tax rate. Year to date, net income of $15.9 million was down 46.1% compared to the prior year.
wo out of four members of the SEMATECH EMI Partnership placed orders with Carl Zeiss to
purchase an actinic aerial image metrology system AIMS™ EUV for reviewing defects in ad- vanced masks needed for extreme ultraviolet lithography (EUVL).
Furthermore, with Axio Zoom.V16, Carl Zeiss is defining a new instru- ment class in microsco- py. For the first time, zoom microscopes are now combining typical benefits of stereomic- roscopes such as zoom optics and long working distances with the higher resolutions of light micro- scopes. In comparable image fields, Axio Zoom. V16 offers a 2.5 times higher resolution than stere- omicroscopes. With a 16x zoom range, Axio Zoom. V16 surpasses all comparable microscopes currently available.
The O-INSPECT line from Carl Zeiss is also growing: the O-INSPECT 322 coordinate measuring machine is now available. It is the smallest system with which Carl Zeiss is expanding the range of applications
of its coordinate measuring machines. The system unites contact ZEISS scanning and optical measuring. This combination is now available in two sizes: O- INSPECT 322 and the original O-INSPECT 442. Both machines use the same sensors and function; the difference is in the measuring range.
irrus Logic Inc. (NASDAQ: CRUS) has introdu- ced its second family of digital LED control-
lers with digital TruDim™ dimmer compatibility technology designed to accelerate worldwide adoption of LED retrofit bulbs.
In addition to providing near 100% compatibility with the world’s installed base of dimmers, the new CS163X family provides two-channel LED color mixing capabilities. This allows LED bulb manufacturers to more efficiently create warm, natural light quality while also lowering the cost barrier for two-channel LED retrofit bulbs. The CS163X family enables improved color quality at up to 30%.
