BS EN 61187:1996 is a British Standard that was adopted from the European Standard EN 61187:1995. It is titled "Printed boards and printed board assemblies - Design and use" and provides guidelines and requirements for the design, production, and use of printed circuit boards (PCBs) and printed board assemblies (PBAs).
The standard covers various aspects related to PCBs and PBAs, including their design principles, materials, construction, testing, and performance criteria. It aims to ensure the reliability, functionality, and compatibility of printed boards and board assemblies in various electronic devices and systems.
Some of the key topics addressed in BS EN 61187:1996 include:
Design requirements for PCBs and PBAs, including layout, dimensions, and tolerances.
Guidelines for the selection and specification of materials used in PCBs and PBAs.
Manufacturing processes, including soldering, component placement, and assembly techniques.
Testing and inspection methods to assess the quality and reliability of printed boards and assemblies.
Environmental considerations, such as temperature, humidity, and mechanical stress, and their impact on PCB performance.
Marking and labeling requirements for printed boards and board assemblies.
It's worth noting that standards are regularly updated, and new versions or revisions may have been published since 1996. Therefore, it is advisable to check for the most recent edition or revision of the standard to ensure compliance with the latest industry practices and requirements.
