The SAE has developed a new standard for using FTIR for counterfeit
electronic part detection.  It is AS6171/9 of SAE AS6171., have passed
ballot and have been sent to SAE Content Management for formatting, prior
to being submitted to Aerospace Council for final approval, and hopefully
the documents will be released later this year.  Once the documents are
published, SAE intent is to publish SAE AS6081 revision A which will
default to the inspection and test requirements of AS6171 with appropriate
slash sheets.  AS6081 applies to open market EEE part distributors (e.g.,
independent distributors, brokers).
