A new agreement grants Tyco Electronics specific rights to use FCI's patented BGA technology for application to microprocessor sockets, including those that support Intel Pentium 4 products.

In addition, the license agreement will enable FCI to manufacture and sell current-generation microprocessor sockets using BGA attachment, as well as future generations of microprocessor sockets.

Tyco is the first manufacturer to obtain the right to use FCI's proven BGA technology in a connector application.

FCI has shipped over 8 billion BGA-attached connections since developing and commercialising this leading-edge technology for use on its MEG-Array high-density, board-stacking connectors.

BGA attachment provides the most reliable surface-mount-compatible low-inductance connections demanded by current and future high-speed microprocessors.
