On International E-Waste Day 2024, let’s stand together and challenge the throwaway culture that dominates our society. By embracing the Repair Don’t Waste philosophy, we can make a real impact on the e-waste crisis. This October, let’s repair, not replace—and work towards a sustainable future, one circuit board at a time.
IPC-7711/21 – Revision C – Standard Only Rework, Modification and Repair of Electronic Assemblies. This guide provides procedures for rework, repair and modification of printed board assemblies.
The rework of circuit boards has increased drastically over recent years due to the shortage of components in the global market. Many technology users and service providers are quickly becoming aware of needing to repair and recycle their electronic equipment and components, not only for financial benefit but in order to reduce waste and its damaging effects on the environment.
