Overview

EN IEC 60749-30:2020 (IEC 60749-30:2020) defines a standard preconditioning procedure for non-hermetic surface mount devices (SMDs) prior to reliability testing. The standard specifies a representative preconditioning flow that simulates typical industry multiple solder reflow operations so that downstream in-house reliability tests (qualification and reliability monitoring) properly reflect long‑term behaviour influenced by soldering stress and moisture exposure. This 2020 edition supersedes the 2005 edition and its amendment and is published as Edition 2.0 with a Redline (RLV) showing technical changes.

Key topics and technical requirements

  • Preconditioning flow: A defined sequence to expose plastic‑encapsulated or moisture‑permeable SMD packages to controlled moisture and thermal processes before reliability testing.
  • Device categories: Distinguishes dry‑packed and non‑dry‑packed SMDs, with different soak and handling procedures aligned to IEC 60749-20 moisture sensitivity conditions.
  • Soak / bake / drying: Includes procedures for drying (bake‑out) and controlled soak stages to stabilize device moisture content prior to reflow.
  • Solder reflow: Expanded guidance (Clause 6.7) on solder reflow simulation and solder attachment after reflow to ensure realistic thermal stress exposure representative of multiple reflow cycles.
  • Optional steps: Temperature cycling and flux-application simulation are included as optional procedures when needed by specific reliability protocols.
  • Test apparatus and measurements: Specifies required equipment - moisture chambers, soldering/reflow equipment, optical microscopes, electrical test instruments, bake ovens and optional temperature cycle chambers - plus initial and final electrical and visual inspections.
  • Traceability and correlation: Emphasises matching temperature measurements at the top of the package between semiconductor manufacturers and assemblers to ensure consistent Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) correlation.

Applications and users

  • Semiconductor manufacturers preparing components for qualification and reliability monitoring.
  • PCB assemblers and contract manufacturers seeking to validate assembly processes and MSL handling.
  • Reliability and test engineers conducting in‑house qualification, failure analysis, and long‑term reliability studies.
  • QA laboratories and test houses that perform standardized preconditioning prior to HAST, temperature cycling, and other IEC 60749 series tests.

Related standards

  • IEC 60749-20 (moisture sensitivity and reflow conditions) - closely referenced for soak and MSL correlation.
  • Other parts of the IEC 60749 series (examples): IEC 60749-4, -5, -11, -24, -25, -33 - addressing HAST, THB, temperature change, moisture resistance and temperature cycling.

EN IEC 60749-30:2020 is essential for organizations needing consistent, repeatable preconditioning that links assembly thermal stress to downstream semiconductor reliability results. Keywords: EN IEC 60749-30:2020, preconditioning, non-hermetic surface mount devices, SMD, solder reflow, moisture sensitivity, reliability testing.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence
between any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in
the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and
expenses arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC
Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of
patent rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 60749-30 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 47:
Semiconductor devices.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2005 and
Amendment 1:2011. This edition constitutes a technical revision.
This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous
edition:
a) inclusion of new Clause 3;
b) expansion of 6.7 on solder reflow;
c) inclusion of explanatory notes and clarifications.

1 Scope
This part of IEC 60749 establishes a standard procedure for determining the preconditioning
of non-hermetic surface mount devices (SMDs) prior to reliability testing.
The test method defines the preconditioning flow for non-hermetic solid-state SMDs
representative of a typical industry multiple solder reflow operation.
These SMDs are subjected to the appropriate preconditioning sequence described in this
document prior to being submitted to specific in-house reliability testing (qualification and/or
reliability monitoring) in order to evaluate long term reliability (impacted by soldering stress).
