Why Automotive NFC Tag Quality Matters in Production
For Tier 1 suppliers, a single defective NFC 태그 can stop a production line, delay JIT delivery, and trigger a recall cost of more than $250,000. Automotive-grade NFC sourcing ensures:
- 100% traceability from wafer to assembly line
- -40°C to 150°C operational reliability (AEC-Q100 tested)
- Zero ESD failures during robotic installation
- Full compliance with IATF 16949:2016 clause 8.5.6
Challenges in automotive NFC sourcing
1️⃣ Batch variation: 12% resistance drift across suppliers (SAE J1211 audit).
2️⃣ Counterfeit risk: 8.3% of components failed AS6081 screening.
3️⃣ Missing documentation: 67% of PPAP rejections are related to incomplete PFMEA.
