Scope

AS5553 provides uniform requirements, practices and methods to mitigate the risk of receiving and installing counterfeit electronic parts.  Of course, no standard can guarantee that counterfeit components will be avoided, but the document does provide a framework for minimizing risk.

Notes

Claudia's Notes:
Originally focused on Aerospace end-product producers, suppliers and processors, the standard has been expanded to address fraudulent/counterfeit risk mitigation on a global scale.  Multi-sector electronic supply chain industries can use this standard, since it provides uniform requirements, practices and methods to alleviate the risks of using fraudulent/counterfeit parts.

The new issue is significantly longer than the original AS 5553 release (43 pages as compared to 33 pages) and has a new title as well.
