PDX (IPC-257X)
PDX is the Product Data eXchange standard for manufacturing. PDX is a multi-part standard, represented by the IPC 2570 series of specifications.
PDX files are text files in eXtensible Markup Language (XML) format.
PDX files can be used to describe:
- [Bill of Materials] (BOM)

- Drawings
- Engineering Change Requests (ECR)
- Engineering Change Orders (ECO)
- Deviations (concessions)
The specification of PDX is defined in three specification documents:
IPC-2571

IPC-2576
Sectional Requirements for Electronics Manufacturing Supply Chain Communication of As-Built Product Data
IPC-2578
