This video demonstrates the process which AERI utilizes to inspect the internal characteristics of hard-to-find electronics. Complex equipment like X-ray, XRF and decapsulation are used to decipher what elements the parts are made of and what is inside. This is a critical step in the detection of substandard and counterfeit electronic components for high reliability, aerospace, and, military applications.

Robb Hammond is the founder and CEO of AERI, an independent electronic component distributor operating since 1994. He is a founding member and former committee chair of SAE AS6081, the counterfeit-avoidance standard for independent distributors adopted by the U.S. Department of Defense, and a recognized authority on counterfeit detection.
