominant lead-frame finish was a tin-lead alloy with typical nominal Pb content ranging from 7% to 37% Pb. However, this transitioned primarily to tinbased Pb-free alloys in the 2005/2006 timeframe. About 10% of the lead-frame finishes are NiPdAu, which is purchased in a pre-plated form by the component assembly manufacturer.

Table-a lists all the lead-free finishes that the User Group has identified as offered or proposed finishes for electronic components. For each finish, which includes under-layer plating if applicable, and associated base material, the finishes are placed in one of three categories. This table is specific to tin whiskers and does not directly address other possible issues and concerns with these finishes. Category 1 indicates that the proposed solderable finish will be accepted by the User Group without any tin whisker testing. Category 2 indicates that the finish will only be accepted if it passes the whisker test requirements given in JESD201, Environmental Acceptance Requirements for Tin Whisker Susceptibility of Tin and Tin Alloy Surface Finishes. Previous data generated according to the iNEMI Tin Whisker Acceptance Test Requirements may also be acceptable to users. A Category 3 rating indicates that User Group members consider this finish a high risk for tin whiskers and will not accept it in any case, regardless of tin whisker test data provided. The table summarizes what the majority of companies will accept for each finish. Suppliers should be aware that though this table represents the majority opinion, individual company requirements may vary.

WP-0153.2.4.1.3

T MITIGATION BY CONDUCTOR SPACING OR COMPONENT POSITIONINGIn certain exceptional cases it is acceptable to evaluate the tin whisker risk on an individual component basis. Perform a detailed analysis on the individual part considering the following issues.Consider the risks of component lead pitch and component positioning. Fine pitch components pre-sent a higher risk as the spacing between conductors is small. Whiskers infrequently grow longer then 3mm (growth rates 1mm/yr.) thus add a margin and consider a radius of 5mm around the conductor as the danger area. Analyze the circuit around the component, consider the voltages present. Tin whiskers are coated with an oxide layer, which has an average breakdown voltage of approximately 5 volts. If the circuitry around the part operates below this voltage, the risk of shorting is mitigated.Consider locally mitigating against whiskers by locally applying conformal coating by brush on the affected areas.All of the following can increase the propensity of a finish to grow whiskers; compressive stresses induced in the tin coating caused by trimming and forming the leads and scratches or nicks in the tin plating as a result of handling or test probe contact.If it can be justified that if whiskers do grow, the risk of shorting is absolutely minimal, it is possible to approve the use of individual components with non-compliant finishes.

T STRIP AND RE-PLATE TERMINATIONSIf alternatives to tin plated parts cannot be obtained, it may be possible to remove the tin finish. This is normally considered a high risk when performed on electronic components; the ability to remove the tin plating from the affected surfaces and refinish these surfaces must be made based on a risk and cost analysis.Such processes should be reviewed to determine the potential for affecting the reliability of the original product (e.g., chemical attack on component materials). This method is currently not approved and should be carefully reviewed prior to any use as it is perceived to be very high risk.

High risk, but why not.In special cases, an available alternative.

WP-0153.2.4.2.3

T Reflowed /Fusing TinReflowed tin is a stress relieving process applied to the component before it is soldered to the board.Fusing tin plating shortly after plating mitigates whisker formation. Fusing is a reflowing operation usually done by dipping the tin-plated surfaces into a hot oil bath.

Annealed TinAnnealing after plating has become a widely accepted whisker mitigation technique. Annealing at 150°C for 1 hour within 1 hr of plating is an acceptable mitigation technique as long as the part is also conformal coated after soldering to the board. Annealing has been proven to reduce the maximum whisker length and the growth rate by relieving plating stresses; causing grain growth increasing grain sizes and also forming a uniform intermetallic layer (IMC) of Cu6Sn5 over Cu3Sn which slows further intermetallic growth.

Two available alternatives.

T & E Conformal CoatingConformal coating or foam encapsulation over the whisker prone surface can significantly reduce the risk of electrical short circuits caused by whiskers. The effectiveness of this approach appears to be specific to the material types used and the environment. Publicly available data does not support conformal coating to be a cure for whisker growth. However, it does add an insulation barrier that may prevent shorting should long whisker growth occur.

Delete:External surfaces, platings, metallization, etc., with a lead-free Tin (Sn) finish shall be fully coated with conformal coating with a total cured finish thickness of not less than 100 μm [0.004 in] for silicone (SR) and urethane (UR), and not less than 50 μm [0.002 in] for paraxylene coatings. Total cured finish thicknesses specified shall take precedence over requirements imposed by J-STD-001(SPACE) [Table 10-1], or other user-approved conformal coating / polymeric standard.

WP-016 Technical The 620 committee should either: (1) needs to move this document into the 620 Handbook with significant reformatting or (2) refer this white paper to the IPC JSTD 001/610 committees action/implementation and have it removed from inclusion in the 620 specification

Per the IPC Committee Chairman’s Handbook:

“7.3 Technical Reports, Technical Papers and White Papers

There will be times when your committee feels there is a need for published data about a specific area of technology which is either not addressed or current with the times. These reports can fill a need found during the development of a standard or publication or may come from a request by someone or a group of people in the industry. Many technical reports and technical papers are a result of round robin testing programs.  These reports and papers can follow a similar format to the IPC Standardization Procedures, but they do not have to meet the procedures. To assure relevance, these reports should go through some level of peer review by a committee or group of SMEs. The final report or paper will be submitted to the TAEC for review and approval. “

The current WP-016 is not a white paper per the CC Handbook definition. The WP-016 is written as an actionable specification addressing a technical topic that is not exclusive to the 620 specification. The working paper could be tailored to reflect FOD topics specific to the 620 specification and included in the 620 specification as an actionable appendix. Alternatively, since the working paper does cover FOD at a high level, the working paper could be incorporated into the IPC JSTD 001/610 specifications either in the body of those documents or as an actionable appendix.

WP-013 & WP-015

T Move WP-013 and WP-015 to the IPC AJ 820. The demands on the LFCP and RPCP are described in detail in the Space Addendum´s of the IPC-J-STD-001FS and IPC / WHMA-A-620BS. The documents WP-013 and WP-015 are therefore content in the IPC-AJ820 better, for example after the topic Wisker. The documents WP-013 and WP-015 only give more general guidance in addition to the demands of the standards 001 and 620.

Chair: WP-013 and WP-015 were specifically written to allow the corresponding requirements in J-STD-001xS and IPC/WHMA-A-620xS to be reduced to a single sentence similar to the paragraphs in IPC-D-620.

Additionally, both WP-013 and WP-015 are structured as templates for control plan documents, and not just technical information.

Linear dimensions and tolerances use

centimeters (cm) [inches (in)] as the main form of dimensional expression; millimeters (mm) [inches (in)] or micrometers (µm) [microinches (µin)] are used when the required precision makes the use of centimeters (cm) too cumbersome.

b. Temperature values are expressed in degrees Celsius (°C) [Fahrenheit (°F)].

c. Mass is expressed in grams (g) [ounces (oz)].d. Wire, wire harness, and cable diameters are

expressed in the non-dimensional unit (d), where a numerical dimension, such as 2d, is solely dependent on a physical attribute of the hardware (e.g.: wire gauge, harness diameter, etc.).
