Paricon Technologies was founded more than thirteen years ago by a Bell Telephone Laboratory expert in interconnection technology with the intent of developing next generation separable interconnection solutions before they are needed by its customers. In this way, Paricon has continuously been an industry leader in interconnection solutions with a growing family of leading edge products that address the advanced needs of the electronic Industry. Among the many firsts introduced by Paricon are:
Paricon was the first company to provide separable interconnection capability at a contact pitch of 100 microns.
In anticipation of the growing need for separable interconnection at ever increasing bandwidth, Paricon has developed a cost effective contactor capability that has very low loss at 60 GHz and above.
As device pitch goes below 0.5 mm, the feasibility and cost of test boards has become a major challenge to the industry. Paricon, in anticipation of this need, introduced its patented Space Transformer Technology 6 years before the introduction of 0.4 mm devices.
Conventional contactors damage the contact pads on test boards greatly increasing the cost of test. Paricon was the first company to provide life extender interposer capability that makes it possible to extend test board life with any contactor to over 2 million test cycles. Expensive Test boards can now outlast the device product cycle.
High performance, impedance matched board to board interconnect for co-axial and flex circuit systems which are electrically invisible up to 40 GHz is a standard capability for Paricon.
Paricon's continual focus on the "bleeding edge" has led to its being assigned more than 25 patents for its inventions as well as several industry awards.
Although Paricon offers a significant catalog of standard interconnection products, we have focused our core competency on working with our customers to develop unique, ergonomic designs that address their custom needs.
Paricon is a full interconnection solution provider with focus on customer specific products ranging from high performance test products to production products as well as advanced test systems. The markets we serve include Telecom, Computer, Instrumentation, Medical, Automotive, Military and Space. Our customer base includes many of the top companies in the world. We have the ability, and partners, to brainstorm, design, develop, provide and support most advanced interconnection needs.
Our Mission Statement was written by the company founder, Roger Weiss, and it represents the companies' dedication to the success of its customers.
