GenCAM is documented in IPC-2511A, IPC-2511B and a series of seven major sectional standards. These are identified as IPC-2510 series. All seven sectional standards, numbered IPC-2512A through IPC-2518A, were released in November 2000. Additional information is available by accessing the GenCAM website at www.gencam.org. This exciting standardised format is user friendly, easy to read, machine independent, cost competitive and updateable.

IPC-2511B, General Requirements for Implementation of Product Manufacturing Description Data and Transfer Methodology (GenCam®) UPDATED! Revision B of IPC-2511 (GenCam® 2.0) identifies the generic requirements for implementation of product manufacturing description data and transfer. IPC-2511B helps users transfer design requirements and manufacturing expectations from computer-aided design systems to computer-aided manufacturing systems for printed board fabrication, assembly and test. It establishes the rules and protocol of describing data for electronic transfer in a neutral format IPC-2511B is part of the GenCAM series, which is documented in seven major sectional standards.
