LitePoint Updates andWireless Market Trends

Opening Remarks

• LitePoint Expands Its Test Reach- High performance IC Characterization and System DVT

• Beyond the Triple-Play: - Carriers move into security and automation

LitePoint Technology Seminar, June 2014 2

• m-Commerce:- Gaining critical mass and enabled by Near Field Communication

LitePoint Acquires ZTEC Instruments

• In October 2013, ZTEC Instruments became part of LitePoint

“zSeries” product are modular: flexible to build customized DVT solutions

LitePoint Technology Seminar, June 2014

• “zSeries” product are modular: flexible to build customized DVT solutions

• PXIe-based solutions >> ideal for the lab environment
