    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Covers tolerancing and dimensioning of electronic packaging comprehensively and in-sync with other IPC printed board standards such as IPC-6021A and IPC-2221. Includes fundamental tolerancing and dimensioning rules, orientation and form tolerances, profile, and detailed geometric symbology. Encompasses over 100 new and revised illustrations. This document which is invaluable to the PWB designer will help manufacturers and board purchasers achieve the most manufacturable board designs.
