Market Overview
• Wide temperature ranges exist within military, aerospace and defense applications, so electronics components are needed that are stable up to 260 degrees C.
• J-STD-001 certified solders, like other certifications, for high-voltage solder assembly are needed to minimize corona (partial discharge) effects and assure a proper electrical connection.
• Reliability is crucial in high-voltage applications, whether as part of a fighter jet radar, providing power in a satellite, or detecting deterioration in huge hydro generators. – This helps the pilot of that jet perform missions safely, because satellites cannot
be conveniently repaired in space, and so you can schedule maintenance on the generator before catastrophic failure.
• Tailored solutions help provide optimum size and design for the application. Solutions that are customized may not be off-the-shelf items and may be more costly, but they will be tested and built to meet the specific requirement to help insure dependability.
