Device embedding assembly technology - Part 2-5: Guidelines - Implementation of a 3D data format for device embedded substrate
IEC 62878-2-5:2019 specifies requirements based on XML schema that represents a design data format for device embedded substrate, which is a board comprising embedded active and passive devices whose electrical connections are made by means of a via, electroplating, conductive paste or printing of conductive material.
This data format is to be used for simulation (e.g. stress, thermal, EMC), tooling, manufacturing, assembly, and inspection requirements. Furthermore, the data format is used for transferring information among printed board designers, printed board simulation engineer, manufacturers, and assemblers.
IEC 62878-2-5:2019 applies to substrates using organic material. It neither applies to the re-distribution layer (RDL) nor to the electronic modules defined as M-type business model in IEC 62421.
Technologie d’ensemble avec appareil(s) intégré(s) - Partie 2-5 : Lignes directrices - Mise en œuvre d’un format de données 3D pour un substrat avec appareil(s) intégré(s)
L’IEC 62878-2-5:2019 spécifie des exigences fondées sur le schéma XML qui représente un format de données de conception pour le substrat avec appareil(s) intégré(s), c’est-à-dire une carte avec appareil(s) intégré(s) actif(s) ou passif(s) dont les connexions électriques se font au moyen d’un trou de liaison, de galvanoplastie, de pâte conductrice ou d’impression du matériau conducteur.
Ce format de données doit être utilisé pour les exigences de simulation (par exemple, contrainte, thermique, compatibilité électromagnétique), d’outillage, de fabrication, d’assemblage et d’examen. De plus, le format de données est utilisé pour le transfert d’informations entre les concepteurs de cartes imprimées, les ingénieurs de simulation des cartes imprimées, les fabricants et les assembleurs.
La présente partie de l’IEC 62878 s’applique aux substrats utilisant des matériaux organiques. Elle ne s'applique ni à la couche de redistribution (RDL, re-distribution layer), ni aux modules électroniques définis comme un modèle commercial de type M dans l'IEC 62421.
General Information
Relations
Overview
IEC 62878-2-5:2019 - Device embedding assembly technology - Part 2-5 provides guidelines for implementing a 3D data format for device embedded substrate designs. The standard defines an XML schema-based design data format to describe boards that contain embedded active and passive devices whose electrical connections use vias, electroplating, conductive paste, or printed conductive materials. The data format supports simulation, tooling, manufacturing, assembly and inspection, and enables information exchange between printed board designers, simulation engineers, manufacturers and assemblers.
Scope highlights
- Applies to substrates using organic material.
- Intended for 3D representation of embedded-device substrates (including SiP interposers).
- Excludes redistribution layers (RDL) and M-type electronic modules defined in IEC 62421.
Key Topics and Technical Requirements
- XML schema data model: A structured XML-based representation for complete 3D design data and metadata.
- 3D expression and coordinates: Definitions for coordinate origins, position description and board-relative placement to enable accurate 3D modelling.
- Layer concept and stack-up: Formal description of layer maps, stack-up information and virtual layers for multi-layer embedded substrates.
- Device and package description: Structured data for embedded devices, SiP elements, lands, vias and terminal definitions.
- Net, artwork and port information: Net connectivity, artwork details, external/internal ports, and package-to-board relationships.
- Primitive geometry and shapes: Points, areas, lines, letter shapes, truncated pyramids and other geometric primitives for accurate physical modelling.
- File organization: Recommended one-file or two-file structures for packaging design data and layering.
- User expansion fields: Extension points for vendor-specific or project-specific metadata.
- Use cases supported: Stress, thermal and EMC simulation; tooling and manufacturing planning; assembly and inspection workflows.
Applications
- Exchanging design-to-manufacturing data for embedded-component PCBs and system-in-package (SiP) substrates.
- Feeding 3D simulation tools for mechanical stress, thermal and EMC analysis.
- Generating tooling files and assembly instructions for manufacturers and assemblers.
- Supporting inspection and quality workflows through precise 3D model and port/land definitions.
Who should use this standard
- PCB and substrate designers working with embedded active/passive devices
- EDA/CAD tool vendors implementing data exchange formats
- Simulation engineers (thermal, stress, EMC)
- Board manufacturers, assemblers and inspection teams
- Supply chain partners requiring standardized 3D design data exchange
Related Standards
- IEC 62421 - referenced in scope for M-type module definitions
- Other parts of the IEC 62878 series on device embedding assembly technology (see IEC for complete series)
Using IEC 62878-2-5:2019 helps organizations standardize 3D device-embedded substrate data, reduce ambiguity in design-to-manufacture handoffs, and improve interoperability across CAD/EDA, simulation and production toolchains.

FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote international
co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To this end and in
addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications, Technical Reports,
Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as "IEC Publication(s)"). Their
preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested in the subject dealt with
may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-governmental organizations liaising
with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely with the International Organization for
Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.
3) IEC Publications have the form of recommendations for international use and are accepted by IEC National
Committees in that sense. While all reasonable efforts are made to ensure that the technical content of IEC
Publications is accurate, IEC cannot be held responsible for the way in which they are used or for any
misinterpretation by any end user.
4) In order to promote international uniformity, IEC National Committees undertake to apply IEC Publications
transparently to the maximum extent possible in their national and regional publications. Any divergence between
any IEC Publication and the corresponding national or regional publication shall be clearly indicated in the latter.
5) IEC itself does not provide any attestation of conformity. Independent certification bodies provide conformity
assessment services and, in some areas, access to IEC marks of conformity. IEC is not responsible for any
services carried out by independent certification bodies.
6) All users should ensure that they have the latest edition of this publication.
7) No liability shall attach to IEC or its directors, employees, servants or agents including individual experts and
members of its technical committees and IEC National Committees for any personal injury, property damage or
other damage of any nature whatsoever, whether direct or indirect, or for costs (including legal fees) and expenses
arising out of the publication, use of, or reliance upon, this IEC Publication or any other IEC Publications.
8) Attention is drawn to the Normative references cited in this publication. Use of the referenced publications is
indispensable for the correct application of this publication.
9) Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this IEC Publication may be the subject of patent
rights. IEC shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
International Standard IEC 62878-2-5 has been prepared by IEC technical committee 91:

DEVICE EMBEDDING ASSEMBLY TECHNOLOGY –
Part 2-5: Guidelines – Implementation of a 3D data format
for device embedded substrate
1 Scope
This part of IEC 62878 specifies requirements based on XML schema that represents a design
data format for device embedded substrate, which is a board comprising embedded active and
passive devices whose electrical connections are made by means of a via, electroplating,
conductive paste or printing of conductive material.
This data format is to be used for simulation (e.g. stress, thermal, EMC), tooling, manufacturing,
assembly, and inspection requirements. Furthermore, the data format is used for transferring
information among printed board designers, printed board simulation engineer, manufacturers,
and assemblers.
This part of IEC 62878 applies to substrates using organic material. It neither applies to the
re-distribution layer (RDL) nor to the electronic modules defined as M-type business model in
IEC 62421.

4.1 Flow chart design of device embedded substrate
Figure 1 shows the design flow of a device embedded substrate. The design data can be
directly sent to a board manufacturing system using this format, or can be converted to CAM
data and then be used in production. The data contain 3D information of coordinates and
shapes of devices used. It is possible to check the status of device embedding in a board, and
also make it a common knowledge in production know-how of a production line.
This file format describes the detailed 3D information of the following electronic circuit boards,
including device embedded substrate and SiP (system in package), and makes it possible to
use necessary information from the stage of design to the fabrication of products.

Figure 9 – One file structure (recommended)
Figure 10 – Two file structure
4.5 3D expression
4.5.1 General
The format is expressed in 3D coordinates. 3D coordinate expression is a space expressed by
three diagonal axes, X, Y and Z.
4.5.2 Coordinates
The coordinates of this format are shown in Figure 11 and have the following definitions.
1) Rotation of an axis is anticlockwise.
2) Selection of unit length may be selected from mm, µm and nm.
3) Directions of axes are horizontal direction for x-axis, side direction for y-axis and vertical
(height/thickness) direction for z-axis.
– 20 – IEC 62878-2-5:2019 © IEC 2019
Figure 11 – Definition of coordinates
4.5.3 Position description
The specification of a 3D position is available as shown in Figure 12 to indicate layer structure
and 3D coordination. The directions of the axes can be expressed in a horizontal direction for the
x-axis, a side direction for the y-axis and a height direction for the z-axis.
Figure 12 – Position definition
4.5.4 Relation between coordinate origin and board position
There is no specified relation between coordinates origin [(x, y, z) = (0, 0, 0)] and the board
position as shown in Figure 13.
Figure 13 – Relation between coordinates and board position
4.6 Layer concept
There are two types of layers: the conductor layer and the virtual layer, as illustrated in Figure 14.
Characteristics of layers are explained below. The conductor layer is the layer coinciding with
the terminals of an embedding component and a conducting layer. The conductor layer with
internal posts that can be connected to the embedded device is the embedding layer. This
concept is not applicable to the embedding of a device that is not connected to a conductor layer,
such as via connection. The virtual layer is considered as an imaginally conductor layer at
interconnection points of an embedded component.
This format can maintain coordinate data and design data in both of layer base and the 3D Z-axis
base design. It is recommended to maintain the layer-based data when the board structure
information is required in IEC TS 62678-2-3. Use of 3D Z-coordinate base can be used for
describing design data such as that for the SiP, which may not be an appropriate use of the
above structure. The 3D Z-coordinate base may not be appropriate to describe information
necessary in the production process. Additional information transfer other than defined the
present format data may be necessary between processes (among designs and design to
production) and efficiency may be lowered in design and production.
Figure 14 – Layer concept
4.7 Substrate data
4.7.1 General
As shown in Figure 8, board data are composed of nine information. Each type of information
listed below is defined from 4.7.2 to 4.8.6.
1) Layer map information
2) Device arrangement information
– 22 – IEC 62878-2-5:2019 © IEC 2019
3) Basic forms
4) Net information
5) Artwork information
6) Package information
7) External port information
8) Internal port information
9) User data expansion information
4.7.2 Layer map information
This information maintains the relation between inner and outer layers as devices are mounted
and embedded, as shown in Figure 15 and Figure 16.
1) Information of mounting layers
The information shows connections in each mounting layer and mounting direction.
Device is embedded in layer = L1 (conductor layer), and connected in L1
Device is embedded in layer = L3 (conductor layer), and connected in L3
Device is embedded in layer = L2 (conductor layer), and connected in L2-U11 (virtual layer)
Figure 15 – Layer construction
2) Simplified layer construction
Logic layers for embedding devices and for boards are combined in cases where the layer
map information is simplified. It is possible only in the case where there is only one logic
layer of the same type in one physical layer.
