Is this part Counterfeit?

Anne Poncheri [Resion]

Tuesday, June 27th - 3:15 pm

Abstract:

Every day, Quality Inspectors and Managers make decisions on whether the parts that they are inspecting are counterfeit or not. After making these decisions, the component engineer or program manager must review their test reports and make the same call. Both IDEA-STD-1010B and AS6171 are excellent standards that provide pass/fail criteria for counterfeit detection inspections and tests. Due to the type of defects found in counterfeit parts, these decisions are not always black and white. Some of the defect criteria in industry standards could be due to age-related defects, manufacturing defects, or quality issues. This presentation will discuss several examples of when the parts fail the industry standards but may not actually be counterfeit. Multiple examples will be presented which will include discussions of (1) age-related issues of the part (tarnished leads, extra flash on the plastic, poor marking); (2) flipped lead frames, multiple lead frame designs within the same date/lot code; (3) heated solvents failures and other defects found when performing counterfeit detection testing.
