Feature Presentation







What is IPC-1752A?

Institute of Printed Circuits

⬥ Created a data exchange standard to support not only the requirements of RoHS and REACH, but also those to come in the future IPC-1752

⬥ First released as a PDF, but has not been supported in years

⬥ Currently available in XML

⬥ The most highly adopted standard for materials data exchange







What is Full Material Disclosure?

Depends on who you ask

In the electronics industry, this would mean 100% disclosure of every substance down to the homogeneous level

◆ Without this level of disclosure, an FMD would not demonstrate compliance to the RoHS Directive

In an industry which does not have any regulatory requirement to restrict or disclose substances at the homogeneous level, this could mean 100% disclosure at the “Article” level (i.e. total concentration)

◆ Having 100% disclosure at the Article level would support compliance to REACH SVHC communication requirements and a variety of other legal requirements







What Format Can be Used for Creating an FMD?

⬥ PDF⬥ Excel⬥ Word⬥ HTML⬥ Pen & Pencil⬥ XML







Best Practices

❖ Immediately input FMD data into an accepted standard — IPC-1752A schema — in the form of an XML file

❖ Include a Class A (high-level REACH or RoHS statement) or Class C (statement of threshold exceedance at the substance level for REACH or RoHS) statement in conjunction with your Class D FMD

Note: If you make an error upon input of the substance data, our software FMD validation will catch the discrepancy upon submission into our system. If you use our XML generator (FMDComplete) we can

catch the error before the file is generated.

FMD







Best Practices

❖ Know your Articles! Your high-level product is typically a “Complex Article” — meaning it is built with several other Articles or even several other Complex Articles

❖ Understand what you are asking of your supply chain and clearly establish those expectations

ScenarioYou have created an email campaign requesting an FMD declaration from your supply chain. The supplier is now responding by performing a supplier portal submission.

Why Is This Important?

■ This is the primary form of data-sharing communication between you and your supply chain.

■ supply chain engagement is the foundation of our partnered activity.

How Can Assent Help?Assent’s world-class Supplier Portal allows for easy submission of IPC-1752A ClassD FMDs by your supply chain.

Use Case #1: Supplier Submission of FMD







ScenarioYou are a supplier and don’t have an FMD in response to your customer’s request for one. You are presented with the option of building one in the Supplier Portal.


■ Until suppliers are presented with this request, they may not be familiar with what an FMD is.

■ Whether it’s providing an FMD, or even just a Class A declaration, the IPC-1752A XML format is the best option for exchanging this data.

How Can Assent Help?We provide a free, user-friendly, IPC-1752A XML Generator tool - FMDComplete.

ScenarioYour supplier has made an FMD submission for a component part, and you want to view the impact of that data against your product.


■ The data provided by your suppliers is what defines your products

■ Understanding submitted data at both the part level and the higher context of Product Level provides a full picture of your program

How Can Assent Help?We provide BOM data views at all levels and stages of your product’s build.

Use Case #3: Part and Product Trees







ScenarioYou’ve received the data, you’ve viewed the data, and now you want a report to share amongst your colleagues or customers.


■ Having a full understanding of your program at the Product BOM level allows you to stay ahead of ever changing regulatory demands.

■ Get a view of your program’s strength within the seconds it takes to generate a report.

How Can Assent Help?We provide an array of reports for any regulation, communicating the data that matters to you.
