A successful project entails combining creative solutions with best practices to create a product that is reliable, accurate, and robust. We have a long list of satisfied customers from a variety of different industries, each of whom have presented us with unique challenges and requirements:

• For IBM, we built a complete turnkey system for conducting accelerated life testing of disk drive heads. This complex system measures disk drive head resistance as the temperature, current, and magnetic field are varied. This robust new system is significantly faster and more accurate than their previous system.
• For Applied Materials, we developed software tools for testing their latest chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) equipment. CMP equipment is a strategic market for the continued growth of Applied Materials.
• For National Semiconductor, we created software for a device characterization and design validation system for integrated circuits employed in high-speed communication protocols. This new Windows-based system replaced an antiquated DOS-based system. In addition, we integrated state-of-the-art instrumentation hardware and software, which enabled them to test devices that operate at higher frequencies.
