IEC TS 62668-1:2014 ED2

Process management for avionics - Counterfeit prevention - Part 1: Avoiding the use of counterfeit, fraudulent and recycled electronic components

Scope

IEC TS 62668-1:2014(en) defines requirements for avoiding the use of counterfeit, recycled and fraudulent components used in the aerospace, defence and high performance (ADHP) industries. It also defines requirements for ADHP industries to maintain their intellectual property for all of their products and services. The risks associated with purchasing components outside of franchised distributor networks are considered in IEC TS 62668-2. Although developed for the avionics industry, this specification may be applied by other high performance and high reliability industries at their discretion. This new edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
- update of "fraudulent component" definition, addition of "recycled component" and "suspect component" definitions, and update of the concerned clauses accordingly;
- addition of counterfeit awareness training as a requirement;
- revision to update all references and web links in the annexes.
