About General Instruments
General Instruments was a prominent electronics manufacturer known for its innovative contributions to the telecommunications and cable television industries. The company specialized in developing advanced semiconductors, set-top boxes, and satellite communication systems. With a strong focus on research and development, General Instruments played a pivotal role in shaping modern digital communication technologies before its eventual acquisition by Motorola in 2000.
General Instrument (GI) was a diversified electronics manufacturer based in Chicago, USA, which specialized in semiconductors and cable television equipment. The company was active until 1997, when it split into General Semiconductor (power semiconductors), CommScope and NextLevel Systems (the cable and satellite TV division, which later reverted to GI name). The new (post-split) General Instrument Corporation was later acquired by Motorola and became the Motorola Connected Home Solutions division.
4 Star Quality Assurance
Our corporate goal is to be 100% accurate on every General Instruments order that we process. We achieve this goal by implementing several quality control checks throughout our distribution process.
This General Instruments inspection procedure includes:
- IDEA-ICE-3000 (72-point) visual inspection by (3) different quality inspectors.
- Data sheet verification of all parts.
- Acetone swab test on sample pieces.
- Extensive views under our macro zoom (200x) microscope for quality detection.
- Digital photos of all outgoing General Instruments parts.
- We maintain a strict approved vendor list (AVL).
4 Star Electronics also uses many customer satisfaction measurements to determine our performance in the marketplace with distributors, major customers and the ultimate end users of our products. Some of these measurements include customer surveys, on-time delivery and customer complaints. By doing this we have up to date information on how we are doing on multiple levels which in return equals complete customer satisfaction. Also by including customers in this process, we are able to prioritize their requirements and prevent deviations in our performance. As part of our continual commitment to quality, all General Instruments parts that we receive are inspected in our state-of-the-art ANSI/ESD-S20.20 certified facility located in San Clemente, California.
