Tech-Tuesday Webinars Continue With:

Cleanliness Testing and Process Monitoring Forum
- A Webinar

About the Webinar:
How clean is clean enough? IPC recently changed the way circuit assemblies are deemed clean or dirty. There is no longer a "one size fits all" cleanliness standard. New IPC requirements call for the submission of "objective evidence" in determining if the volume of contamination on a circuit assembly would affect reliability on your assembly. IPC also implemented a process monitoring requirement to assure your cleaning process is "in control".

Four presenters, all experts on cleaning, contamination-related failure mechanisms, cleanliness quantification, and process monitoring techniques will each present valuable technical information on these subjects. 

About the Presenters:
The webinar begins with an overview of the new IPC cleanliness testing requirements from the Chair of the IPC technical committee that designed the new standard. Doug Pauls from Rockwell Collins, Chair of the IPC Technical Committee on cleanliness, will speak about the new standard and answer frequently asked questions.

Dr. Mike Bixenman from Magnalytix will present on the subject of Surface Insulation Resistance (SIR) testing for objective evidence.

Eric Camden from Foresite (a failure analysis laboratory) will review the benefits of ion chromatography and review common contamination-related field failures.

Mike Konrad from Aqueous Technologies will review the
IPC process monitoring requirements through ionic contamination testing.

Who should attend?
This non-commercial webinar is designed for both contract manufacturers and OEM's who clean or anticipate cleaning post-reflow circuit assemblies and wish to comply with the new IPC standard.
