BANNOCKBURN, IL – A new standard jointly released by IPC and JPCA describes requirements for base materials used in printed electronics.

IPC/JPCA-4921, Requirements for Printed Electronics Base Materials (Substrates), defines terms and establishes basic requirements for five material categories of substrates used in printed electronics: ceramic, organic, metal, glass and other.

The standard provides a starting point for IPC’s Printed Electronics Initiative to establish a critical segment of the infrastructure that will help the industry expand more quickly.

The two trade groups plan to continue cooperating on additional standards, IPC said.

IPC members may request a free single-user download by contacting MemberTechRequests@ipc.org within 90 days of the document’s publication.
