September 29, 2004 Montreal -- Mindready Solutions Inc., supplier of solutions for test and embedded systems serving high-growth vertical markets, announced today an order from a major optical component manufacturer to deliver a customized burn-in test system for laser transmitters.

Mindready's burn-in and life-test technology will be customized to test optical laser component functions at high temperatures and over a wide temperature range, a critical feature to insure design and manufacturing quality of state-of-the-art tunable lasers used for telecommunications applications.

"The key benefits of working with Mindready in this kind of project are our high level of flexibility to adapt our technology to each customer's specific needs while keeping the costs competitive," asserts Claude Delage, president and CEO of Mindready Solutions. "Furthermore, since this particular customer was already familiar with our technology from previous contracts, they will reap many collateral benefits in terms of training, maintenance, and spares," he adds.

The company has developed several modular test technologies that can be easily customized to test even the most complex products, reports Delage. Customers appreciate that Mindready systems can test several components simultaneously.
