IEC 60749-24:2025 specifies unbiased highly accelerated stress testing (HAST). HAST is performed for the purpose of evaluating the reliability of non-hermetically packaged solid-state devices in humid environments. It is a highly accelerated test which employs temperature and humidity under non-condensing conditions to accelerate the penetration of moisture through the external protective material (encapsulant or seal) or along the interface between the external protective material and the metallic conductors which pass through it. Bias is not applied in this test to ensure that the failure mechanisms potentially overshadowed by bias can be uncovered (e.g. galvanic corrosion).
This test is used to identify failure mechanisms internal to the package and is destructive.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) rearrangement of clauses to reposition requirements;
b) addition of two notes to the post-test electrical procedures.

IEC 60749-7:2025 specifies the testing and measurement of water vapour and other gas content of the atmosphere inside a metal or ceramic hermetically sealed device. The test is used as a measure of the quality of the sealing process and to provide information about the long-term chemical stability of the atmosphere inside the package. It is applicable to semiconductor devices sealed in such a manner but generally only used for high reliability applications such as military or aerospace.
Of particular interest is the measurement of the primary sealing gases (or lack thereof), the moisture content, the presence of bombing gases that are indicative of non-hermeticity (e.g. helium), oxygen to argon ratio indicative of room air ~ 20 to 1 (± 10 %), dissimilar concentration of internally sealed gases (e.g. nitrogen, helium) than originally sealed in the device package, the presence of leak test fluid (i.e. fluorocarbon, helium, air), and all other gases to determine if the device meets the specified moisture, hermeticity and other criteria. Also of interest is the measurement of all the other gases since they reflect upon the quality of the sealing process and provide information about the long-term chemical stability of the atmosphere inside the device. The presence of leak test fluorocarbon vapour in the internal gas analysis (IGA) is an indication of failure to meet leak test requirements of IEC 60749‑8.
This test is destructive.

IEC 60749-22-1:2025 provides a means for determining the strength and failure mode of a wire bonded to, and the corresponding interconnects on, a die or package bonding surface and can be performed on unencapsulated or decapsulated devices. This test method can be performed on gold alloy, copper alloy, and silver alloy thermosonic (ball and stitch) bonds made of wire ranging in diameter from 15 µm to 76 µm (0,000 6" to 0,003"); and on gold alloy, copper alloy, and aluminium alloy ultrasonic (wedge) bonds made of wire ranging in diameter from 18 µm to 600 µm (0,000 7" to 0,024").
This wire bond pull test method is destructive. It is appropriate for use in process development, process control, or quality assurance.
This test method allows for two distinct methods of pulling wires:
a) One method incorporates the use of a hook that is placed under the wire and is then pulled.
b) One method requires that after the wire be cut, a clamp is placed on the wire connected to the bond to be tested, and this clamp is used to pull the wire.
This test method does not include bond strength testing using wire bond shear testing. Wire bond shear testing is described in IEC 60749-22-2.
This first edition, together with the first edition of IEC 60749-22-2:2025, cancels and replaces the first edition of IEC 60749-22 published in 2002.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) Major update, including new techniques and use of new materials (e.g. copper wire) involving a complete rewrite as two separate subparts (this document and IEC 60749-22-2).
This International Standard is to be used in conjunction with IEC 60749-22-2:2025.

IEC 60749-22-2:2025 establishes a means for determining the strength of a ball bond to a die or package bonding surface and can be performed on pre-encapsulation or post-encapsulation devices. This measure of bond strength is extremely important in determining two features:
a) the integrity of the metallurgical bond which has been formed, and
b) the quality of ball bonds to die or package bonding surfaces.
This test method covers thermosonic (ball) bonds made with small diameter wire from 15 µm to 76 µm (0,000 6" to 0,003").
This test method can only be used when the bonds are large enough to allow for proper contact with the shear test chisel and when there are no adjacent interfering structures that would hinder the movement of the chisel. For consistent shear results the ball height will be at least 4,0 µm (0,000 6 ") for ball bonds, which is the current state of the art for bond shear test equipment at the time of this revision.
This test method can also be used on ball bonds that have had their wire removed and on to which a second bond wire (typically a stitch bond) is placed. This is known as "stitch on ball" and "reverse bonding". See Annex A for additional information.
The wire bond shear test is destructive. It is appropriate for use in process development, process control, or quality assurance, or both.
This test method can be used on ultrasonic (wedge) bonds, however its use has not been shown to be a consistent indicator of bond integrity. See Annex B for information on performing shear testing on wedge bonds.
This test method does not include bond strength testing using wire bond pull testing. Wire bond pull testing is described in IEC 60749-22-1.
This first edition, together with the first edition of IEC 60749-22-1, cancels and replaces the first edition IEC 60749-22 published in 2002. This International Standard is to be used in conjunction with IEC 60749-22-1:2025.

