Sales plan

  • Sales start: June 1, 2007
  • Sales target: 10,000 units per month (at mass-production stage)
  • Sales price: varies with size, specifications and volume

Main Features

  1. Precisely controlled characteristic-impedance
    • Characteristic impedance of circuits is precisely controlled. Both of single-ended transmission and differential transmission circuits are available.
  2. Various shielding structures
    • Use various mesh pattern shields, and shield materials including new materials depending on customer's requirement.
    • Reduces reflection-loss, cross-talk, conductor-loss, and dissipation-loss to the utmost limit
  3. Various base-materials for various usage
    • New base-material such as LCP (Liquid Crystal Polymer) and PEN (Polyethylene Naphthalate), etc. are available for special environmental requirements such as "moisture-resistance" and "Low-VOC."
      These new base-materials also have advantage with its space saving (thinner than conventional material), and low-thermal dissipation properties.
