Quality & compliance

Evidence before the decision.

Quality, laboratory and compliance context for semiconductor and electronic-component sourcing programs.

Quality is a process

See the work behind a confident sourcing decision.

Component quality is not a single visual check. It is a connected process of controlled handling, documented inspection, appropriate testing and useful reporting.

Traceable review People and process Evidence-led response
Component inspection / laboratory environment
Standards and controls

Build the requirement around the level of evidence it needs.

Use the relevant quality, compliance and laboratory references to define what should be checked, documented and confirmed for the program.

AS9120 / AS9120B

Distribution quality systems

A structured quality-management framework for distributors serving demanding manufacturing, aerospace, defense and industrial programs.

AS6081

Anti-counterfeit controls

A practical reference for avoiding, detecting, mitigating and documenting counterfeit electronic-component risk.

ANSI/ESD S20.20

Electrostatic discharge control

Controls and handling practices that help protect sensitive devices from ESD damage throughout inspection and movement.

ISO/IEC 17025

Laboratory competence

A laboratory-quality reference covering methods, equipment, personnel competence, calibration and reliable test results.

ISO 9001

Quality management principles

A foundation for controlled processes, documented decisions, corrective action and continual improvement.

Inspection evidence / collaborative review
Engineering lab context

When the part needs more than a photograph.

Inspection programs can combine visual review, measurement, material analysis, radiological inspection, electrical testing and physical analysis. The right mix depends on the device, risk, application and evidence required.

Controlled handling and inspection planning Multi-point reporting with clear exceptions Methods matched to the component and use case Condition, packaging and traceability in view
Ask about a review plan
Testing capabilities

Technical methods that turn uncertainty into usable context.

Methods and reporting can be scoped around the component, the program and the decision that has to follow.

Visual and marking inspection

High-magnification review of package condition, markings, date codes, lot codes, surface finish and evidence of alteration.

Dimensional analysis

Precision measurement of package dimensions, lead geometry and physical characteristics against the required reference.

Material analysis

Non-destructive XRF and laser-based material analysis can help evaluate composition and surface evidence.

Radiological inspection

Internal construction review can identify anomalies such as broken bond wires, die irregularities or unexpected structures.

Electrical testing

Electrical parameter checks, precision measurement and voltage-withstand testing can be scoped to the device and requirement.

Physical and solderability review

Controlled physical, marking, resurfacing and solderability methods help document condition before a sourcing decision.

High-magnification component inspection
Operational flow

Clear handoffs from requirement to report.

A documented process gives engineering and procurement teams a shared view of what was requested, what was reviewed and what still needs confirmation.

01

Receive the requirement

Capture the part number, quantity, condition, date-code, destination and evidence requirements.

02

Define the review

Match the component and risk profile to an appropriate inspection plan, reference standard and sampling approach.

03

Inspect and test

Use documented methods, calibrated equipment and controlled handling to collect evidence.

04

Report the result

Return clear observations, measurements, images and exceptions so the next decision is easier to make.
