Since 1995, USTC solutions have been integrated into microprocessor tests, validation processes, and design debugging, and have been deployed to all major development centers in the United States and abroad, including to China, the United Kingdom, Israel, India, Malaysia, and the Philippines. Jim Kerner organized USTC with a vision to build a world-class team of experts to deal with Moores Law: as processor speed increases, power and heat will also increase, and at a certain point, processors cannot continue to operate with increased speeds unless thermals are managed. An experienced team is organized to focus on research and design, as well as the application of new technologies in thermal management. USTC has received over 30 U.S.- and foreign-issued patents and pending patent applications on new methods and devices.
