Hello All, I work for an aerospace OEM, and I am responsible for putting in the Counterfeit Protection Plan. I'm familiar with the requirements etc., and was wondering if anyone out there has already set one up. If so, did you send your staff out f

Yup, this is pretty scary, all right. I have just used up the last FPGAs of a batch we bought from a Chinese source. Never again! Some of them worked, some didn't, in a variety of nefarious ways. People cautined me about empty packages, etc. Wel
