Abstract
Counterfeit electronic parts pose a significant risk to performance, reliability, and safety. There is concern about this situation in the aerospace industry and now standards are in place to address this problem. One of many standards intended to be used by buyers of electronic components is AS5553 "Counterfeit Electronic Parts: Avoidance, Detection, Mitigation and Disposition". The standard was developed by members from the US Government, Military, and Commercial Aerospace Companies. This presentation will give the attendee an understanding of the Counterfeit Electronic Parts standards, the certification scheme in place for AS5553 and other standards, and how the standards link with the ISO & AS9100 series of standards.
