Micross Components said its Apopka, Florida facility received MIL-PRF-38534 Class K qualification from the Defense Logistics Agency Land and Maritime. Micross describes Class K as the highest quality level for hybrid microcircuits and a requirement for space applications.

The site already held Class H qualification and now supports both levels. Combined with its existing monolithic-circuit qualifications, Micross says it can supply domestic single-chip and multi-chip hybrid microcircuits for military and space uses. The announcement concerns facility qualification; it does not report product orders or a new production volume.
