“SAE International’s G-19 Counterfeit Electronic Components Committee is chartered to address the different aspects of preventing, detecting, responding to, and counteracting the threat of counterfeit electronic components. It does this by developing standards suitable for use in aeronautic, space, defense, civil, and commercial electronic equipment applications to mitigate the risks of counterfeit electronic components.
These standards document recognized best practices in component management, supplier management, procurement, inspection, test/evaluation methods, and response strategies when suspect or confirmed counterfeit components are detected.”
