Evolving from simple devices to sophisticated instruments allows manufacturers to see the whole picture.
Recent advances in optical imaging, computers and wireless communications are creating a new digital-to-data revolution that affects how products are manufactured. Digital products are everywhere. Devices such as cell phones, PDAs, jump drives, digital cameras, and the ASIC's that run them, fuel people's ever-increasing appetites for cheaper, better and faster products.
