Barricade provides fast, nondestructive authentication of electronics components. Is comprised of electronics component signal acquisition hardware and software. Validation process involves placing IC into a chip socket to receive confirmation of authenticity or detection of counterfeit or cloned components within seconds. Works on analog and digital devices. Determines authenticity based on electrical signatures and a classification algorithm that generates identity signatures for each class of chips in a given class of authentic devices. Requires only a few authentic chips to enroll an entire class of chips.

UVCL UV cure conformal coating is VOC-free and for high-volume use. Is said to cure within seconds upon exposure to UV light and within 48 hr. in shadowed areas. Features storage stability and long shelf life. Is low viscosity, for application of relatively thin films without need for dilution, and provides moisture and chemical resistance. Is nonflammable, fluoresces under UV light for ease of inspection, and offers electrical properties with a wide operating temperature range. Adaptable for different processes and resistant to common thermal shock cycling, moisture vapor, salt-spray, solvent and fluid exposure, and condensing environments. Meets IPC-CC-830 requirements and is UL94 V-0 rated.

AFA (Aromatic Free) conformal coatings are said to reduce operational hazards for operators due to Toluene and Xylene-free formulation. Consists of AFA, AFA-F, formulated for use in non-atomized film-coat applicators, and AFA-S, for use in atomized spray applicators and HVLP spray guns. Transparent AFA coating is for LED applications, providing clarity and UV resistance, and protection in humid and salt-mist environments, as well as ensuring efficient coating application with a fast touch dry time at room temperature. Is UL approved, meets UL94 V-0. Features UV trace to aid inspection and is reworkable.

DC100 digital precision dispenser adds programmable features, giving more functionality and control over dispensing applications. Alarms can be set to notify when material life has ended or fluctuations in dispensing pressure have occurred. Auto purge function prevents premature curing of material when dispenser is not in operation. Air output and vacuum are now digitally displayed and can be set with tolerances. Can save up to 10 programs; provides five different dispensing modes. Has an I/O connection and lockable programs.
