Written by Tracy Heffner
Tuesday, 03 April 2007
ATLANTA and PITTSBURGH – Intercept Technology Inc. and DesignAdvance Systems Inc. have announced that they have entered into a partnership to integrate Intercept Technology’s PCB layout software, Pantheon, with DesignAdvance’s PCB placement design and automation technology, CircuitSpace. The integration of Pantheon and CircuitSpace will reportedly make it possible for PCB designers to automatically cluster and locally place components in the Pantheon layout environment.
"CircuitSpace, with its innovative new technology, is becoming an integral component within the leading PCB design flow,” said Steve Klare, founder and CEO of Intercept Technology. “Our partnership with DesignAdvance reflects our strategy to team with expert partners to provide integrated solutions that increase productivity for our customers."
“Partnering with Intercept is a direct response to customers’ requests for integrated solutions within multiple design environments of the PCB design flow,” said Edward Pupa, CEO of DesignAdvance. “Together, we will continue to improve user-assisted automation in what has traditionally been a manual process of PCB component placement.”

CSP/BallNest Socket Provides Consistant Test and Burn-In
Aries Electronics introduces the CSP/BallNest Hybrid Socket for test or burn-in of chip scale package, ball grid array, microBGA, land grid array and prototyping. It can be used on any device having a pitch of 0.30 mm or larger. Features include a lid that nests each ball termination into the socket for a reliable connection and a four-point crown providing scrub on solder oxides. It has a signal path of 0.0777 inches and provides minimal signal loss for higher bandwidth capability. Estimated contact life is 500,000 cycles, and the socket is available in custom materials, sizes, configurations and platings. www.arieselec.com
