APPENDIX F
GENERAL PROVISIONS FOR TAPE AUTOMATED BONDED MICROCIRCUITS
F.1 SCOPE
F.1.1 Scope. This appendix contains provisions for tape automated bonded (TAB) microcircuits. It provides
design guidelines, in-process controls, screening and technology conformance inspection (TCI) requirements, and
general manufacturing guidelines in order to produce a compliant TAB microcircuit. It is intended for use in
conjunction with a manufacturer's compliancy program. This appendix is a mandatory part of the specification. The
information contained herein is intended for compliance. However, for QML microcircuits the manufacturers may
offer approved alternatives that demonstrate a process control system that achieves at least the same level of quality
and reliability as could be achieved by this appendix.
F.2 APPLICABLE DOCUMENTS
F.2.1 General. The documents listed in this section are specified in sections F.3 or F.4 of this appendix. This
section does not include documents cited in other sections of this appendix or recommended for additional

users are cautioned that they must meet all specified requirements of documents cited in sections F.3 and F.4 of this
appendix, whether or not they are listed.
