Company Mission

Our mission is:

• To deliver professional mixed-signal test solutions, flexible, and optimised for ease-of-use, fast testprogram development and cost optimised performance.
• To tailor solutions to customer's needs - and in close liaison with the users.
• To have satisfied customers
• To offer long-term commitment to the market

Strategic Partnerships

microLEX has a clear strategy of pursuing strategic partnerships in the market. As part of this strategy, microLEX has since more years been an Alliance Partner of National Instruments, worked closely together with companies like Interface Technology (digital Test), Integrated Measurement Systems (engineering test of mixed-signal ASICs), JTAG Technologies (boundary scan test), etc.

Focused Test Solutions

The basic concept of the company is to provide application-focused solution to the users. Pursuing this, microLEX has a strategy of "buying-the-best, making-the-rest", i.e. typically buys the best instrumentation available, and develops the software and missing hardware elements to make the solutions form complete, cost effective and advanced systems to meet the needs of the market. The systems have open-system-architectures like VXI-bus, PCI, PXI, GPIB, "M"-modules, etc. featuring ease of maintenance and allowing users to integrate own solutions in a given system. One element of utmost importance in the business of microLEX has been to provide solutions that are very user friendly, and lend themselves towards use of designers as well as test people, aiming at bridging the gap between design and test, especially in the fields of mixed-signal.

Through the use of extensive and performance optimised software tools, e.g. test sequencers, limiter functions, software instrumentation and test databases combined with preferably open architecture hardware modules from leading instrument makers, the solutions offered are cost effective and promise a large flexibility and upgradability to meet also future needs. Hence, a user only has to satisfy the immediate functionality needs of a system, leaving expansions to a later point in time if or when requirements of a given system change. This allows the user to take advantage of improved cost and performance of tomorrows instrumentation as well.

Cooperative R&D

microLEX Systems has been active in cooperative European industrial projects, e.g. under the ESPRIT programme. In mixed-signal test projects like ESPRIT 21.261 "AMITY" and ESPRIT 26.877 "OPTIMISTIC", microLEX has cooperated with leading companies like Bosch, Nokia Mobile Phones and others. Several results of these projects are today included in the microLEX solutions to industry.
