XRF: a Powerful Tool for Electronics Quality, Counterfeit Prevention, Compliance

X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF) is a fast and accurate analytical technique that uses x-rays’ interaction with a material to determine its elemental composition. It is a non-destructive test that can be applied to the analysis of solids, liquids and powders. XRF is also the method of choice for determining the thickness and composition of coatings. The challenges of RoHS, counterfeit parts, and new PCB finishes make a compelling case for the adoption of current-day XRF technology.
