Zeevo Selects the LTX Fusion Test Platform; Fusion CX Tests Highly Integrated, Single-Chip Bluetooth Devices.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers WESTWOOD, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 14, 2004 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 Zeevo, Inc. has selected the LTX Fusion CX to test its latest system-on-chip (SOC) Bluetooth devices. Used in applications such as wireless stereo adapters and remote controls for digital music players, Zeevo's advanced solution combines RF circuitry, an ARM microcontroller, a UART (Universal Asynchronous Receiver Transmitter) The electronic circuit that makes up the serial port. Also known as "universal serial asynchronous receiver transmitter" (USART), it converts parallel bytes from the CPU into serial bits for transmission, and vice , and embedded memory onto a single device. Due to the high level of integration, Zeevo's device required a high-performance test system offering both RF and comprehensive digital test capability. After a careful evaluation of major automatic test equipment (ATE) suppliers, Zeevo selected LTX's proven Fusion CX configuration, noting its performance, cost effectiveness and native asynchronous Refers to events that are not synchronized, or coordinated, in time. The following are considered asynchronous operations. The interval between transmitting A and B is not the same as between B and C. The ability to initiate a transmission at either end. digital capture. According to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. Jalil Shaikh, president and chief executive officer for Zeevo, "We looked at several test systems for RF and wireless devices, and Fusion CX stood out as the only SOC tester capable of effectively handling both the RF and the advanced digital requirements of our devices. Its array of test options fits perfectly with both our current and projected needs, and its test economics are unrivaled. These qualities, combined with the responsiveness and expertise of LTX's technical support, made Fusion CX the ideal choice for Zeevo." "Fusion CX was developed to address the most challenging test needs for emerging devices, like Zeevo's integrated Bluetooth solution," said David 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. "By selecting Fusion, Zeevo can be assured of a flexible tester architecture with superior performance for its groundbreaking devices - both now and in the future."
