ADS Technologies is a world leader
in USB and IEEE-1394/FireWire solutions for the personal computer. Since
the company’s inception in 1992, the cornerstone of the company’s success
has been to introduce niche or high-end technologies to the consumer
marketplace with quality devices sold at a reasonable price.
Over the years, ADS Technologies,
Inc. has brought a wide range of products to market including video
capture and TV Tuner cards. This company experienced dramatic growth
in the later part of the 1990’s with the expansion into the external
bus industry, namely USB and IEEE-1394/FireWire.
1999
marked one of the company’s most successful years to date with the introduction
of the PYRO 1394/FireWire product line and continued popularity of its
USB products. PYRO 1394DV, the first consumer-priced digital video editing
solution in the PC marketplace, was designed in anticipation of the
increasing popularity of digital video camcorders.
The
year 2000 marked the year of FireWire. By the third quarter, nine new
PYRO products were announced making the brand name "PYRO"
synonymous with FireWire for the PC and Macintosh.
ADS

the headquarter offices in Cerritos, CA. Products are manufactured and
