H05K PRINTED CIRCUITS; CASINGS OR CONSTRUCTIONAL DETAILS OF ELECTRIC APPARATUS; MANUFACTURE OF ASSEMBLAGES OF ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS
Introduced: September 1968
Description
Covers the design, manufacture, and assembly of printed circuit boards (PCBs), including circuit patterns, substrate materials, and interconnection technologies. Encompasses mechanical casings, enclosures, and structural components that house electrical apparatus, as well as manufacturing processes for assembling discrete electrical and electronic components onto circuit boards. Addresses thermal management, insulation, shielding, and interconnection methods for electronic equipment.
Of 10 combined children, 8 exist in both systems.
2 codes are CPC-only extensions.
Note: 2 CPC extensions are marked as secondary classification only.
3 shared codes have differing titles between IPC and CPC.
