Laboratory Services
Coilcraft-CPS has testing facilities in North America and in Asia that perform comprehensive laboratory testing services for electronic components. In addition to testing the components we manufacture, Coilcraft-CPS povides a wide range of services able to help you determine the reliability of the components you manufacture.
We can perform a complete set of tests in accordance with established standards and specifications or specific tests targeted at reliability, repeatability or compliance to published electrical and physical specifications. We routinely perform qualification testing in accordance with AEC-Q200, MIL STD 883 and MIL STD 202 and provide all the necessary associated reports. Testing is also available for MIL STD 981, MIL STD 83446 and MIL PRF 27.
