LTX announces X-Series test systems selected by Silicon Laboratories
LTX Corporation, provider of semiconductor test solutions, announced the selection of its X-Series Fusion test systems by Silicon Laboratories Inc.
Silicon Labs is extending its deployment of the X-Series to support the production test requirements of its new high voltage products. This deployment builds on the success of the company's early implementation of the X-Series for its FM tuner product family. The flexibility of the X-Series enables Silicon Labs to easily field configure its installed base of CX systems, as well as those at its subcontract test partners, to address the additional requirements of its high voltage products.
"Our high voltage products address an important, high volume target market for Silicon Labs," noted Jon Ivester, Silicon Labs' Vice president of operations. "When it became time to implement a test strategy for this group's portfolio of new devices, it was clear we should leverage the success we have already experienced with the X-Series. Its low cost of test, solid alignment with our product requirements, and extensive presence at subcontract test providers were all important criteria in our initial selection – and are also critical advantages for our high voltage products. In addition, LTX has demonstrated the value of their field applications and factory engineering expertise, an important resource for Silicon Labs as we rapidly introduce innovative new ICs."
