We are as passionate about quality as we are about performance and price. Fully ISO9001 certified, we build in quality through our process-oriented quality management system. Our New Product Development Process (NPDP) follows a proven methodology from initial idea, through feasibility, definition, development, evaluation, release to mass production.
Long-term customer satisfaction is based on our ability to produce ICs of outstanding quality. Our quality objectives cover the whole life span of our products, starting with listening to our customer's needs and going right through to after-sales support and service. In between, we ensure that our internal development processes are subject to rigorous scrutiny and review. Our proven development model ensures that each phase of the process contributes to the final quality of the product.
Process steps include:
• Customer/market requirements
• Technology feasibility
• Design
• Prototyping
• Customer testing
• Specification conformity
• Production standards
• Quality review