IEC 61496-3:2025 specifies additional requirements for the design, construction and testing of non‑contact electro-sensitive protective equipment (ESPE) designed specifically to detect persons or parts of persons as part of a safety-related system, employing active opto-electronic protective devices responsive to diffuse reflection (AOPDDRs) for the sensing function. Special attention is directed to requirements which ensure that an appropriate safety-related performance is achieved. An ESPE can include optional safety-related functions, the requirements for which are given both in Annex A of this document and in Annex A of IEC 61496‑1:2020.
NOTE "Non-contact" means that physical contact is not required for sensing.
This document does not specify the dimensions or configurations of the detection zone and its disposition in relation to hazardous parts for any particular application, nor what constitutes a hazardous state of any machine. It is restricted to the functioning of the ESPE and how it interfaces with the machine.
AOPDDRs are devices that have either
- one or more detection zone(s) specified in two dimensions (AOPDDR-2D), or
- one or more detection zone(s) specified in three dimensions (AOPDDR-3D)
wherein radiation in the near infrared range is emitted by an emitting element(s). When the emitted radiation impinges on an object (for example, a person or part of a person), a portion of the emitted radiation is reflected to a receiving element(s) by diffuse reflection. This reflection is used to determine the position of the object.
Opto-electronic devices that perform only a single one-dimensional spot-like distance measurement, for example, optical proximity switches, are not covered by this document.
This document is limited to ESPE that do not require human intervention for detection. It is limited to ESPE that detect objects entering into or being present in a detection zone(s).
This document does not address those aspects required for complex classification or differentiation of the object detected.
This document does not address requirements and tests for outdoor application.
Excluded from this document are AOPDDRs employing radiation with the peak of wavelength outside the range 820 nm to 1 100 nm, and those employing radiation other than that generated by the AOPDDR itself. For sensing devices that employ radiation of wavelengths outside this range, this document can be used as a guide. This document is relevant for AOPDDRs having a minimum detectable object size in the range from 30 mm to 200 mm.
This document can be relevant to applications other than those for the protection of persons, for example, for the protection of machinery or products from mechanical damage. In those applications, different requirements can be appropriate, for example when the materials that are recognized by the sensing function have different properties from those of persons and their clothing.
This document does not deal with electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) emission requirements.

IEC 60122-2:2025 has been compiled in response to a generally expressed desire on the part of both users and manufacturers for guidelines to the use of quartz crystal units for filters and oscillators so that the crystal units may be used to their best advantage.
It draws attention to some of the more fundamental questions which will be considered by the user before it places its order for a unit for a new application, and in so doing will, it is hoped, help ensure against unsatisfactory performance, unfavourable cost and non-availability. It is not the function of this document to explain theory, nor to attempt to cover all the eventualities that can arise in practical circumstances. Lastly, it it is not considered as a substitute for close liaison between manufacturer and user.
Standard specifications, such as those of the IEC of which these guidelines form a part, and national specifications or detail specifications issued by manufacturers, will define the available combinations of the resonant characteristics and the temperature characteristic. These specifications are compiled to include a wide range of quartz crystal units with standardized performances. It cannot be over-emphasized that it is the responsibility of the user , wherever possible, to select the quartz crystal units from these specifications, when available, even if it can lead to making small modifications to the circuit to enable the use of standard resonators. This applies particularly to the selection of the nominal frequency.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) addition of SC cut type and related requirements;
b) addition of ageing calculation and low level of drive requirements according to the general specification,
c) update of the frequency temperature curve according to the common cut requirements;
d) removal of infrequently used product types.
