<<In their conf call this AM INVX talked about an aggressive ramp of their bridge flex that is taking place and that all the new capacity they will add through June is dedicated to this program...do you know which TSA program/customer this will be for?>>

Z, a bridge flex is not used to interconnect a read/write head. A bridge flex is usually used in combination with a TSA or like interconnect. The cost of making a TSA that has a tail which extends on from the suspension makes it interesting to use a bridge flex.

Therefore Tim's question was a good one. Expanding sales of bridge flex from Innovex are most likely good indicator of TSA sales.
