December Insights: Ensuring Quality and Reliability in Electronic Components Supply Chain

Key Test Results include:

  • External Visual Inspection (EVI) (25.4%) was the most common test in December. As a cost-effective first line of defense, EVI detects surface anomalies like marking inconsistencies, packaging irregularities, or physical damage.
  • X-Ray Analysis (16.3%): Identifies internal defects, validates bonding integrity, and ensures structural consistency, critical for high-risk applications like aerospace and medical devices.
  • Decapsulation/Die Analysis (16.1%): Delves into internal structures for counterfeit detection and failure analysis.
  • Electrical Performance Testing (14.7%): Verifies functionality, especially crucial for automotive and telecommunications applications.
  • Solderability Testing (9.5%): Addresses concerns about aging inventory and storage conditions affecting component usability.
  • XRF Analysis: Gained traction as a non-destructive method to analyze material composition, ensuring compliance with specifications and detecting potential counterfeits.
