SM capacitor gives top high-frequency performance
TTI is offering the ground breaking AO-CAP range of aluminium-polymer surface-mount capacitors from Kemet.
Coax connectors run up to 50GHz
Covering a frequency range from DC to 50GHz, embracing over 30 different series and comprising hundreds of versions, Amphenol's coaxial connectors are available from TTI.
AS9120 certification is specific to mil/aero customers.
Dennehy adds: "This is a very important achievement for the European business".
"Many of our largest aerospace customers are now requiring this registration as a condition of doing business".
AS9120 requires particularly close control with regard to assuring the traceability of product, the separation of different products and the elimination of any possible contamination of products by foreign objects.
It is also very detailed regarding JQAs (job qualification audits), and more practically focused regarding the execution of operational procedures, as opposed to ISO standards which are based more on theoretical procedures in a manual.
TTI Europe's new premises in Maisach-Gernlinden was designed and built with approval to AS9120 in mind from the outset.
(In the USA, TTI is also one of just a select few distributors to hold this qualification).
Concludes Dennehy: "I want to thank everyone for their hard work and efforts in realising this success". Request free introductory details about products from TTI Europe ...
