Qualification and Performance Specification for Rigid Printed Boards

IPC-6012 defines how rigid printed boards are qualified and accepted, from single-sided boards to multilayers with blind and buried vias and metal-core designs. It's the specification quality and procurement teams write into their purchase orders.

Students learn the acceptance criteria and process requirements behind material selection, surface finishes, hole plating thickness, cap plating of filled holes, laminate cracks, voids, measling and weave exposure, and acceptance testing and frequency.
