Build-To-Print Basics: Military And Space Grade Applications

By Tim Bice, Knowles Precision Devices

At Knowles Precision Devices, we know it takes high-quality and high-reliability electronic components to meet the rigorous standards required for military and space applications. After all, when launching expensive mission-critical equipment into space or using highly sophisticated electronic warfare devices to protect your citizens, there is no room for failure. Therefore, we build all our components, including those we develop for build-to-print customers, to MIL-STD-883, a standard that “establishes uniform methods, controls, and procedures for testing microelectronic devices suitable for use within military and aerospace electronic systems.”
