Services

Quality is of paramount importance for Silica's Programming Service. The Avnet Logistics Programming Centre is fully certified according to CECC, IECQ, ISO 9001:2000, TS16949:2002 and ISO 14001. Equally rigorous quality audits are frequently carried out and approvals provided by the leading semiconductor manufacturers and Silica's major automotive and non-automotive customers.

Avnet Logistics has a FAA (first article approval process) in place during which you are supplied with sample devices along with complete programming documentation. This allows you to test the samples before mass production, which starts only after the samples are approved.

The full production process is fully documented for traceability. The in-process quality inspection is supported by second person checks at crucial production stages, eliminating any possible operator errors. All stages of the production process are performed in an ESD-controlled environment. Additionally, only highly trained, full-time personnel are employed at the Programming Centre.
