Silicon Turnkey Solutions Orders LTX's Fusion; Advanced SOCs to be Tested and Characterized on Fusion HFi.WESTWOOD, Mass. -- LTX LTX Liver Transplant LTX Lane Training Exercise LTX Laptop Expansion (Slot) Corporation (Nasdaq: LTXX), a leading supplier of semiconductor test solutions, today announced that Silicon Turnkey Solutions (STS (Synchronous Transport Signal) The electrical equivalent of the SONET optical signal. In SDH, the European counterpart of SONET, STS is known as STM (Synchronous Transport Module). ) has ordered Fusion HFi to deliver test and characterization services for its customers' advanced system-on-a-chip (SOC) devices. STS, a one-stop supplier of design, assembly, test, qualification, reliability and product screening for complex ICs, will use Fusion HFi to provide test services for a broad range of integrated circuits including: graphics and network processor ICs, high pin-count ASICs, Serial ATA devices, and chips for HDTV (High Definition TV) A set of digital television (DTV) standards that offer the highest resolution and sharpest picture. Although some HDTV sets are available in standard (rather square) screen sizes, the overwhelming majority of sets are wide screen, which eliminates and DVD DVD: see digital versatile disc. DVD in full digital video disc or digital versatile disc Type of optical disc. The DVD represents the second generation of compact-disc (CD) technology. applications. "Our customers depend on us to get their most challenging ICs to market quickly without compromising performance, quality or reliability," said Zef Malik, president of STS. "To help accomplish this, we selected LTX's Fusion HFi, which has proven to be the most versatile and powerful ATE solution in the marketplace today. With the complexity and integration of our customers' chip designs evolving rapidly, LTX's scalable, single-platform architecture ensures that we can continue to support our customers with test services that evolve as quickly as their devices." According to Larry Jorstad, chief technologist for STS, "Fusion HFi distinguished itself among ATE systems with its capabilities for the latest and most demanding test requirements, such as PCI Express and other SERDES See serializer/deserializer. protocols, source synchronous digital for DDR (Double Data Rate) Refers to an SDRAM memory chip that increases performance by doubling the effective data rate of the frontside bus. For more details, see SDRAM. DDR - Double Data Rate Random Access Memory 2, and integrated wireless interfaces. The combination of HFi's performance and our test-services expertise gives our customers an edge that translates into faster time-to-market and better chip performance." "Having the leaders of STS, known for their advanced IC testing expertise, hand-pick Fusion HFi as the cornerstone of their business strategy makes a powerful statement about our scalable, single-platform test system," said Dave Tacelli, president and chief operating officer Chief Operating Officer (COO) The officer of a firm responsible for day-to-day management, usually the president or an executive vice-president. of LTX. "The unique capabilities that Fusion can deliver today and the continuing advances that LTX's engineers are designing for tomorrow make it an excellent investment for an advanced test services company."
