1. Each SMD line item should be on a single continuous tape (a minimum of 12" long cut tape/reel/mini-reel). If not placed on a tape or reel, they must be on trays or tubes.

2. When shipping multiple work orders in one box, each work order must be individually packaged with its own set of components.

3. Each item should have an additional quantity of components for attrition during assembly. Refer to the following specifications:

• Discrete SMT passives:
  • 01005 size: Additional 50% attrition required with a minimum quantity of 150 pieces in a tape/reel/mini-reel.
    • Extra components should be greater than 150 pcs or 50% of the required quantity.
      
      E.g. For 01005 size components, if required Qty = 70, 50% extra = 35, min Qty = 150. Total quantity required = 70 + max (35,150) = 70 + 150 = 220.
  
  
  • 0201 size: Additional 50% attrition required with a minimum quantity of 150 pieces in a tape/reel/mini-reel.
  
  
  • 0402 size: Additional 25% attrition required with a minimum qty of 150 pieces in a tape/reel/mini-reel.
  • 0603 size: Additional 15% attrition required with a minimum qty of 75 pieces in a tape/reel/mini-reel.
  • 0805 size: Additional 10% attrition required with a minimum of 75 pieces in a tape/reel/mini-reel.
  • 1206 size or larger: Additional 10% attrition required with a minimum of 75 pieces in a tape/reel/mini-reel.
• Active Devices:
  • Component Width 0.6mm or smaller: 20% extra subject to a minimum of 20 extra
    • Extra components should be greater of 20 or 20% of the required Quantity
  • Component Width 0.6 - 1mm: 10% extra - subject to a minimum of 10 extra
    • Extra components should be greater of 10 or 10% of the required Quantity
  • Component Width 1 - 1.6mm: 10% extra subject to a minimum of 5 extra
    • Extra components should be greater of 5 or 10% of the required Quantity
  • Component Width 1.6 - 2mm: 5% extra subject to a minimum of 5 extra
    • Extra components should be greater of 5 or 5% of the required Quantity
  • Component Width Larger than 2mm: 5% extra subject to a minimum of 2 extra
    • Extra components should be greater of 2 or 5% of the required Quantity

3. All Thru-hole (DIP) ICs must be supplied in trays or tubes or continuous tapes


• Thru-Hole devices:
  • Small Devices: 5% extra subject to a minimum of 2 extra
    • Extra components should be greater of 2 or 5% of the required Quantity
  • Other Devices: 2% extra subject to a minimum of 1 extra
    • Extra components should be greater of 1 or 2% of the required Quantity
• Hardware (screws, nuts, washers, etc.):
  • Hardware costing less than $.50: 10% extra subject to a minimum of 5 extra
  • Hardware costing $.50 - $2.00: 5% extra subject to a minimum of 2 extra
  • Hardware costing more than $2.00: 2% extra subject to a minimum of 1 extra
  
  
  

4. Insufficient attrition will be construed as parts shortage.
5. All consigned parts must be shipped to us in a properly kitted form (each line item of BOM in a separate bag, properly marked for identifying the component unambiguously).
6. Kits for multiple jobs must be in separate bags identified by appropriate assembly order number.
7. All parts must be shipped to 1980 Lundy Ave. San Jose, CA 95131. Components must be received by 1:00 PM PST. Work will begin the following day for any board received after the cut-off time.
8. All shipments must include Order Number or Quote Number.

*All extra components subject to an additional minimum fee.
