  • Dear Su Zhang,

    Please verify.

    Manuel

  • Hey Manuel-

    I have been discussing this with A/T site and here are some questions/ feedback: 

    1. For the 24 PCs showing oxidation, did customer only find 24 PCs showing discoloration from one reel or you only received 24 PCs? 

    2. Were the other batches customer received earlier partial reels they kept in the storage room? 

    3. Did the oxidation only happen on the open pocket hole, any other oxidation observed on the lead or other area on the power pad?

    From A/T's experience, they suspected this is related to the customer's environment, but you can contact local FQE and return the affected material to investigate further if needed. 

    Thanks,

    Su

  • Dear Su,

    Thanks for the coordination.

    Noted return of  the affected material to investigate further if needed.

     

    To answer 1~3 above, our remaining stock was also verified for the same condition.

    We have not opened the carrier tape, just peek through the visible portion

    at the bottom of the carrier tape that the bottom portion already got discolored
