Table 1-1 is a summary of related documents. IPC A 610 has criteria outside the scope of IPC J-STD-001 defining mechanical and other workmanship requirements. Users of this standard should be knowledgeable of the applicable requirements of the document and how to apply them, see 1.3 Classification.
For instance, the presence of criteria for adhesive bonding of components does not imply/authorize/require the use of adhesive bonding and the depiction of a lead wrapped clockwise around a terminal does not imply/authorize/require that all leads/wires be wrapped in the clockwise direction. The criteria in this standard are not intended to define processes to accomplish assembly operations nor is it intended to authorize repair/modification or change of the product. For a more complete understanding of this document’s recommendations and requirements, one may use this document in conjunction with IPC-HDBK-001, IPC AJ 820 and J-STD-001. Historically, electronic assembly standards contained a more comprehensive tutorial addressing principles and techniques.
This document presents acceptance requirements for the manufacture of electrical and electronic assemblies. This standard does not provide criteria for cross-section evaluation. This standard is a collection of visual quality acceptability requirements for electronic assemblies. Description IPC A 610, Revision H – Acceptability of Electronic Assemblies
