24、trotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields.

25、 To this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC Na

26、tional Committee interested in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non- governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for Standardization

27、 (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations. 2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representati

28、on from all interested IEC National Committees. 3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC Publications is accurate, IEC cannot

29、 be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any misinterpretation by any end user. 4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications.

30、 Any divergence between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter. 5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity assessment services and, in some areas, acces

31、s to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any services carried out by independent certification bodies. 6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication. 7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including indiv

32、idual experts and members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon,

33、this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications. 8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is indispensable for the correct application of this publication. 9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of

34、this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. The main task of IEC technical committees is to prepare International Standards. In exceptional circumstances, a technical committee may propose the publication

35、of a technical specification when the required support cannot be obtained for the publication of an International Standard, despite repeated efforts, or the subject is still under technical development or where, for any other reason, there is the future but no immediate possibility of an agreement o

36、n an International Standard. Technical specifications are subject to review within three years of publication to decide whether they can be transformed into International Standards. IEC/TS 62647-2, which is a technical specification, has been prepared by IEC technical committee 107: Process manageme

37、nt for avionics. TS 62647-2 IEC:2012(E) 5 The text of this technical specification is based on the following documents: IEC/PAS 62647-2 and GEIA-STD-0005-2 Revision A. This technical specification cancels and replaces IEC/PAS 62647-2. A list of all the parts in the IEC 62647 series, published under

38、the general title Process management for avionics Aerospace and defence electronic systems containing lead-free solder, can be found on the IEC website. The text of this technical specification is based on the following documents: Enquiry draft Report on voting 107/160/DTS 107/193/RVC Full informati

39、on on the voting for the approval of this technical specification can be found in the report on voting indicated in the above table. This publication has been drafted in accordance with the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The committee has decided that the contents of this publication will remain unchan

40、ged until the stability date indicated on the IEC web site under “http:/webstore.iec.ch“ in the data related to the specific publication. At this date, the publication will be transformed into an International standard, reconfirmed, withdrawn, replaced by a revised edition, or amended. A bilingual v

The European Union (EU) has enacted two directives: 2002/95/EC Restriction of Hazardous Substance

43、s (RoHS) and 2002/96/EC Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE) that restrict or eliminate the use of various substances in a variety of products produced after July 2006. One of the key materials restricted is lead (Pb), which is widely used in electronic solder and electronic piece part t

44、erminations, and printed wiring boards. While these regulations may appear to only affect products for sale in the EU, due to the reduced market share of the aerospace, defence, and high performance industry in electronics, many of the lower tier suppliers are changing their products because their p

45、rimary market is world-wide consumer electronics. Additionally, several Asian countries and United States (U.S.) states have enacted similar “green” laws. Many Asian electronics manufacturers have recently announced completely “green” product lines. The restriction of Pb use has generated a transiti

46、on by many piece part and board suppliers from tin-lead (SnPb) surface finishes to pure tin or other Pb-free finishes. Lead-free tin finishes can be susceptible to the spontaneous growth of crystal structures known as “tin whiskers” which can cause electrical failures, ranging from parametric deviat

47、ions to catastrophic short circuits, and may interfere with sensitive optical surfaces or the movement of micro-electro mechanical systems (MEMS) for example. Though studied and reported for decades, the mechanism behind their growth is not well understood, and tin whiskers remain a potential reliab

48、ility hazard. Furthermore, the growing number of piece parts with pure tin finishes means there are more opportunities for whiskers to grow and to produce failures. It is important to state that that the nature and meaning of risk posed by tin whiskers may vary considerably across the range of users

49、 of this Specification. As in any assessment of risk, the probability of occurrence and failure and consequence of occurrence and failure should be considered in each application. Potential whisker failure modes for a particular hardware/system application must be carefully considered when making the choice/determination of which control level(s) to apply. For example, whisker-prone leaded parts on circuit card used in a system that is under fr
