Antique CD player control board
| The antique CD player control panel is one of the core components of the antique CD player, which is responsible for controlling the various functions of the CD player. |
Customer requirement
A control board variant for a legacy CD player: typically 2–4 layers, ~240 components, low-volume build. Same obsolescence constraint.
Manufacturing challenge
- Discontinued components require approved substitutes and re-qualification.
- Mixed through-hole and SMD complicates one-line assembly.
- FCT validates the variant's control paths.
Solution
Kilandu runs this board through a controlled NPI-to-production flow rather than a one-shot build:
- DFM: footprint, stack-up and test-point review is completed and fed back before any parts are ordered.
- Sourcing: turnkey procurement of the BOM, with qualified alternates managed for long-lead and obsolete parts.
- SMT: high-speed SMT lines with inline SPI, AOI and X-ray on BGA, voiding and hidden joints.
- Assembly: selective DIP for through-hole content and, where required, conformal coating.
- Test: ICT for net integrity, then FCT for the board-specific functions above.
Sourcing for obsolete parts; ICT + FCT on the variant.
Result
First-article inspection to IPC-A-610 Class 2/3 is completed, a golden sample is retained as the release baseline, and a pilot run is signed off before mass production. Per-batch traceability (lot, AOI/X-ray records and ICT/FCT logs) is kept. Order quantities and the customer's specific acceptance result are confirmed per project.
