Electronic Concepts was incorporated in June of 1969 for the purpose of participating in the specialty film capacitor segment of the electronics industry. Since then, Electronic Concepts has grown to be recognized and respected name in the field. Through engineering innovation and expertise, production flexibility, and service, Electronic Concepts has become a major supplier in such high technology areas as Avionics, Medical Electronics, General Instrumentation, Military Electronics, Telecommunications, and others.
The manufacturing facilities consists of 64,000 square feet in Eatontown, New Jersey USA, established in 1971, and 20,000 square feet in Galway Ireland, established in 1982.
A major factor in the growth and success of Electronic Concepts has been its leadership role in the area of new technology. The company has made a continuing commitment in this area which is evidenced by many patents. We have addressed the changing needs of the industry. This effort is evidenced by the following innovative products:
 |
Type ECR capacitor: this capacitor is the physically smallest film capacitor in the industry. It is the same size as the ceramic CK05. |
 |
Type HECR capacitor: This is a hermetically sealed version of the ECR, suitable for more stringent applications. Both the ECR and HECR capacitors are qualified to military specifications. |
 |
Type 5MC capacitor: This Capacitor type directly addresses the requirements of the switch-mode power supply industry, especially in view of the new, higher frequency technology being utilized in recent design. |
 |
Type MP80 and MP88 capacitors: These are Snubber Capacitors especially designed for protecting IGBTs used in inverters and chargers in electric vehicles. |
 |
Unlytics: These are characterized by high energy density and are used in such applications as defibrillators. |
In order to support our continuing technical advances, Electronic Concepts employs a staff of engineers whose total film capacitor experience is in excess of 100 years. These engineers, in addition to keeping abreast of industry trends, are in frequent contact with customers to address their current, specific requirements.
Complimenting the technical innovativeness, a total commitment to customer service has also been made4 in areas of quality, on-time delivery, and responsiveness.
QUALITY
Several customers have included Electronic Concepts in "Dock-to-Stock" programs whereby incoming inspection has been eliminated. Participation in such programs id restricted to suppliers who have consistently demonstrated high levels of quality. In this respect, Electronic Concepts meets or exceeds the requirements of MIL-I-45208 in conjunction with MIL STDs 45662 and 202. As a result, we have been qualified to virtually all of the active film capacitor military specifications. Additionally, an SPC program is in effect and qualification to ISO 9000 is in progress.
DELIVERY
Our commitment to on-time delivery is supported by a computerized Production Control system which provides a mechanism for tracking orders on a daily basis. This information is available at satellite terminals throughout the plant. Problems such as yields, etc., surface at a point in time where in most cases immediate corrective action can be taken to ensure on-time delivery.
RESPONSIVENESS
Electronic Concepts is a "key account" oriented company. In order to support this philosophy, an account-manager system has been established, whereby one person assumes full responsibility for all aspects of customer support for an account. One of the most important duties of the account manager is accurate and timely response to all inquires. Additionally, the account manager is responsible for tracking and pre-expediting orders as well as other areas of general customer support.
The results of the key account system have been particularly gratifying. The majority of our business emanates from key accounts most of whom are members of the Fortune 500.
