Universal Synaptics Founders, Brent and Paul Sorensen (1994)

The Wright Brothers of No Fault Found, Brent and Paul, display and demonstrate the first Intermittent Fault Detection & Isolation System (IFDIS). The IFDIS, originally marketed as a CND (Cannot Duplicate) Tester, is now known as an NFF (No Fault Found) solution. Universal Synaptics’ message has not changed since the first prototype IFD: “Undetected, and hence unrepaired, intermittent faults drive No Fault Found (NFF) test results, poor operational readiness, high maintenance costs, and a slow and inefficient supply chain.”

Intermittent fault detection pioneers

Since 1996, Universal Synaptics Corporation has been the industry leader in detecting and isolating elusive intermittent faults with our unique and innovative line of Intermittent Fault Detection (IFD) technology. Mr. Brent Sorensen, the original No Fault Found Crusader & test engineer/inventor, pioneered the IFD electronics science and understanding. Mr. Sorensen spent years in the trenches researching and solving complex diagnostic and testing problems. His intense focus on resolving the long standing Intermittent / No Fault Found (NFF) phenomenon led to research into the primary root cause of these problems and the massive digital testing void that exists today with conventional scanning continuity test equipment. Dedicated research ultimately led to the development, patent, production, and deployment of the IFD neural network, all lines all the time monitoring, detection and fault isolation capabilities.
