Satcon Electronics Receive Space Level Certification (Class K)

SatCon Electronics, a designer and manufacturer of High Reliability electronic modules and products, has received certification by the US Defence Supply Center in Columbus, Ohio (DSCC) enabling it to build space-qualified products to the MIL-PRF-38534 Hybrid Microcircuit Class K.

Class K is the highest reliability level achievable in the assembly of hybrid microcircuits, which are used in applications such as secure communications, HDTV, satellite TV and radio signals, satellite controls and on-board diagnostics. SatCon Electronics has been a supplier of microelectronic devices to Class H for a number of years and now joins an elite group of 13 US manufactures with this space-level certification.

SatCon Electronics has supplied space level devices for use in GPS satellite systems to one of its current customers for about 4 years. In addition, SatCon Electronics' acquisition of SIPEX data converter products in 2002, brought additional space level Class K products, some of which might be used for other space applications.

SatCon Electronics undertook the challenge of achieving Class K certification level to improve its product offerings and to respond to the new emphasis on increasing the reliability of all participants in space and satellite applications.
