High Temperature Cofired Ceramic (HTCC) Hermetic Packages

Multilayer Ceramic Package Capabilities

Electronic Products (EPI) is a powder-to-package, fully integrated HTCC technical ceramics and glass-to-metal package manufacturer. EPI uses a proprietary, advanced ceramics process to create multilayer microelectronic assemblies for harsh environments and conditions.

A multilayer circuit is a type of circuit board that has multiple layers of conductive material, separated by insulating layers. These layers are laminated together to form a single, unified structure. Multilayer circuits are used in a variety of electronic devices, including computers, smartphones, and other types of electronic equipment. They are preferred over single-layer circuits because they can provide more routing channels, reduce the size of the circuit, and improve the overall performance of the device. Multilayer circuits can have anywhere from two to ten or more layers, depending on the complexity of the circuit and the requirements of the device. EPI manufactures custom multilayer ceramic circuits for various applications that require high performance and microelectronic packaging.

HTCC Ceramic packages follow a multi-stage process to transform a ceramic powder into a tape form. The ceramic tape then follows an extensive process of punching, coating, printing and lamination to prepare it before firing and plating the ceramic package. Each ceramic package is manufactured using it’s own process with our extensive in-house equipment capabilities for maximum efficiency. From prototypes to full production, EPI can support a variety of production volumes.

Ceramic seals and packages give a high level of flexibility to create a microelectronic package in custom footprints while surviving harsh environments. The powder-to-package vertical integration business model allows EPI to control quality, lead-time, and costs to deliver products on time and within budget. Ceramic packages are available for commercial and ITAR-related items and are manufactured in Newburyport, MA under an ISO 9001:2015 quality management system.

We can accept a simple print and most software formats for your prototype design. We are using Solidworks and DraftSight for designing hermetic ceramic packages. Partner with engineers that have mechanical, electrical, and material science expertise to design and manufacture your next requirement for a ceramic seal.
