16、its (F and HFICs). These examinations will normally be used prior to tapping or encapsulation to detect and eliminate the F and HFICs with internal defects that could lead to device failure in normal application. Other acceptance criteria may be agreed upon with the purchaser or supplier. 1.2 Sequen
17、ce of inspections The order in which inspections are presented is not a required order of examination and may be varied at the discretion of the manufacturer. Any aspect which may be obscured by a subsequent assembly process shall be examined before that process. 1.3 Inspection apparatus The apparat
18、us for this test shall include optical equipment capable of the specified magnification(s) and any visual standard (gauges, drawings, photographs, etc.) necessary to perform an effective examination and enable the operator to make objective decisions as to the acceptability of the device being exami
19、ned. Adequate fixtures shall be provided for handling devices during examination to promote efficient operation without inflicting damage to the units. 1.4 Inspection environment Under consideration. 1.5 Magnification “High magnification”(100 to200) inspection is normally performed with a microscope
20、 perpendicular to the relevant surface with the device under illumination. “Low magnification”(10 to100) inspection is normally performed with a monocular, a binocular or a stereomicroscope at an appropriate angle and illumination. 1.6 Definitions For the purposes of this section of IEC748-20, the f

23、al or intended position within the microcircuit package. Foreign material that appears opaque under those conditions of lighting and magnification used in routine visual inspection is considered as conductive 1.6.5 protective layer (passivation) layer of insulating material that protects part or all
24、 of the substrate area, including metallization, but excluding connecting pads, for example glassivation, solder resist, etc. 1.6.6 isolating layer layer used to isolate separate conductive or resistive levels 1.6.7 kerf slit or cut made by a material-removing process (forexample laser or abrasive t

This does not require confirmation by any other method of testing. 1.8 Alternative test methods Visual examination requirements given below are not necessarily the only methods which can be used. However, the manufacturer should satisfy the National Authorized Institution (NAI) that any alte
30、rnative method will give equivalent assurance, otherwise the specified method is to be used. 2 Substrate and processes Low magnification 2.1 Substrate No device shall be acceptable that shows the following: holes through the substrate, except through lead holes, used or unused component mounting hol
