IPC-4101 revision C
IPC Association Connecting Electronics Industries has released revision C of the IPC-4101 Specification for Base Materials for Rigid and Multilayer Printed Boards.
Covering the requirements for base materials used primarily in rigid and multilayer printed boards for electrical and electronic circuits, the C revision adds 11 specification sheets to reflect the expanded offerings for commercially available laminates and prepregs.
The specification sheets add laminate and prepreg materials with improved or additional properties for use in low-halogen, lead-free, high-thermal performance and high-speed/high-frequency performance.
In total, 66 individual specification sheets are contained in IPC-4101C which can be searched using keywords.
The keywords allow the document's user to find groups of materials with common characteristics but with enough specific properties that allow them to fine-tune their laminate and/or prepreg search.
