ASE Test Selects GuideTech as the Standard Timing Instrument for the Agilent 93000 Platform.


Business Editors/Technology Writers

SUNNYVALE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct. 23, 2001

GuideTech Femto 2000 Delivers High Throughput Precision

Timing Test up to 800MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc.  on Agilent 93000

Guide Technology, Inc. (GuideTech), the leading innovator in high-performance time measurement instruments, today announced that the GuideTech Femto 2000 multi-channel timing test system has been selected by ASE (Adaptive Server Enterprise) A relational DBMS from Sybase that runs on Windows NT/2000, Linux and a variety of Unix platforms. ASE is a comprehensive and robust data management product with a long history dating back to the late 1980s.  Test to serve as the standard High Performance Timing Instrument for the Agilent 93000 Platform.

ASE Test Limited is the world's largest independent provider of semiconductor testing services.

The selection of the GuideTech Femto 2000 by ASE Test was based on the Femto's ability to deliver precision timing measurement performance on multiple channels in parallel on the Agilent 93000 test system.

"The Femto 2000 is a proven solution and has become the instrument of choice requested by many of our datacom and graphics customers. It provides enhanced performance boosting the capabilities of our ATE systems and enhancing test throughput in production," stated David Pan, President of ASE Test. "With the addition of the GuideTech Femto systems, our customers can benefit from a cost effective test solution for their high performance timing-critical devices."

"GuideTech is focused on offering innovative test solutions for the semiconductor industry and providing direct support next to the production test facilities which is key to the success of our strategic customers like ASE Test," stated Jim Ward There are several people named Jim Ward:
  • Jim Ward (advertising executive), president of LucasArts and senior vice president of Lucasfilm
  • Jim Ward (body piercing), pioneer in the field of body piercing when he opened The Gauntlet in 1975
