ABI Electronics’ SENTRY is an easy-to-use tester aimed at goods inwards inspectors and designed to measure the unique electrical signature (PinPrint) of components. The information collected is managed through a database and is used to compare known good devices against suspect components.
Typically, the system can easily detect missing or incorrect dies, lack of bond wires, inaccurate pinouts and pin impedance variations. Simple pass or fail results are returned after testing, offering a high level of confidence in the authenticity of components.
SENTRY does not require any knowledge of electronics to use efficiently. For in-depth analysis though, PinPrints can be reviewed and full reports can be generated. The associated software also offers options for customisation and the ability to store essential documentation such as photos, PDF datasheets, web pages and images.
The tester is able to accommodate virtually all types of components, from simple two-pin devices to more complex packages such as BGA. A range of standard and universal adaptors is available, and custom designs can also be supplied.
In order to ensure consistency throughout the whole supply chain, SENTRY is designed to support data sharing. This means that the PinPrints of a given component can be shared between users, from the OEM through to the distributor and end user.
