NASA-STD-8739.2 (W/ CHANGE 1), NASA TECHNICAL STANDARD: WORKMANSHIP STANDARD FOR SURFACE MOUNT TECHNOLOGY (SMT) (06 JUN 2008).,
The NASA standards for soldering, NASA-STD-8739.2 and NASA-STD-8739.3, are cancelled as of October 17, 2011. NASA-STD-8739.6, Implementation for NASA Workmanship Standards was published in 2012 to provide additional instructions for implementation of J-STD-001ES on NASA Programs ASA has adopted IPC J-STD-001ES for all Programs and Projects, effective on October 17, 2011
This document has been issued to make available to project managers a technical standard where surface mount attachment techniques are to be used. The document: Prescribes NASA\'s requirements, procedures, and documenting requirements for hand and machine soldering of surface mount electrical connections. These may be tailored to the program applications to obtain the most cost effective, best quality product. Describes basic considerations necessary to ensure reliable soldered surface mount connections. Establishes the responsibility for documentation of those fabrication and inspection procedures to be used for NASA work including supplier innovations, special processes, and changes in technology. For the purpose of this document the term supplier is defined as in-house NASA, NASA contractors, and subtier contractors. Procuring NASA Enterprise Programs or Centers shall review this document for applicability to NASA contracts as well as for applicability to its internal activities. Questions concerning the application of this publication to specific procurements or requests should be referred to the NASA Enterprise Program or Center. Comments and suggestions for improving this publication may be submitted using the form \"NASA Standard Improvement Proposal.\" A copy of this form is included at the end of the document. Other processes such as conformal coating or cabling and harnessing not covered by this document may be required to fabricate hardware involving surface mounted devices. The design, materials, and processes not covered shall be defined in engineering documentation. This Standard cancels NASA Assurance Standard 5300.4(3M), Workmanship Standard for Surface Mount Technology.
