NIWOT, CO – Aeroflex Corp., Agilent Technologies Inc., and Test Evolution Corp. proposed a modular test standard: AXIe (AdvancedTCA Extensions for Instrumentation and Test).
AXIe is an open standard based on AdvancedTCA that creates an ecosystem of components, products and systems for general purpose instrumentation and semiconductor test.
AXIe leverages existing standards from ATCA, PXI, LXI and IVI.
It provides scalability to address a range of platforms, including general purpose rack-and-stack, modular systems, semiconductor ATE systems, bench top, and module plug-ins.

BANNOCKBURN, IL – The Worker, Homeownership, and Business Assistance Act of 2009 was signed into law, providing net operating loss relief for electronics companies.
The NOL relief provision in the bill expands the refund eligibility to medium- and large-sized companies that were previously excluded from relief, permitting businesses to offset 2008 and 2009 losses against previous or future taxable income, according to IPC.
A company can use NOL relief to recover past tax payments or reduce future tax payments. It is the amount by which deductions exceed gross taxable income, resulting in a negative taxable income.
Eligible companies can receive tax refunds by applying NOLs to taxes during the previous five years, says the association. Companies also have the option of carrying the loss forward twenty years to future income tax payments, thereby reducing payments they will need to make in future periods.
