Abstract
A process includes measuring at least one component parameter of a plurality of components with a testing device; and arranging at least a portion of the plurality of components in a sequential order based on the at least one component parameter with an implementation system in at least one of the following: a shipping format and a device implementation of the portion of the plurality of components. A system is disclosed as well.
Claims31
A shipping format comprising:
- a shipping package;
- and
- a plurality of components arranged in the shipping package in a sequential order based on at least one component parameter,
- wherein the at least one component parameter comprises an electrical performance of each of the plurality of components.

A shipping format comprising:
- a shipping package;
- and
- a plurality of components arranged in the shipping package in a sequential order based on at least one component parameter,
- wherein the sequential order of the plurality of components in the shipping package comprises at least one of the following:
- a sequencing from a low value of the at least one component parameter to a high value of the at least one component parameter, a sequencing from a high value of the at least one component parameter to a low value of the at least one component parameter, an Ascending-Descending Sequencing (ADS) where the plurality of components are sequenced alternately ascending or descending between a low value of the at least one component parameter and a high value of the at least one component parameter, a Half-Sine Sequencing (HSS) where the plurality of components are sequenced to start and end with a low value of the at least one component parameter, a Half-Sine Sequencing (HSS) where the plurality of components are sequenced to start and end with a high value of the at least one component parameter, and a Full-Sine Sequencing (FSS) where the plurality of components are sequenced to start and end with a median value of the at least one component parameter.

A shipping format comprising:
- a shipping package;
- and
- a plurality of components arranged in the shipping package in a sequential order based on at least one component parameter,
- wherein a variation of the at least one component parameter between adjacent pairs of the plurality of components arranged in the shipping package is minimized;
- and
- wherein the plurality of components comprise a group of similar electrical components;
- wherein the plurality of components in the shipping package comprise electrical components;
- and
- wherein the at least one component parameter comprises a measured and determined electrical performance of each of the plurality of components.
