Seventy-five years ago, co-founders Marlan and Rosemary Bourns set up shop in their tiny 384-square-foot garages in Altadena, California. Their idea to provide a component solution to accurately determine an aircraft's pitch attitude solved a crucial problem for pilots. Their invention of the first miniature linear motion and vane position potentiometers propelled the Bourns' small start-up into the global corporation it is today. What started from the development of a single product, Bourns, Inc. is now known as a trusted innovator and manufacturer of a wide range of advanced products that are used in thousands of electronics industry applications. |
