In the line of testing, VLC offers basic capabilities to create prototyping assemblies.
The idea of prototyping assembly is to have optical and electrical connections with PIC so that customer can perform the functional testing easily and quickly.
VLC operates the assembly service in a ISO-6 (Class 1,000) clean room infrastructure
