Cage Code: 1ULP6
DDTC: K-4341
Active GIDEP Membership
(Government-Industry Data Exchange Program) The objective of GIDEP is to improve
the availability of information for the total quality management of mission critical material. This goal includes:
Improving reliability, maintainability and cost of ownership.
Reducing or eliminating the use of critical national resources for redundant testing.
Avoiding use of known suspect discontinued parts and materials.
Keeping up with the Industry
• AEE attended the 2012 Association of the
United States Army Winter Symposium in
February, 2012.
• The central focus of the symposium was the
Army’s progression towards transforming while
conducting combat operations. Special emphasis
was devoted to the indispensable role that
industry partners provide to the U.S. Army.
Mission: Advancement of aerospace quality assurance practices. Objectives: • Integrate quality approaches • Standardize quality practices
• Address current problems • Improve use of quality resources • Analyze and mitigate quality risks • Communicate lessons learned
• Share best practices and quality tools • Improve quality processes
Quality Leadership Forum 2012 •AEE attended the NASA 2012 QLF in March & received certifications for counterfeit parts awareness training.
Leadership within the Independent Distribution •In May, 2011
Aerospace Elite
Electronics, Inc.
was recognized
for its exemplary
performance by
Raytheon
Integrated
Defense
Systems.
• In May, 2012 AEE will be recognized with another Four Star Supplier Excellence
Award for its distinguished performance in 2011.
•Raytheon recognizes its suppliers based on three important factors: On time
delivery measures, sustained performance on quality, and commitment to
continuous process and quality improvement.
Counterfeit Mitigation Inspection Process
Inspection and Detection Methods
• Manufacturer datasheets are used during inspection to verify
marking formats, package types, pin 1 location, lead formation,
weight, etc.
• Manufacturer device drawings are used for dimensional
measurement checks.
• Valuable on
on-site resource
library for legacy
and obsolete
product.
Inspection and Detection Methods
Technology is misspelled “Tcchnology”
QTY has an apostrophe between the Q and T
• Manufacturer’s labels
are carefully inspected
and analyzed for
punctuation, spelling
and bar code scan tests.
Bar Code Scanner
Inspection and Detection Methods
Used parts. Heat caused plastic to melt.
Refurbished Leads
Used & damaged device. Package burst.
• Optical microscopy is performed
using digitally enhanced imaging
software enabling our inspectors to
detect nonconformities.
• Photographs are taken at a very
high resolution for a detailed visual
evaluation.
Technical Inspection Equipment Used
• Casio Digital Camera
(Model: EX-Z4)
• Olympus Microscope
(Model: SZ-61)
• Digital Measuring Caliper (Standard)
• All Technical Inspection Equipment is calibrated and inspected regularly.
Lead Cross Sectioning
• For metal can, through hole packages such as
TO- 99, TO-100, TO-8, etc…
• Device leads are cross-sectioned in order to
determine if leads have been extended by welding.

Marking Permanency
AEE checks marking permanency of all parts
received using:
Products appear to be originally marked
1) 3 parts Mineral
Spirits, 1 part
Isopropyl
2) Acetone
3) 1-Methyl
2-Pyyrolidone
4) Dynasolve 750
solutions
Revealing the true condition of the part after removing the painted layer and marking. The part was refurbished, remarked and painted. Deemed as suspect counterfeit product.
Internal Visual / X-Ray
To further evaluate a parts authenticity, AEE uses internal visual inspections for its defect detection and fundamental solder quality verification.
Presence, condition of the die and wire bonds and cracks in epoxy are detectable with X-RAY inspections.
Through this process, AEE is able to identify inconsistent internals, the most common indicator of counterfeit products.
XRF / Solderability / Material
Analysis
• Lead finish composition
• Product Analysis
• Infrared Analysis
• Materials Identification &
Research
• X-Ray
• FTIR
• Scan Electron Material
Breakdown
• Spectra Illustrations
Electrical Testing
Direct Current, Functional, Switching at 25°C,
or as specified in the Technical Data Package,
MIL slash sheet or Manufacturers Data Sheet
as applicable, or other specific tests required
by the purchase order.
Packaging Inspection
• AEE verifies that package marking is consistent with
the OEM marking and that the date/lot code is no later
than the last production date.
• For Qualified Parts List (QPL) parts, AEE verifies
that the manufacturer identified on the package was a
QPL source for the time period represented by the part
date / lot code.
Vendor Screening and Background Checks
All vendors are thoroughly assessed and classified utilizing a stringent vendor investigation form.
Vendors who are reported, sued, and complained against for supplying counterfeit and faulty product is “Do Not Buy”
counterfeit and faulty product is classified as “Do Not Buy” at AEE
Continuous Vendor Monitoring System
• AEE monitors approved vendor performances using our internal vendor profile system.
• Vendors with product nonconformities are degraded to a “Do Not Buy” status prohibiting any product from being acquired from these sources.
Vendor Product Warning
Notice intended to create a vendor awareness and
warning of our thorough incoming inspection process.
This notice persuades our vendors to carefully inspect
and “double check” product at their facility prior to
shipping.
This discourages any attempts to send substandard
product.
AEE encourages vendors to contact our Quality Dept.
for technical assistance who are unsure or unable to
determine the condition of their product.
Inspection Performed by Trained &
Experienced Inspectors
• Inspectors are provided with workshop seminars and onsite training sessions.
• Inspectors are trained to identify and recognize specific aspects of new and authentic component features. By this training method inspectors are able to distinguish unnatural characteristics of a device immediately.
ANSI/ESD S20.20-2007 Certified
• The National
Quality Assurance
organization has
approved AEE for
the ANSI/ESD
S20.20 certification
ESD Controlled Workstations Inspection performed in ESD
controlled workstations with
ESD protected smocks.
Personnel, floors, tables, and
mats are grounded. A continuous
ESD monitoring alarm system
installed for mats and inspectors.
ANSI S20.20 certified
Inspection Guidelines and Documentation
• All incoming product is rigorously inspected for our
customers using the IDEA-1010-STD-A Inspection
Standard.
• Results are documented on our Inspection Report
Form and becomes a Controlled Record.
• AEE keeps a library of photographs for all products.
Reports for Nonconforming Product
Access to Industry Reported Substandard Parts Lists.
This list enables our inspectors to stay alert for specific nonconforming part numbers that are circulating in the market.
Detailed Visual Analysis Report
• Detailed Visual Analysis Reports are provided
by our Quality Manager for questionable and
nonconforming product. This report at no charge
is available to our customers upon request.
Conclusion As a veteran owned stocking distributor our
fight begins with ensuring that our customers
are protected from the threat of suspect
electronic components.
We NEVER purchase components from the
Pacific Rim, and we do not conduct business
with companies that do.
Sustained performance on quality
A commitment to continuous process and
quality improvement.
