In the electronics industry, the quality and reliability of any product is highly dependent upon the capabilities of the manufacturing suppliers. Manufacturing defects are one of the top reasons why companies fail to meet warranty expectations. These problems can result in severe financial pain and eventual loss of market share. What a surprising number of engineers and managers fail to realize is that focusing on processes addresses only part of the issue. Supplier selection also plays a critical role in the success or failure of the final product.

Open product reliability testing in Stockholm, Sweden in January as part of a live production event generated some quite startling results. It was apparent that many components simply cannot handle the high reflow temperatures of a lead-free soldering process, and that many surface-mount machine suppliers are battling significant problems with QFN packages and other components that are mounting edgeways (bill boarding). However, some suppliers have achieved good results.

Counterfeiting is growing in exponential proportions with respect to the types of: • Products being counterfeited • Industries affected • Potential consequences caused by counterfeits If this threat is not adequately addressed, counterfeit items have the potential to seriously compromise the safety and operational effectiveness of our products. The objective of this training is to raise awareness of: • The risks and impacts of counterfeit parts infiltrating the supply chain. • Best practices to eliminate or mitigate those risks • Lockheed Martin counterfeit prevention requirements for suppliers

While IC level ESD design and the necessary protection levels are well understood, system ESD protection strategy and design efficiency have only been dealt with in an ad hoc manner. This is most obvious when we realize that a consolidated approach to system level ESD design between system manufacturers and chip suppliers has been rare. This White Paper discusses these issues in the open for the first time, and offers new and relevant insight for the development of efficient system level ESD design.
