SAN JOSE, Calif., Feb. 21, 2012 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ Symmetricom , Inc. /quotes/zigman/55441/quotes/nls/symm SYMM +1.96% , a worldwide leader in precision time and frequency technologies, today announced it has shipped the QUANTUM(TM) Chip Scale Atomic Clock (CSAC) against sample, pilot, and volume orders to 100 unique customers, including market leaders in fields ranging from marine seismic exploration through aerospace/defense systems. This milestone demonstrates strong momentum in the market and is significant for a design-win product introduced just one year ago.
Recently named one of EDN Magazine's "Hot 100 Products" of 2011, the QUANTUM CSAC is an industry first due to its breakthrough advantages in size, weight, and power over existing technologies. The only commercially available product of its kind, the CSAC provides precise timing and synchronization for a wide array of low power military, communications, industrial and scientific applications. The CSAC has also received market interest from applications and industries beyond those initially expected, including food services, high-end commercial audio, first responders, astronomy and space.
"Symmetricom's QUANTUM CSAC is a practical, useful, affordable and dead-accurate timing solution for a variety of industries and applications," said Jim Turley, founder and analyst at Silicon Insider. "The company has built on its history and expertise with state-of-the-art timing systems to deliver the first CSAC in volume production."
In November, Symmetricom announced the selection of Kyocera America to augment production capacity of the CSAC to meet strong global demand from new and existing customers. This partnership will allow Symmetricom to scale production of the CSAC to meet increased customer demand.
"Since the introduction of the CSAC in January 2011, demand for this breakthrough product has been exceptional and it is proving to be a significant innovation in the market." said Dave Cote, president and chief executive officer at Symmetricom.
