Anti-CounterfeitProgram
The Micross AdvantageMicross Components is a combination of business units that cross into different supplier definitions. We are an authorized distributor of semiconductor die products; a customer-driven independent procurement agent; an aftermarket manufacturer of packaged integrated circuits; an OCM (Original Component Manufacturer) of packaged integrated circuits; and a service based component modification vendor. In addition, we have captive electrical testing, burn-in, DPA lab, and fully DLA lab-suitable MIL-STD environmental screening capabilities all in-house and under our full control. Micross Components is uniquely positioned to take a trusted role in your semiconductor supply chain and provide a counterfeit-free procurement experience.
To satisfy quality system requirements for these business units, Micross Components maintains AS9100 Rev. C registration, MIL-PRF-38535 QML Certification for full Class Q and assembly of Class V, MIL-PRF-38534 for full class H and MIL-STD-883 Commercial Laboratory Suitability. We also meet JESD-31 and the rigorous requirements of our authorized suppliers and high-reliability customers including those in the military, space, medical, and other demanding industries.
Addtionally, our DNA marking services ensure compliance with the U.S. Department of Defense’s Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) regulations requiring direct DLA contractors to mark electronic components deemed high-risk for counterfeiting with botanically-generated Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) by Applied DNA Sciences (ADNAS) or its authorized licensees.
Throughout our 35-plus year history of providing authentic high reliability products, we’ve developed an extensive library of electrical testing software. By testing everything from diodes to microprocessors, we’ve gathered the experience necessary to detect anomalies in performance that may be related to the pedigree of the components. Our core business of bare die distribution has provided us with a valuable education in product identification from these building blocks. The skills we’ve developed over the years is handling bare die has enabled us to be a trusted partner with our silicon suppliers.
Our broad scope, certifications and experience give our customers the confidence to put their trust in Micross Components.

Anti-Counterfeit Program
Validation Protocols
Micross Components has four levels
of product that can be provided to
our customers.
Level 1 Secure Chain –
Documentation review, device verification against
OCM specifications and visual integrity inspection.
Level 2 Aged Chain – Documentation review, device
verification against OCM specifications and visual
integrity inspection; written customer acceptance.
Note: The following two levels do not apply to
product produced at our Hatfield, PA facility.
Level 3 Questionable Chain – Documentation review,
broker counterfeit warranty, device verification
against OCM specifications and visual integrity
inspection; lot traceability evaluation with OCM;
written customer authorization is required to
purchase and supply.
Level 4 Unknown Chain – Documentation review, broker
counterfeit warranty, detailed device verification
against OCM specifications and visual integrity
inspection; lot traceability evaluation with OCM and
lot sample testing; written customer authorization is
required to purchase and supply.
It has always been, and will continue to be, Micross’ policy to
provide all customers with authentic, non-counterfeit products
direct from an OCM’s authorized route. This policy gives way
to just one consideration: meeting the needs of customers for
whom no approved route is available. In those rare instances,
Micross will attempt to procure and validate products
from alternative sources, but only upon the prior written
authorization of the customer. Otherwise, our policy prevails
and we will not provide anything outside of our suppliers’
authorized distribution channels.
Micross Components Authentic Material Policy
It is the policy of Micross Components to always be forthright
regarding the pedigree of products supplied. We have
consistently maintained authorized channels with the best
OCMs (Original Component Manufacturers) worldwide. In
support of the customer, we have also purchased product from
our OCMs’ authorized outlets when necessary. Occasionally,
when directed by a customer, we have purchased product
from the gray market. Whenever the chain of custody is
questionable, the customer is made fully aware of the status
and must accept it in writing prior to purchase and/or release
of the product.
Today’s environment requires an educated customer and
a reliable source of authentic product. To that end, we have
documented this policy to provide an open view into the
Micross Components product validation program.

Counterfeit Device Validation Protocol
As presented in the Micross Components Authentic Material Policy, an unbroken chain of documentation (certifications, packing slips, etc.) tracing the parts back to the OCM is maintained. If we are directed by the customer to explore unauthorized sources, material is then put through a heightened level of scrutiny and, if appropriate, we will perform additional testing based on our experience, military specifications and AS5553. This evaluation may be offered as a service to existing customers.
Incoming Documentation Review
All Certificates of Compliance and packing slips are reviewed for applicability and consistency to the delivered material. Items checked include:
• Lot and/or date codes on packaging are consistent with lot and/or date codes on parts and containers (waffle pack, wafer jar, etc.).
• Labeling on boxes and packing slips match previous documents received from the OCM.
• No evidence of alterations or changes to the document-ation; proper grammar and spelling are evident.
• Bar code data matches human readable data.
• Package materials are consistent with previous OCM shipments and appropriate for the product type.
If there is an elevated concern for product integrity, the OCM will be contacted in an attempt to validate the product traceability data.
