ELECTRONIC COMPONENT MANAGEMENT METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18627478 titled 'ELECTRONIC COMPONENT MANAGEMENT METHOD

The patent application describes a method that involves both manufacturer-side and user-side steps in the handling of electronic components.

  • Manufacturer-side steps include preparing an electronic component accommodation reel with an RFID tag storing a unique ID, storing electronic components, and storing manufacturer-side information in a cloud storage area.
  • The electronic components are then shipped in the form of the accommodation reel to the user-side facility.
  • User-side steps involve receiving and loading the accommodation reel, reading the unique ID from the RFID tag, and accessing manufacturer-side information from the cloud based on the unique ID.

Potential Applications: - Streamlining the process of handling electronic components in manufacturing facilities. - Enhancing traceability and information retrieval for electronic components.

Problems Solved: - Simplifying the identification and retrieval of manufacturer-side information for electronic components. - Improving efficiency in the handling of electronic components during production.

Benefits: - Increased efficiency in accessing relevant information for electronic components. - Enhanced traceability and tracking capabilities for electronic components.

Commercial Applications: Title: Enhanced Electronic Component Management System This technology could be utilized in various industries such as electronics manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, and consumer electronics for efficient handling and tracking of electronic components.

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the RFID tag help in the identification of electronic components?

  - The RFID tag stores a unique ID that can be read to access manufacturer-side information stored in the cloud.

2. What are the advantages of storing manufacturer-side information in a cloud storage area?

  - Storing information in the cloud allows for easy access and retrieval of data from anywhere with an internet connection.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method includes manufacturer-side steps and user-side steps, the manufacturer-side steps include preparing an electronic component accommodation reel including an RFID tag storing a unique ID and storing electronic components, storing manufacturer-side information in association with the unique ID in a manufacturer-side information storage area of a cloud, shipping the electronic components in the form of the electronic component accommodation reel. The user-side steps include receiving and loading the electronic component accommodation reel shipped from the manufacturer-side facility, reading the unique ID stored in the RFID tag, and acquiring, based on the unique ID read, manufacturer-side information stored in the manufacturer-side information storage area of the cloud.
