Saunders & Associates

Saunders & Associates was formed in 1967 to provide consultation to the quartz crystal industry. The company soon pioneered quartz crystal electrical parameter measurement technology with the introduction of the company's Crystal Impedance Meters. The first model of the company's temperature test system was introduced in 1975 and these systems are... still being manufactured today. As the Personal Computer technology evolved, S&A was the first company in the world to introduce a PC based network analyzer card for quartz crystal measurements. The 250B Network Analyzer has become a de facto industry standard for crystal measurement with thousands of units installed worldwide. The company combined this measurement capability with the company's own ion beam technology to provide frequency adjustment systems that have continually set the standard for throughput and adjustment accuracy. The company's quartz crystal temperature test systems are the worlds only production systems with 100% electronic switching and frequency measurement resolution of 10 parts per billion. The company's current portfolio of products include test and production systems for Quartz resonators, Oscillators, Ceramic resonators, Filters, MEMs, Capacitors, and other devices. Since the company's inception, the company's innovative test and production products have been recognized worldwide as best in class and are relied upon by the company's customers in a demanding 24/7 production environment. Product innovation and creativity are core company strengths and the company look forward to working with the company's customers to provide solutions for their most challenging problems.Read More
