Quality Control Procedure

Our quality inspectors are highly skilled in discovering quality flaws and have an array of modern inspection tools at their disposal.The components go through several tests including visual inspections with high magnification microscopes and cameras for document control and physical dimension tests.The visual inspection process continues with enhanced techniques such as marking permanency, product resurfacing or ´black topping´ tests.

Our staff is also trained to follow Specific Instructions given by the customers in certain cases.

Procedure

  • 1. Initial Check

    Our quality inspectors research components and their packaging to ensure the parts have been handled, stored and packaged in manners that are consistent with the industry standards.

  • 2. Specification Conformation

    Should our QC specialists uncover any non-conformance, the product is elevated to the component engineers and they may even recommend involvement from our third-party test facilities to perform a variety of authenticity tests to ensure the product conforms to the component manufacturer specifications.

  • 3. Baking and Vacuum Sealed

    Before the product is packaged and ready to ship to our customers, it is baked for the appropriate amount of time in our state of the art baking oven (in accordance with JEDEC guidelines) and vacuum sealed in ESD bags.

  • 4. Fully Certified Labs

    Our warehouse and Quality Control Laboratory are both ISO and ESD certified.
