Quality Management

Quality is of paramount importance for SILICA's Programming Services. The Avnet Logistics Programming Centre is fully certified according to ISO 9001, TS16949, ISO14001, EN61340-5-1&2, JESD 625, ANSI ESD S20.20 and J-STD 033. 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.
