The second alignment mark has a second portion (a second starting point portion or a second center of gravity portion). Condition B: The first alignment mark has the first portion, and the second alignment mark does not have the second portion, or the first alignment mark does not have the first portion, and the second alignment mark does not have the second portion.

In the invention described, a method of creating a unique tag or labeling system for electronic printed circuit board assemblies (PCBA) that is unique, virtually un-duplicatable, and may be altered when the electronics are tampered with.

A method for manufacturing an integrated multilayer structure includes obtaining a substrate film having first and second sides, providing at least on the first side one or more first functional features, arranging at least one layer upon at least the first side; removing, at least a portion of the substrate film so that space is released in the structure wherein a detachment-enhancing feature provided to the substrate film is configured to facilitate the removal of the at least a portion of the substrate film such that the adjacent remaining film material, if any, the arranged layer and the one or more first functional features are preserved and preferably remain substantially intact; and providing at least one second functional feature into the space released for use so that the at least one second functional feature operatively connects with at least one of the one or more first functional features.

A ceramic green sheet including a plurality of substrate forming regions. A barcode or a two-dimensional code is drawn in a portion of the ceramic green sheet. The barcode or the two-dimensional code is obtained by encoding one or more of the following information. Information relating to raw materials used when the ceramic green sheet is produced, information relating to molding conditions of the ceramic green sheet, information relating to a release agent used when a plurality of the ceramic green sheets are stacked, or a serial number.

The panel terminals include panel terminals arranged in a first region and panel terminals arranged in second regions sandwiching the first region. The first substrate terminals include first substrate terminals arranged in a third region and first substrate terminals arranged in fourth regions sandwiching the third region. A gap between panel terminals is substantially constant in the first and second regions. A first width of the panel terminals in the first region is different from a second width of the panel terminals is the second regions. A width of the first substrate terminals is substantially constant in the third and fourth regions. A first gap between first substrate terminals in the third region is different from a second gap between first substrate terminals in the fourth regions.

A method for producing a labeled printed circuit board, as well as a labeled electric printed circuit board. In order to provide a method for producing a labeled printed circuit board that is particularly fast and energy-conserving and does not require any systems with high procurement and operating costs, initially a substrate with conductor tracks is supplied, which is then coated with a functional lacquer layer on at least one surface. A labeling of the substrate in different color shades of the functional lacquer layer is also carried out.
