Ceramic, glass and silicon wafers and substrates
Ceramics, glass, silicon - from these hard-brittle materials in the form of wafers or panels we manufacture filigree precision components such as customised useful substrates, moulded parts, spacers, housings and much more. In the context of microsystem and hybrid electronics, so-called thick-film or thin-film substrates serve as circuit carriers for electronic components such as resistors or integrated circuits (IC). Similar to plastic circuit boards made of FR3 or FR4 material, the substrate can be manufactured using multilayer technology or the individual conductor tracks can be printed in multiple layers. For wafers made of either mono- or polycrystalline silicon as blanks from the semiconductor or optics industry or panels made of high-performance ceramics and technical glasses, we offer not only laser processing but also mechanical dicing.
Thermal management in PCBs
Conductive tracks are electrically conductive connections of electronic components on printed circuit boards and integrated circuits. To prevent short circuits or high leakage currents from occurring during current and voltage supply and signal transmission, the conductor paths must be electrically well insulated from each other.
Printed circuit boards or circuit carriers made of glass, ceramics, silicon are ideally suited as heat sinks, as they have an electrically insulating and thermally conductive effect at the same time. Low Temperature Cofired Ceramics, also known as LTCC ceramics, is a technology for manufacturing multilayer circuits based on sintered ceramic carriers in electronics.
