NOTES:
2. Tape with or without components shall pass around radius “R” without damage.
1. The cavity defined by A0, B0, and T shall be configured to provide sufficient clearance
surrounding the component so that:
3. Bar code labeling (if required) shall be on the side of the reel opposite the sprocket
holes. Refer to EIA-556.
a) the component does not protrude beyond either surface of the carrier tape%
b) the component can be removed from the cavity in a vertical direction without
mechanical restriction after the top cover tape has been removed%
c) rotation of the component is limited to 20º maximum (see Sketches A & B)%
d) lateral movement of the component is restricted to 0.5mm maximum
(see Sketch C).
4. If P1 = 2.0mm, the tape may not properly index in all tape feeders.
