The Computer and Control Chapter (C&C) Presents: Beyond Date Codes – Rethinking Semiconductor Traceability for Reliability and Resilience


In industries where reliability and authenticity are paramount, traditional metrics like the “two-year date code” are no longer sufficient. This Rochester Electronics webinar explores the evolving landscape of semiconductor traceability and its critical role in ensuring long-term reliability, counterfeit mitigation, and supply chain resilience.

As silicon fabrication technology advances, older fab processes are phased out. At the same time, package obsolescence is accelerating, creating sourcing challenges for legacy and long-lifecycle systems. Attendees will gain a deeper understanding of:

Why legacy date code constraints are outdated and how traditional solderability tests may over-reject acceptable aged material.

  • How fully authorized and traceable sources support industries with long product lifecycles
  • Real-world lessons learned from the COVID-19 supply chain disruptions
  • How a long-term storage strategy can ensure a consistent supply chain, long-term component availability, and avoid unnecessary waste.
