IEC System for IEC Quality Assessment System For Electronic Components
What is IECQ
IECQ (IEC Quality Assessment System for Electronic Components) is a worldwide approval and certification system that covers the supply, assembly, associated materials and processes of a large variety of electronic components that are used in millions of devices and systems.
The IECQ Certification System provides manufacturers with independent verification that IEC International Standards and other specifications were met by suppliers who hold an IECQ certification.
16
IECQ Helping Industry
The IECQ is about assurance and cost-cutting. Electrical and electronic products comprise many, sometimes hundreds of individual components and sub-assemblies. The well-known brand manufacturers and their
purchasing managers want to be assured that the electronic components used in their products are of the required quality and reliability. To minimize incoming inspection costs and
eliminates the quality auditing of suppliers, they can chose components suppliers who hold IECQ product certifications for their components.

• Electronics are the second most counterfeited industry
• Industry needs to avoid and detect fraudulent or counterfeit electrical / electronic parts entering the aerospace, avionics, military, telecommunications, biomedical, automotive, railway and high tech consumer electronics supply chain.
61
IECQ Approved Process – CAP “Counterfeit Avoidance Programme”
• Over the past decade plus there has been a significant and increasing volume of fraudulent or counterfeit electrical / electronic parts entering the aerospace, avionics, military, telecommunications, biomedical, automotive, railway and high tech consumer electronics supply chain, posing significant performance, reliability and safety risks.
62
IECQ Approved Process – CAP “Counterfeit Avoidance Programme”
IECQ Approved Process – CAP “Counterfeit Avoidance Programme”
• It is a fact that counterfeit electronic components can be dangerous due to the fact that they may use cheap raw material, may have poor assembly, may be used, may lack original manufacturer’s die, and/or third party testing and qualification.
• Counterfeit electronic components include used electronic components removed from discarded electrical devices as part of e-waste products and then cleaned, re-labeled and presented to the market as new.
63
• This use of electronic components removed from discarded electrical devices takes place in uncontrolled environments. It uses methods that are likely to result in either the destruction or degradation of the electronic components and it leaves little assurance of the electronic components’ compliance with the specification provided by the original component manufacturer.
64
IECQ Approved Process – CAP “Counterfeit Avoidance Programme”
• Cost USD 600 billion/year
• Negatively impact brands/ cause huge liability
• Social costs of injuries/death from low-quality products
• Lost jobs
• Organized crime
65
IECQ Approved Process – CAP “Counterfeit Avoidance Programme”
• Counterfeit electrical products can generate significant safety hazards and, left undetected, can cause deaths, injuries and substantial property loss. In the aerospace industry, the safety repercussions such as the loss of performance or reliability could have catastrophic consequences.
66
IECQ Approved Process – CAP “Counterfeit Avoidance Programme”
• As a result, the aerospace, avionics and military industry are collectively addressing this in various forums including its work with international standards committees in developing new standards.
67
IECQ Approved Process – CAP “Counterfeit Avoidance Programme”
• IEC/TS 62668-1 • Counterfeit prevention - Part 1: Avoiding the use of counterfeit,
fraudulent and recycled electronic components
• SAE AS 5553A • Counterfeit Electronic Parts; Avoidance, Detection, Mitigation,
and Disposition
• SAE AS 6081 • Counterfeit Electronic Parts for Distributors
