AEROSPACE Facility is certified to aerospace quality system
Rochester Electronics, theworld's largest authorized continuingmanufacturer and distributor of end-of-life andmature semiconductors, has certified its facility in Newburyport,Mass., to AS9120 requirements, the aerospace quality management systemfor distributors. The AS9120 certification provides supplierswith a comprehensive quality systemfocused on areas directly impacting aerospace distribution. The AS9120 standard addresses chain of custody, traceability, quality control, availability of records and counterfeit awareness.
In addition to AS9120 certification,
Rochester Electronics is also IS0 9001:2008 certified, EN 9120:2002 certified, JISQ9120 certified, and amember of the Class V QualifiedManufacturer List (QML) by the Defense Supply Center Columbus (DSCC). In
2007, Rochester received the Chinese Reliable Electronic Component Supplier's Classification (RECS) by China'sMinistry of Industry, a joint administrated programby the China Electronic Purchasing Association (CEPA) and the ChinaQuality Association for the Electronics Industry (CQAE).
"The AS9120 qualitymanagement system
is based on the tested and proven foundation of ISO 9001 with additional enhanced requirements for lot splitting, control of records,material traceability and foreign object detection (FOD). This certification confirms Rochester's commitment to supplying customers with reliable, authorized end-of-life andmature semiconductors formilitary and avionic applications. As a contractually licensed continuing semiconductormanufacturer, the AS9120 certification demonstrates
Product suitemeets Rev. B of 1xEV-DOstandard
Aeroflex, a global provider of microelectronic components and test andmeasurement equipment used by companies in the space, avionics, defense and commercial wireless communicationsmarkets, has announced that the PXI 3030 cdma2000/1xEV-DOMeasurement Suite nowsupports Revision B (Rev B) of the standard, at no additional cost to current licensees.
This latest upgrade extends the capabilities of the Aeroflex PXI 3000
Series test systemto include fast and cost-effective production testing of mobile handsets, components, and chipsets to the new standard revision.
The PXI 3000 Series production test systemwith the PXI 3030 Option
102 upgrade for Rev B now performs the full range of parametric measurements on 1xEV-DO Rev B transmitters, including high-speed alignment and performance verification of devices operated in a non- signallingmode. The high speed and throughput for RF test of Rev B mobile handsets and characterization of RFICs dramatically reduces the cost of production testing. Coverage ofmultiple cellular and wireless connectivity standards – including Bluetooth,WLAN, and other standards in addition to 1xEVDO Rev B – allows full RF testing of amulti-mode device using a single box solution.
Rev B of the 3GPP2 1xEV-DO standard has been designed to enable
enhancedmobile broadband operation bymeans of supportingmultiple carriers, allowing higher data rates whenmultiple RF channels are combined. 1xEV-DO Rev Bmaintains full compatibility with the existing Revision A in terms of channel structure.

SERVICE PROVIDER RECEIVES ITAR REGISTRATION
A-Laser, a division of FCT Assembly and a laser cutting service specializing in the ablation of ultra-thinmetals and plastics, announces that it has received the official International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) registration fromthe U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Political-Military Affairs. This registration documents A-Laser’s dedication to adhering to the regulations that control the export and import of defense-related articles and services on the United StatesMunitions List.
ITAR regulationswere designed to control the information
andmaterials ofmilitary-related technologies and ensure that military technologies are only sharedwith U.S. persons unless approval fromthe Department of State is received via a special exemption. The registration of a company to complywith ITAR regulations allows themtowork in conjunctionwith the U.S. military, and expresses the company’s obligation to handle ITAR-protected products according to all regulations.
To qualify for ITAR registration, A-Lasermet strict
requirements for corporate structure, security, record keeping, and procedures for handling of sensitivemilitary and intelligence applications.
“ITAR registrationwas a logical next step in the growth of our
laser cutting services and allows us to provide a higher level of support to some of ourmost valued customers,” said Josh Saunders, VP of FCT Assembly’s Parts Division.
A-Laser provides high cutting edge precision and position accuracy (±0005"), fine contours and virtually radius-free internal edges (
