Giga-tronics Inc. (San Ramon, Calif.) has received orders in excess of $4.8million to supply microwave test equipment for the automation of production at contract manufacturers in China.

“Our ASCOR series 8000 was selected due to its ease of configurability for matching a wide range of test setups and because it delivers a guaranteed 10 million cycles of operation,” said John Regazzi, CEO of Giga-tronics. “This award is also significant for Giga-tronics as it represents our first real penetration into Asia and positions the company for future growth from this region.”

The products supplied, which are part of Giga-tronics' microwave signal switching family, are are expected to ship this fiscal year.
