The standard establishes electronic data formats and provides standardized forms to simplify the exchange of materials declaration information while improving efficiency and reducing costs. Suppliers and their customers can use IPC-1752 to exchange data at their choice of three reporting levels which are organized into six reporting classes: Class 1 – RoHS reporting at a homogeneous level in yes/no format Class 2 – Same as Class 1 with the addition of manufacturing information Class 3 – RoHS reporting at a homogeneous level in yes/no format and JIG (Joint Industry Guide) level A and B a the homogeneous material level and other substances at the part level Class 4 – Same as Class 3 with the addition of manufacturing information Class 5 – RoHS reporting at a homogeneous level in yes/no format and JIG level A and B at the homogeneous material level and other substances at the homogeneous level. Class 6 – Same as Class 5 with the addition of manufacturing information. This document may be downloaded for free. Visit www.ipc.org/IPC-175x for more information.
