Government agencies have generally accepted that this is a COTS (Commercial, Off-The-Shelf ) equivalent to MIL-PRF-31032. Please see the IPC position paper which is available for download at IPC.org or Minco.com. If your circuit must meet performance requirements of MIL-P-50884, MIL-PRF-31032 or IPC-6013, we urge you to read the IPC-2223 design specification for flexible circuits and follow its recommendations.
