Product Wafer Level Packaging Substrates

The thermal expansion coefficient of these LTCC substrates is adjusted for use as Wafer Level Packaging substrates. The substrate surface has bumps for electrical connectivity and by bonding directly to silicon wafers, allows for easy assembly of CSP (Chip Scale Packaging). Ideal for MEMS and semiconductor ceramic packages with a small number of leads.

Features

Benefits of using a ceramic wafer capable of anodic bonding with silicon

  • Miniature,low profile,light weight devices become available
  • Lower cost with higher units per wafer count and simple assembly process
  • Faster development stage without the designing of electrical contacts

Hermetic sealed packaging technology with electrical connections (Etched Via Wafer)
※Products using this assembly technology will require a license aagreement with Tohoku University.
