IEC 60286-3:2007

Packaging of components for automatic handling - Part 3: Packaging of surface mount components on continuous tapes

IEC 60286-3:2007 is applicable to the tape packaging of electronic components without leads or with lead stumps which are intended to be connected to electronic circuits. It includes only those dimensions that are essential for the taping of components intended for the above-mentioned purposes. This fourth edition cancels and replaces the third edition issued in 1997. It constitutes a technical revision. It contains the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) implementation of Type IV (adhesive-backed punched plastic carrier tape for singulated bare die and other surface mount components);
b) minor revisions related to tables, figures and references.

Emballage de composants pour opérations automatisées - Partie 3: Emballage des composants appropriés au montage en surface en bandes continues

La CEI 60286-3:2007 est applicable à la mise en bande des composants électroniques sans fils de sortie ou avec tronçons de sortie destinés à être connectés à des circuits électroniques. Elle fournit uniquement les dimensions essentielles pour la mise sur bande de composants destinés aux opérations mentionnées ci-dessus. Cette quatrième édition annule et remplace la troisième édition publiée en 1997 dont elle constitue une révision technique. Elle contient les importantes modifications techniques suivantes par rapport à la précédente édition:
a) mise en oeuvre du Type IV (bande d'entraînement perforée en plastique avec adhésif au dos pour puce nue isolée et autres composants pour montage en surface);
b) révisions mineures des tableaux, valeurs et références.

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 provides no marking procedure to indicate its approval and cannot be rendered responsible for any
equipment declared to be in conformity with an IEC Publication.
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
