IEC 60749-32:2002+A1:2010 is applicable to semiconductor devices (discrete devices and integrated circuits). The object of this test is to determine whether the device ignites due to external heating. The test uses a needle flame, simulating the effect of small flames which may result from fault conditions within equipment containing the device. This consolidated version consists of the first edition (2002) and its amendment 1 (2010). Therefore, no need to order amendment in addition to this publication.
