ASAT - of or relating to a system to destroy satellites in orbit; "antisatellite weapons" antisatellite Holdings Ltd., a global provider of semiconductor assembly, test and package design services, and one of the leading subcontract manufacturers in China, has selected an Agilent 93000 Pin Scale system with Audio/Video 8 (A/V (1) (Audio/Video) Refers to equipment and applications that deal with sound and sight. The A/V world includes microphones, tape recorders, audio mixers, still and video cameras, film projectors, slide projectors, VCRs, CD and DVD players/recorders, amplifiers and 8) for testing high-volume mixed-signal and digital devices at its new production facility in Dong Guan guan: see curassow. , southern China. ASAT selected the 93000 Pin Scale system for its scalability and flexible tester resource architecture. "Many of our customers have requested that we adopt the 93000 Pin Scale system to support their device testing requirements," said John Ritchie For other persons named John Ritchie, see John Ritchie (disambiguation). John Ritchie (born in Kettering, 12 July1941 - 23 February 2007) was an English footballer. Playing career , senior director, Testing Operations and Engineering at ASAT. "The 93000 Pin Scale tester allows ASAT to flexibly support the varied test demands we receive from different mixed-signal device applications, using one test platform. This will help us to meet our production test goals in our new China facility." The 93000 Pin Scale system is a leading high-speed digital and mixed-signal test platform, and is completely configurable, allowing each test pin to be flexibly and quickly adjusted to meet changing test needs. By adding the 93000 Pin Scale system with A/V 8, ASAT can offer its end customers the multi-site parallelism and unique cost-of-test effectiveness the solution provides. "We are pleased to be working with ASAT for the first time during this exciting time in the company's growth in China," said Pascal Ronde n. 1. (Print.)
