Customer testimony by Endress+ 
Hauser, a leader in industrial sensing.

“When we engaged TUSK IC for a critical RF design project, we brought them one of the most demanding specifications in our product portfolio.

Throughout the project, the TUSK IC team demonstrated outstanding technical expertise, transparency, and a highly collaborative way of working. Their engineers became a seamless extension of our own team, proactively addressing challenges and consistently delivering high-quality design work. The result exceeded our expectations and enabled us to meet ambitious performance targets that were critical to our next-generation industrial sensing platform.

What impressed me most was the performance of the VCO. The phase-noise specification was extraordinarily challenging, and yet the team delivered a solution where the noise floor was barely measurable. Achieving that level of performance while maintaining the overall system requirements is a testament to the technical depth and dedication of the TUSK IC engineers.”
