IECQ-Approved Independent Test Center

This means that the testing laboratory is certified according to an international standard "ISO/IEC17025 (JIS Q 17025)" which stipulates the requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories. The certification is granted by the Certification Management Committee (CMC) of IECQ. Acquisition of this certificate proves that the testing laboratory is capable of performing quality compliance tests and quality verification tests for electronic components based on the IECQ standard.

ETAC was certified as an IECQ-approved independent test center on July 28, 2000.

ISO/IEC17025 (JIS Q 17025): It is officially called "general requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories". It is an international standard which specifies requirements for testing procedures and technologies but not products or services. The laboratories are examined as to whether they have an established management system which can identify the causes of problems by going back upstream when a testing method is found inadequate or nonconforming.

JCSS Accredited Laboratory

JCSS (Japan Calibration Service System) is also called "the traceability system based on the Measurement Law". Under this system, calibration laboratories are examined for their technologies, past records, etc. while any inadequate measuring practices are stringently pointed out. This is a system to certify the calibration laboratories which are able to produce traceable data according to the national standard (calibration criteria are clear and data is verifiable by tracing back to the source),

*We aim to acquire JCSS certificate for temperature calibration in April, 2006.
