TM.6  | 
Pad without UBM layers is not allowed except the Pad under PROBE_MK marking.  | 
Not allowed  | 
TM.7  | 
Shape of the Pad shall be at least octagonal (or more closer to circular) except the Pad under PROBE_MK marking.  | 
DRC check  | 
TM.8  | 
Space from edge of top via to the edge of UBM opening  |

TM.9  | 
Partially overlap of top via with passivation opening is not allowed  | 
DRC check  | 
TM.10  | 
Space from edge of top via to the edge of passivation opening  |

Note
* Use tolerance of 0.2um for DRC check.
