This standard PD IEC/PAS 61182-12:2014 Generic requirements for printed board assembly products manufacturing description data and transfer methodology is classified in these ICS categories:
35.110 Networking
33.160.99 Other audio, video and audiovisual equipment
31.180 Printed circuits and boards
33.180.01 Fibre optic systems in general
IEC PAS 61182-2:2014(E) specifies the XML schema that represents the intelligent data file format used to describe printed board and printed board assembly products with details sufficient for tooling, manufacturing, assembly, and inspection requirements. This format may be used for transmitting information between a printed board designer and a manufacturing or assembly facility. The data is most useful when the manufacturing cycle includes computer-aided processes and numerical control machines.
