Teradyne's High Performance Circuits Group Earns High Benchmark Scores in Printed Circuit Board Manufacturing.NASHUA, N.H. -- Teradyne, Inc. (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange : TER Third version. See bis. ) Connection Systems Division, the industry leader in high-performance connection systems, today announced that Teradyne's High Performance Circuits group (HPC (Handheld PC) A palmtop computer that weighs less than one pound and runs specialized versions of popular applications. Microsoft coined the term for its Windows CE operating system, which is an abbreviated version of Windows. See Pocket PC. ) located in Nashua, NH has demonstrated competitive benchmark scores for printed circuit board manufacturing capability, quality and relative reliability. Teradyne HPC recently submitted for test and analysis a total of 30 test panels of the standardized IPC (1) (InterProcess Communication) The exchange of data between one program and another either within the same computer or over a network. It implies a protocol that guarantees a response to a request. PCQR2 12-layer, 0.093 inch thick, high technology design. These panels were fabricated fab·ri·cate tr.v. fab·ri·cat·ed, fab·ri·cat·ing, fab·ri·cates 1. To make; create. 2. To construct by combining or assembling diverse, typically standardized parts: in three different batches of 10 panels each with one week separating the start of each batch. Each 18" x 24" test panel was manufactured in an identical fashion using very complex criteria on 24" x 28" process panels. "The IPC PCQR2 database evaluations are like the Consumer Reports of circuit board process capability," said Dinis Anselmo, Front End Engineering Manager, Teradyne Connection Systems. "These tests and comparative analyses confirm that we make reliable technology with high levels of quality in printed circuit board manufacturing." "The IPC PCQR2 test and analysis data provides database subscribers with statistically based data to compare printed circuit board fabricator demonstrated capabilities and make informed supplier selection decisions," said David Wolf David Alexander Wolf (born 23 August 1956) is an American astronaut and a veteran of four space shuttle missions and an extended stay aboard the Mir space station. Born and raised in Indianapolis, Indiana, where he graduated from North Central High School, Wolf earned a , VP Technical Marketing, Conductor Analysis Technologies, Inc. (CAT, Inc.). Technology and program management for the IPC PCQR2 Database are provided by CAT, Inc. Teradyne's printed circuit boards can be used for manufacture of a variety of products in the telecommunications and military and defense industries which demand very high technology and highly reliable printed circuit boards.
