VC America started in 2002 supplying Seiko NPC semiconductor products and added LCC packaging, design and supply of HFF crystal technology, all to support hybrid clock manufacturers. They started manufacturing of subassemblies in 2004. In 2008, they added test for characterization and qualification of oscillators for extended temperature ranges as wide as -60°C to 150?°C.

They expanded into optical Encoder [read heads and interpolation] and sensor products [Optical, Infrared, UV, Magnetic]. VC America developed precision rotary and linear scales and make custom scales to customer requirements.

VC America's high stability clocks offer improved temperature stabilities versus standard CMOS clock oscillators and operated over -55°C to 125°C range with better stabilities ±10ppm to ±25ppm Some clock and RTC products are capable of operation to 200°C.
