LTCC By DT Microcircuits

Resulting from the joint venture between Darfon and Thales, DT Microcircuits offers its customers the best of the LTCC; State of the art technology, low cost, reactivity, flexibility, proximity to customers.

 


State of the art technology

  • With more than 15 years of experience, Thales R&D teams have brought to DT Microcircuits an extensive knowledge of the LTCC technology developed for the benefit of various applications such as wireless, automotive, micro-wave, military, avionics,…
  • LTCC technology of DT Microcircuits progresses due to tight collaboration with world-wide known LTCC raw material suppliers such as DuPont, Ferro, Heraeus and also benefits from Darfon's knowledge about tape and ink manufacturing for capacitor and inductor chips.
  • Two R&D teams, one in Taiwan and another in France, have extensive resources at their disposal to offer each customer the best.

Low cost

  • With 5 fully automatic lines installed in Taiwan, low cost area par excellence, with materials and processes tried and tested on millions of modules for the handset market, DT Microcircuits offers prices among the lowest in the worldwide ceramic substrates market.
  • No doubt that more and more customers will, with DT Microcircuits take advantage of LTCC substrates at a competitive cost compared to the traditional PCB solutions.
  • Highly automatic processes at high yield rate together with efficiency and productivity of Taiwanese operators will make LTCC cost effective. Integrating Darfon homemade materials will further make LTCC low cost happen.

Reactivity

  • Helping customers to reduce the "time to market" of their products is one of most important targets of DT Microcircuits.
  • DT Microcircuits associates the famous flexibility and speed of Taiwanese companies with the unique prototyping process developed by Thales to provide customers with prototypes within 1 to 3 weeks. Due to flexible tools, 3" x 3" LTCC prototypes panels may include one or several versions of circuits, which allow DT Microcircuits customers to reduce their development time.
  • Build up a strong and tight partnership with customers to be more reactive face to their needs.

Flexibility

  • In partnership with its mother companies, DT Microcircuits proposes you the service you are waiting for. From the simple LTCC foundry to the design and the manufacturing of a complete solution, DT Microcircuits, Darfon and Thales will adapt themselves to their customer's business models.
  • Working under a pure foundry mode, DT Microcircuits lets the customer design the substrates. Complete design guide, library cell and LTCC design training are offered to customers who need it.
  • The design of the substrate, based on customer specification can be made by DT Microcircuits.
  • The complete functions design or co-design, module assembly and test can also be handled by DT Microcircuits mother companies.

Proximity to customers

  • Whatever your need, you will easily find a skilled team of DT Microcircuits to discuss with. Sales, design and technology specialists are ready to listen to you in Europe and in Asia.
  • The Taiwanese mass-production LTCC substrates factory is close to competitive assembly houses you probably work with. DT Microcircuits will establish there a dedicated production line for your circuits under a client separate policy.
  • Taiwanese and French designers and prototyping lines are close to your R&D teams to make your developments easier.
