Finding the parts you need is the critical first step in fulfilling your manufacturing requirements. Assuring that the parts arrive as promised, without defect, ready to drive your product in the marketplace is a critical next step that Chip Partners takes very seriously. That's why we have created ChipAssure, our comprehensive testing and validation program.
We know there are counterfeit CPUs and Chipsets being bought and sold on the market every day. Those kinds of parts do not find their way into our customers’ products. That's because the majority of the parts we source are factory sealed with integrity intact. And every part that is not factory sealed is rigorously tested. No one else offers our comprehensive Zero Failures protocols that include:
- Complete microscopic visual examination- a comprehensive visual test that verifies the integrity of the package, leads, pins, solder balls and substrate
- Marking permanency test- verifies the identity of the part
- Sample decapsulation- all parts that are received in a non-factory sealed condition will have a sample decapsulated to verify that the chip id# matches the part number
- Additional testing- available both at Chip Partners and our third party test companies per customer’s requirements
With such an emphasis on testing, we are able to spot parts that have been tampered with, damaged, or even worse, counterfeit parts...all long before they arrive to you.
Take advantage of ChipAssure and costly product failures in the field due to faulty components will be cut dramatically.
