Notes

(1) A microcircuit is defined as follows: A small circuit having a high equivalent circuit element density, which is considered as a single part composed of interconnected elements placed and/or formed on or within a single substrate to perform an electronic circuit function. The elements may be on or within a semiconductor material substrate; may consist of conductive film(s) formed on an insulating substrate; or may be a combination of one or both of these types with discrete elements. (2) The term "microcircuit", as applied to circuit devices included in this class, is delimited to exclude items consisting solely of interconnected "microcomponents" (discrete miniaturized components). Also excluded are items fabricated in the form of monolithic thick-film or thin-film structures that in themselves are not functional electronic circuits (e.g., capacitors, resistors, transistors, or "arrays" thereof).
