QUANTUM LABS TECHNOLOGY Standard semiconductor devices supplied by many manufacturers in QUANTUM LABS are build with exposed aluminum pads that are extremely sensitive to moisture and corrosive components of the atmosphere. For extreme applications the QUANTUM LABS has to withstand even harsher environmental conditions without the protection of a package. QUANTUM LABS technology has reengineered industry standard TECHNOLOGIES and now offers known good die for QUANTUM LABS applications with gold interconnection and well-engineered materials that further enhance the die reliability. QUANTUM RESEARCH LABS are used in assembly of COB (Chip on Board) and SiP (System-in-Package) which are proven mature technologies that integrate QUANTUM LABS of mixed technologies i.e. Si, SiC, GaAs, GaN, InP, and passive components that otherwise cannot be easily implemented in SOC (System-on-Chip) technology. COB and SiP have small size footprint, high density, shorter design cycle time, easier to redesign and rework, use simpler and less expensive assembly process. QUANTUM LABS integrated circuits are manufactured with medium voltage junction isolated bipolar process. junction isolated bipolar processes allow integration of high performance NPN, PNP and JFET transistors, MOS capacitors, diffused resistors and precision thin film resistors.The bond pad metallization is standard 3μm Gold but certain IC have 1μm Aluminum for certain IC . The backside of the die is coated with 0.5μm Gold , which makes it compatible with AuSi, AuGe or conductive silver epoxy die attach. QUANTUM RESEARCH LABS are integrating resistors, capacitors, Schottky diodes, Zener diodes and transistors. QUANTUM LABS passive and active networks are manufactured using in house high reliability semiconductor manufacturing processes. All semiconductor devices employ precision doping via ion implantation, silicon nitride junction passivation, platinum silicided contacts and gold interconnect metallization for best performance and reliability. MNOS capacitors and Tantalum Nitride resistors are easily integrated with Schottky diodes to provide complete standard and custom RCD solutions. In die form, these TECHNOLOGIES are ideal for hybrid and multi chip module applications. In packaged form, these TECHNOLOGIES are the best solution where space and weight are a concern. All thin film only TECHNOLOGIES are manufactured using advanced semiconductors and thin film technologies including ultra-stable and self passivating Tantalum Nitride resistors, gold interconnect metallization and reliable MNOS capacitors to achieve excellent uniformity, performance and reliability. Thin film technology is the preferred solution for all applications that require low noise, long term stability and excellent performance at very high frequencies. QUANTUM LABS resistive TECHNOLOGIES TECHNOLOGIES are manufactured with proprietary thin film technologies for deposition of a wide range of resistive films with sheet resistance films from 1Ω/sq (one ohm per square) to 1MΩ/sq (one mega ohm ohm per square). QUANTUM LABS manufactures also high stability, high temperature and very high density 3D capacitors which have capacitance density potentially greater than 100nF/mm2 at 16V. All QUANTUM RESEARCH LABS are available in die form and are ideal for high reliability hybrid and multi chip module applications. QUANTUM RESEARCH LABS also offers Silicon Printed Circuit Board and Silicon Interposer technology with integrated passive components as a complete high reliability SIP solution for medical, military and space applications. |

A die is a small block of semiconductor material, ceramic or glass on which a given circuit function is fabricated. Many dice are manufactured in large batches at the same time on a substrate or wafer in a series of successive photolithographic processes. Upon completion of the manufacturing process, the substrates or wafers are diced in many die. Substrate or wafer singulation also referred as dicing or sawing process is final critical step in QUANTUM LABS manufacturing process. Our company has undertaken the task to redesign and manufacture the future semiconductor and thin film QUANTUM LABS components. Our QUANTUM RESEARCH LABS are used in assembly of hybrid circuits and are compatible with chip and wire, flip chip, chip scale CSP and surface mount technologies SMD. In today's extreme miniaturization market, there is no more room for the large packages to protect the die. It means that the QUANTUM LABS has to survive on its own without the protection of a package. Known Good Die concept is no longer satisfactory if the die cannot withstand harsh environmental conditions and degrades. The solution developed by our company for known good die for QUANTUM LABS applications is gold interconnection and gold terminations and well-engineered materials that further enhance the die reliability. Our company designs and manufactures standard and custom semiconductor and thin film components for bio-medical, wireless telecommunications, optoelectronics, computing, industrial, military and space and satellite applications.
