It deals with the influence of these coatings on the insulation prop
18、erties. It does not cover repaired printed board assemblies. Between any two uncoated conductive parts and over the coating between conductive parts, the clearance and creepage distance requirements of IEC664-1 apply. The coatings considered in this part are permanent protective coatings, such as th
19、e following: permanent solder resists (wet or dry film) using screen printing or photo definable processes; coverlayers, i.e. insulating protective layers placed on the surface of a printed board; conformal coating, i.e. insulating coating applied to printed board assemblies. Coating considered in t
20、his part may also include such encapsulation as moulding or potting. Technical Committees have to consider the influence of overheating of conductors and components, especially under fault conditions, and to decide if any additional requirements are necessary. Not all coating systems in use are capa
21、ble of improving insulation properties. The tests specified in this part can be used to determine the suitability of the coating systems. Safe performance of printed board assemblies is dependent upon a precise and controlled manufacturing process for the application of the coating. Requirements for
22、 quality control, e.g. by sampling tests, should be considered by Technical Committees. 1 Scope This part of IEC 664 applies to rigid printed board assemblies with an insulating coating applied to one or both sides of the printed board. Such coatings are used to provide insulation and to protect the
23、 microenvironment of the printed board assembly surface against pollution, for the purpose of insulation coordination. It describes the requirements and test procedures for printed board assemblies provided with coatings. This part covers two types of coatings: type A coating only provides protectio
24、n against pollution. The clearance and creepage distance requirements of IEC664-1 apply to the printed board assembly under the coating; type B coating provides protection against pollution and insulation. There are no requirements for clearances and creepage distances under the coating. Only the re
25、quirements of IEC664-1 for solid insulation apply. NOTE 1For type B coating, the conductors are embedded in solid insulation consisting of the base material and the coating. NOTE 2Clearances and creepage distance requirements apply to all uncoated parts of the board and between conductive parts over
26、 the coating. The principles in this part are applicable to functional and basic insulation. NOTE 3For supplementary and reinforced insulation, additional requirements, which are under consideration, may apply. 2 Normative references The following standards contain provisions which, through referenc

33、t1:Principles, requirements and tests. 3 Definitions In addition to the definitions in IEC 664-1, the following definitions apply for the purpose of this part of IEC664: 3.1 base material insulating material upon which the pattern may be formed IEC194-02-01 3.2 printed board base material cut to siz
34、e containing all holes andbearing at least one conductive pattern IEC194-01-03 it includes single and double-sided, multilayer, flexible and flexible multilayer boards 3.3 printed board assembly printed board with electrical and mechanical components and or other printed boards attached to it, with
35、all manufacturing processes, soldering, coating, etc. completedIEC194-01-20 3.4 conductor single conductive path in a conductive pattern IEC194-01-28 3.5 coating solid insulating material laid on one or both sides of the surface of the printed board. Coating can be a varnish, a dry film applied to t
36、he printed board or can be achieved by thermal deposition NOTECoating and base material of the printed board form an insulating system that may have properties similar to solid insulation. 3.6 solid insulation solid insulating material interposed between two conductive parts NOTEIn the case of a pri
37、nted board with a coating, solid insulation consists of the board itself as well as the coating. In other cases, solid insulation consists of the encapsulating material. 3.7 insulation distance the insulation distance of a coated printed board is the shortest distance between conductive parts locate
38、d on the base material (see Figure C.1 ofAnnex C) 3.8 spacing spacing is any combination of clearances, creepage distances and insulation distances 4 Design requirements 4.1 Principles Spacings less than those specified in IEC664-1 are permitted between conductors under coatings if specified require
39、ments and tests are met. The requirements and relaxations are also applicable where coatings are applied to substrates and assemblies which are similar to printed wiring boards. NOTEExamples of such substrates are hybrid integrated circuits and thick-film technology. 4.1.1 Application range regardin
40、g environment The requirements of this part apply to printed board assemblies where the micro-environment at the surface of the coating is not worse than pollution degree2for type A coating and pollution degree3for type B coating. 4.1.2 Types of coating Coating or encapsulation may be used in two wa
41、ys to allow reduced spacings between conductors: type A coating, by improving the environment for spacings between printed wiring conductors under the coating to pollution degree1; type B coating, by enclosing the conductors in solid insulation so that the clearance and creepage distance requirement
42、s are not applicable between conductors under the coating. Coating can be effective between two conducting parts if it covers either one or both conductive parts, together with at least80% of the creepage distance between them. NOTEAs a result, some coated printed board assemblies can be used with h
43、igher voltage or reduced distances between conductive parts compared to the same printed board assembly when uncoated.BS7822-3:1995 BSI 08-1999 3 Clearance and creepage distance requirements according to IEC664-1 apply to all uncoated parts of the printed board assembly and between conductive part o
44、ver the coating. 4.2 Voltage stresses 4.2.1 Steady-state stresses Steady-state stresses are long-term stresses due to the working voltage. Solid insulation and creepage distances of functional insulation shall be designed to withstand the working voltage across the insulation. For creepage distances
45、 of basic insulation of circuits immediately energized from the supply mains, the voltage reference for Table 4 of IEC664-1 shall be taken from Table 3a or Table 3b of IEC664-1. The insulation shall also withstand the recurring peak value of the working voltage and partial discharges shall not be ma
46、intained. Therefore, the partial discharge extinction voltage shall be higher than the recurring peak value of the working voltage. NOTENon-periodic transient overvoltages are not expected to have significant cumulative effect on solid insulation. However, transient overvoltages which are produced f
47、requently, although irregularly, within the equipment should be taken into account, since they can cause partial discharges leading to a failure. 4.2.2 Transient stresses due to overvoltage The impulse withstand voltage of basic insulation on a printed board assembly shall take into account: mains-b
48、orne transients, in accordance with Table 44B and Table 44C of IEC364-4-443; transients from other external sources, such as a telecommunication line or aerial; internally generated overvoltages. If the coated printed board assembly is part of an equipment, its rated impulse voltage shall be based o
49、n the maximum transient overvoltage that can occur at the interface of the printed board assembly. 4.2.3 Temporary stresses due to overvoltages Temporary overvoltage stresses due to faults between the high-voltage and low-voltage distribution systems are specified inIEC 364-4-443. 4.2.4 Temporary stresses due to power frequency dielectric testing Since power frequency test voltages may exceed the stresses described in4.2.1 to4.2.3, coated printed board assemblies which are part of an equipment shall
