Claims
- 1. A tape carrier comprising an insulating film, a pattern formed of a metal foil on at least one side surface of said film, a polyimide resin-based overcoat and an adhesive resin overcoat, said adhesive resin overcoat being made of a resinous material other than the resinous material of said polyimide resin-based overcoat, said adhesive resin overcoat being applied to a pattern surface portion around the periphery of a portion coated with an IC sealing resin, said polyimide resin-based overcoat being applied to the remaining pattern surface portion, said adhesive resin overcoat extending over said pattern surface portion, said polyimide resin-based overcoat having an area, said adhesive resin overcoat having an area, the area of said adhesive resin overcoat being smaller than the area of said polyimide resin-based overcoat whereby warping of said tape carrier is minimized.
- 2. The tape carrier according to claim 1, wherein said tape carrier further comprises an additional overcoat which is made of an overcoat resin capable of repelling the IC sealing resin and is applied around the periphery of said portion coated with said adhesive resin overcoat.
- 3. The tape carrier according to claim 1, wherein said adhesive resin overcoat has a high strength of adhesion to the IC sealing resin.
- 4. The tape carrier according to claim 1, wherein said insulating film is a polyimide resin-based insulating film.
- 5. The tape carrier according to claim 1, wherein said adhesive resin overcoat is made of a resin which is a member selected from the group consisting of an epoxy resin-based overcoat, an epoxy-acrylate resin-based overcoat, a melamine resin-based overcoat and an alkyd resin-based overcoat.
- 6. The tape carrier according to claim 1, wherein said adhesive resin overcoat 4b is further applied to an insulating film surface portion around the periphery of a portion coated with the IC sealing resin, said insulating film surface has a side, said pattern surface has a side, the side of said insulating film surface being opposite to said pattern surface.
- 7. The tape carrier according to claim 6, wherein said polyimide resin-based overcoat is further applied to the insulating film surface portion except for that around the periphery of the portion coated with the IC sealing resin, said insulating film surface has a side, said pattern surface has a side, the side of said insulating film surface being opposite to said pattern surface.
- 8. A tape carrier comprising an insulating film, a pattern formed of a metal foil on at least one side surface of said film, a polyimide resin-based overcoat and an adhesive resin overcoat, said adhesive resin overcoat being made of a resinous material other than the resinous material of the polyimide resin-based overcoat, said polyimide resin-based overcoat being applied to a pattern surface portion except for that around the periphery of a portion coated with an IC sealing resin, said adhesive resin overcoat being applied around the periphery of an area coated with the polyimide resin-based overcoat, said adhesive resin overcoat extending over said pattern surface portion, said polyimide resin-based overcoat having an area, said adhesive resin overcoat having an area the area of said adhesive resin overcoat being smaller than the area of said polyimide resin-based overcoat whereby warping of said tape carrier is minimized and the adhesiveness of said resin overcoat to the IC sealing resin is enhanced.
- 9. The tape carrier according to claim 8, wherein said adhesive resin overcoat is further applied to the pattern surface portion around the periphery of the portion coated with the IC sealing resin.
- 10. The tape carrier according to claim 9, wherein said tape carrier further comprises an additional overcoat which is made of an overcoat resin capable of repelling the IC sealing resin and is applied around the periphery of the portion coated with the adhesive resin overcoat.
- 11. The tape carrier according to claim 8, wherein said adhesive resin overcoat has a high strength of adhesion to the pattern formed of the metal foil.
- 12. The tape carrier according to claim 8, wherein said insulating film is a polyimide resin-based insulating film.
- 13. The tape carrier according to claim 8, wherein said adhesive resin overcoat is made of a resin which is a member selected from the group consisting of an epoxy resin-based overcoat, an epoxy-acrylate resin-based overcoat, a melamine resin-based overcoat and an alkyd resin-based overcoat.
- 14. The tape carrier according to claim 8, wherein said adhesive resin overcoat 4b is further applied to an insulating film surface portion around the periphery of said portion coated with the IC sealing resin, said insulating film surface has a side, said pattern surface has a side, the side of the insulating film surface being opposite to said pattern surface.
- 15. The tape carrier according to claim 14, wherein said polyimide resin-based overcoat is further applied to the insulating film surface portion except for that around the periphery of said portion coated with the IC sealing resin, said insulating film surface has a side, said pattern surface has a side, the side of the said insulating film surface being opposite to said pattern surface.
