High Reliability PCBs for Aerospace and Defense
Printed circuit boards for mission-critical applications must withstand harsh environments without failure. Summit Interconnect manufactures highly reliable circuit boards backed by industry certifications and trusted by many US military, defense and aerospace organizations.
Our Aerospace Certifications
We support numerous key defense programs with advanced technologies across a wide spectrum of platforms. Several of our sites maintain MIL-PRF-31032 and Nadcap certifications; and one site holds the MIL-PRF-50884 certification.
-
AS9100D
AS9100 is a widely adopted and standardized quality management system for the aerospace industry.
-
MIL-PRF-50884
This specification established the performance and qualification requirements for flexible or rigid-flex circuit boards.
-
MIL-PRF-31032
MIL-PRF-31032 is a certification based on a military performance specification. Certification to this standard is intended for manufacturers that wish to be suppliers to the Department of Defense.
-
Nadcap
Global accreditation program ensuring aerospace suppliers meet strict quality standards.
