GORE™ TETRAD™ MicroArrays

GORE TETRAD MicroArrays

High Performance in a Small Package

Applications for GORE™ TETRAD™ MicroArrays range from catheters to endoscopic devices. Small size, high performance, and low cost make the GORE™ TETRAD™ MicroArray perfectly suited for disposable devices.

The proprietary customer interface boards are easy to connect by utilizing standard termination technologies such as soldering, adhesion bonding, wire bonding, and others.

Features and Benefits
