The company was founded on April 4, 1962 as AI Electronics Corporation[1][2][3] (アイ電子測器株式会社) by Japanese businessman Takayuki Sanada[4], initially producing factory monotoring systems used for industrial process control and later venturing in the manufacturing of small business microcomputers[5], in-circuit emulators and in-circuit debuggers.
On April 3, 1992 the company was aqcuired by Sega and became its wholly-owned subsidiary[6], responsible for the manufacturing and repairing of home video game console development tools.
On May 1, 2001, Sammy Corporation acquired 90 % of its shares and seven years later in July 2008 the company was acquired by Tokyo-based company Kaga Electronics Co. Ltd. (parent company of now defunct video game developing and publishing company Kaga Create Co., Ltd.) becoming its wholly-owned subsidiary.
In Ocotober 2016 following a restrutcturing of the Kaga Electronics group of companies, the company merged into Kaga Components Co., Ltd. (later Kaga Devices Co., Ltd, established in May 1997 by merging Voltek Corp, a subsidiary of Kaga Electronics and Tokei Denko Co.,Ltd) and was ultimately dissolved following liquidation in May 2017.
