II. Introductions

III. Meeting Outline

Purpose: Prepare for the D63 Face-to-Face Meeting to be held during the Fall IPC Standards Development Sessions in Fort Worth, Texas on Tuesday October 15, 2013.

Goal: Continue review of the published standard - Requirements for Printed Electronics Functional Materials (IPC-4591) and identify new topics that will be included in its Revision A.

IV. General Discussion for IPC-4591 Revision A

In preparation for the Face-to-Face Meeting in Fort Worth, participants were encouraged to review IPC-4591.

Below are the topics that were discussed during the meeting:

 Expand Scope beyond conductive materials to include additional classes: o Semiconductor . Organic . Inorganic . Organic/Inorganic blends o Dielectric . Organic . Inorganic . Organic/Inorganic blends o Resistive . Organic . Inorganic . Organic/Inorganic blends  Introduce and define additional classes of materials: o Semiconductor o Dielectric o Resistive  Review published textbooks to include terminology for intrinsic electronic properties of materials: o Recommended textbook to review: Materials Science and Engineering: An Introduction, 8th Ed. William Callister (ISBN : 978-0-470-41997-7)  Generate a figure to be included in Revision A that quantitatively defines the intrinsic electronic properties of materials  Generate a figure to be included in Revision A that shows the different potential applications  Engage additional subject matter experts to assist in the preparation of Revision A: o Semiconductor . Materials Suppliers (examples follow)  3M  Polyera  Merck . Academia (examples follow)  University of Kentucky o Professor Anthony http://www.chem.uky.edu/research/anthony/ o Stanford University, UC Berkeley http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/09/130923155544.htm o Dielectric . Materials Suppliers (examples follow)  DuPont  Dow  Henkel  Recruit subject matter experts from OEMs investigating PE materials for future applications: . Google . Amazon . Apple

Subcommittee Leadership encouraged D63 Members to submit topics for Revision A directly to KAVI as comments or via e-mail. The preferred submission procedure is to use the IPC Comment Form in KAVI.

V. Next Steps and Timeline for IPC-4591 Revision A

 Meet during Fall IPC Standards Development Meetings in Fort Worth, Texas  Circulate Revision A in January 2014 to request comments/edits for IPC-4591 Revision A prior to the Face-to-Face Meeting to be held during APEX 2014. VI. Meeting Adjourned 2.45PM EST
