What is BS QC 760100 - Assessing the quality of integrated circuits about? 
Integrated circuits are globally popular in most electronic devices like automobiles, watches, microwave ovens, computers, televisions, traffic lights etc.
BS QC 760100 applies to film integrated circuits and hybrid film integrated circuits, manufactured as catalogue circuits or as custom-built circuits whose quality is assessed based on qualification approval.
The object of BS QC 760100 is to present preferred values for ratings and characteristics, to select from the generic specification the appropriate tests and measuring methods and to give general performance requirements to be used in detailed specifications for film integrated circuits and hybrid film integrated circuits derived from BS QC 760100 itself.
Who is BS QC 760100 - Assessing the quality of integrated circuits for? 
BS EN BS QC 760100 on assessing the quality of integrated circuits is useful for: 
- Manufacturer of electronic equipment and components
- Manufacturer of electrical equipment and components
- Maintenance and augmentation teams  
- Companies associated with designing and installation of electronic devices 
- Fault management teams
- Quality management teams
Why should you use BS QC 760100 - Assessing the quality of integrated circuits?
Integrated circuits are fundamental building blocks of modern electronic devices. They function as oscillators, timers, computer memory, amplifiers, microcontroller, microprocessors, counters, or logic gates. There are certain specifications regarding the performance of these semiconductor devices.
The concept of preferred values is directly applicable to catalogue circuits but does not necessarily apply to custom-built circuits. Test severities and requirements prescribed in detail specifications referring to BS QC 760100 are of equal or higher performance level because lower performance levels are not permitted.
One or more blank detail specifications are associated with BS QC 760100, each referenced by an IEC number. A blank detail specification which has been completed as specified in 2.3 of BS QC 760100 forms a detail specification. Such detailed specifications are used for the granting of qualification approval of film integrated circuits and hybrid film integrated circuits and quality conformance inspection in accordance with the IECQ system.
BS QC 760100 guides you with two alternative test procedures: method A or method B for quality assessment of different integrated circuits. However, it is not permitted to change the methods between tests of methods A, respectively B. In general, method A is more suitable for passive-component based film integrated circuits, whereas method B is more applicable to semiconductor integrated circuit technology-based film integrated circuits.
The guidelines in BS QC 760100 help you assess the quality of integrated circuits that enables you to provide a superior quality product to your end-users.
