Mintech grows interconnect business

Mintech Semiconductors has acquired additional premises adjacent to its current inspection plant.

Mintech Semiconductors is one of the world's largest stockists of semiconductor die.

As Europe's leading chip processor, the company, which recently acquired Die Technology, has continued its history of expansion by acquiring additional premises adjacent to its current inspection plant.

The new building has been acquired to maintain Mintech Semiconductors' growth in the interconnect business and also to furnish additional test facilities.

The interconnect business incorporates chip-on-board assembly, new and prototype die packaging, packaging die for obsolescence and the ability to convert die to a standard pinout configuration.

As a die assessor, Mintech mainly supplies semiconductors to the microelectronics industry, has over 50 million devices in stock and a large number of franchise agreements with original manufacturers.

This collaboration involves accessing their stock; but can also entail the complex task of recreating wafers that are no longer in current production (obsolete components) to fulfil customers' special requirements.

Mintech's "die banking" has become increasingly popular as an insurance against increasing component obsolescence, allowing customers to securely store products in their lowest cost form.

The wafers are stored in dry nitrogen cabinets or in vacuum-sealed nitrogen purged bags until the customer is ready to assemble.

New process developments have also been made with the introduction of uPost, which is a method of manufacturing a single die or quantities of die suitable for flip-chip attachment.

This advanced process is world acclaimed presenting numerous technical advantages, low cost introduction and an expedient time to market.

Already established on major projects throughout the world uPost is the ideal solution for many applications.
