Press Release Body: Simi Valley, CA, June 18, 2008 -- Spectrum Integrity has added
standard and customized semiconductor test sockets to its array of current products
and services. The sockets are exceptional in price, performance, availability, and
the flexibility of customization.

A significant bottleneck is reduced in the test process." says Michael Ingham,
Director of Engineering at Spectrum Integrity, "Customers, at times, have been
forced to wait six to eight weeks for the delivery of their sockets. Now, with our
new socket offering, we are able to deliver high performance sockets in half the
time."

The company has successfully delivered its first turn-key solution of circuit
design, fabrication, and assembly complete with custom test socket. Customization of
the socket does not add to the standard three week delivery and can include routing
the underside to avoid high speed transmission lines or to allow components to be
placed close to the device under test.

Spectrum Integrity high performance sockets have the following characteristics:

AC performance to 20 GHz

Temperature rating from -50C to +150C

Guaranteed 100,000 insertions; 200,000 insertions typical.

Can be made compatible with existing socket footprints so no board re-spin needed

Ideally suited for QFN, BGA, and LGA packages

Three week delivery standard; two week expedited

Customization to include bottom clearance for critical traces or components

Two-thirds the cost of some competitor sockets
