New JEDEC Standard Sets Best Practices for Mitigating Counterfeit Electronic Parts
ARLINGTON, Va., USA – MARCH 28, 2016 – JEDEC Solid State Technology Association, the global leader in standards development for the microelectronics industry, today announced the publication of JESD243: Counterfeit Electronic Parts: Non-Proliferation for Manufacturers. This standard identifies the best commercial practices for mitigating and/or avoiding counterfeit products of the following types: monolithic microcircuits, hybrid microcircuits and discrete semiconductor products. JESD243 is available for free download from the JEDEC website.
JESD243 applies to all manufacturers of electronic parts including, but not limited to, original component manufacturers (OCMs), authorized aftermarket manufacturers, and other companies that manufacture electronic parts under their own logo, name, or trademark. The document defines standard requirements for developing both a mitigation policy and a product return policy, including return verification and a prohibition on the restocking of confirmed counterfeit parts.
“The proliferation of counterfeit electronic parts throughout the supply chain has significant financial and safety implications for industry, governments, manufacturers and consumers,” said John Kelly, JEDEC President. He added, “JEDEC is pleased to offer JESD243 as a resource to manufacturers as they seek to stem the tide of counterfeit parts.”
