Top Mark Definition

Top mark refers to the device identification mark found on Fairchild semiconductor packages
Top mark is used for determining whether a product is genuine and whether it matches your order
Certain top marks refer to manufacturing date and assembly plant, and their values are dynamic
This search tool uses symbols, e.g. &Y, to stand for dynamic top marks
In search results, static marks are displayed in plain text, while dynamic marks are displayed in bold font with short descriptive text in parenthesis as link to help webpage
Please check symbol list below for more details on dynamic top marks
