Power semiconductor materials focus of trade show
At the 37th International Symposium on Microelectronics November 16-18, 2004, Indiumıs exhibit will focus on Power Semiconductor Materials, such as Solder Wire, Solder Preforms and Solder Paste.
An extension to the current facility is also being built for additional offices and meeting rooms.
With this expansion, Class 10 clean room space will increase by 70% and Class 1000 clean room space by 50%.
This will position Micralyne for continued revenue growth in the coming years.

"With the new space we will be able to serve the needs of our current customers plus have strategic capacity available for prospective customers who are considering outsourcing their current MEMS production".
"Our revenues have grown steadily and our employee base has more than doubled to 175 since 2005".
"Furthermore, with the new space, we will have the room to add new equipment for an even broader product and service offering".
Expected completion date is October 2007.
