StratEdge Electronic Assembly

Overview:

StratEdge has offered assembly and test services of DC to 50 GHz packages since 2000. The assembly process includes eutectic or epoxy die and passive component attach with automatic wire bonding. After assembly, the packages are lidded, leads trimmed and formed, and then tested with a HP8510C network analyzer. Post assembly services include labeling and bulk packaging including tape and reel. StratEdge can accommodate special requests such as grouping completed parts based on very tight electrical performance specifications. We assemble in our 5,000 Sq Ft clean room with sensitive operations performed in a class 100 work area. StratEdge is a ISO 9001:2000 facility.
