About Berkeley Nucleonics Corporation

Berkeley Nucleonics Corporation builds precision electronic instrumentation for test, measurement, and nuclear research. The company was founded in 1963 and is headquartered in San Rafael, California, with additional offices across the United States and a network of international representatives.

From its early work in pulse generation to its current families of signal sources, analyzers, and sensors, the company has stayed close to one idea. Engineers do their best work when the instrument tells the truth and stays out of the way.
