IEC EN 61189-6 Electrical Materials - Test Methods for Materials Used in the Manufacturing of Electronic Components

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of IEC EN 61189-6 testing. IEC EN 61189-6 is a catalog of test methods representing methodologies and procedures applicable to materials used in the manufacture of electronic components.

This part of IEC EN 61189 contains test methods for evaluating materials used in the manufacture of electronic components. Methods are independent with sufficient detail and explanation to ensure uniformity and reproducibility in procedures and test methodologies.

Test method numbers are of no importance to a final test sequence; this responsibility rests with the relevant specification that calls the performed method. In most cases, the relevant specification also describes the pass/fail criterion.

The regime in which routine calibration of test equipment is carried out must be clearly stated in the quality documentation of the supplier or agency conducting the test and must meet the requirements of ISO 9001.

Calibration must be performed by an organization accredited to a national or international measurement standards institute. There must be a continuous chain of calibrations according to a national or international standard.

The calibration interval will normally be one year. Equipment that is consistently outside of acceptable accuracy limits will be subject to shortened calibration intervals. Equipment that is consistently within acceptable limits may be subject to relaxed calibration intervals.

A record of the calibration and maintenance history should be maintained for each instrument. These records should indicate the uncertainty of the calibration technique (in ±% deviation) so that measurement uncertainties can be summed up and determined.

This test method is designed to determine the halide content of streams attributable to chlorides and bromides. The halide content is reported as percent by weight of chloride to the solid (non-volatile) portion of the stream, or in milliequivalents per gram of stream solids. A flow or flow extract sample is titrated to an endpoint and the percentage of chloride or meq/g of halides is calculated.
