IPC 1791 Historical [ Withdrawn ]

IPC 1791 provides minimum requirements, policies and procedures for printed board design, fabrication and assembly organizations and/or companies to become trusted sources for markets requiring high levels of confidence in the integrity of delivered products. These trusted sources shall ensure quality, supply chain risk management (SCRM), security and chain of custody (ChoC).

Demonstration of the ability to meet and maintain the requirements of this standard as trusted design, fabrication or assembly organization benefits customers that provide end-products for markets desiring a high level of integrity assurance (e.g., commercial, industrial, military, aerospace, automotive and medical).

In the context of this standard, the terms trust and trusted are used to reflect a commitment to delivered product and process integrity assurance by printed board designers, fabricators and assemblers. The user should not confuse this certification with defense-microelectronics-specific "Trusted Supplier" accreditation administered by the Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) Trusted Access Program Office. IPC-1791 certification does not include U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) facility clearance unless compelled by customer-specific requirements and pursued independent of this standard. See more
