Engineering standards, explained

Plain-language guides to the standards behind Volteq's calculators — what each one actually says, the governing formula in words, when it applies, and where the simplifications bite. Each guide links straight through to the calculator that implements it.

📖

IPC-2221

Where the IPC-2221 current-capacity curve fit comes from, what it assumes, and how it differs from IPC-2152.

📖

IEC 60664-1

Creepage vs clearance, and how pollution degree, CTI, working voltage and altitude drive IEC 60664-1 distances.

📖

VDI 2230

The cone-of-compression stiffness model and the T = K·F·d torque-preload relationship behind VDI 2230.

Engineering estimation tool — verify critical designs against the referenced standards and, where required, physical testing.
