IC packaging / Advanced PCB

As the industry demands that larger quantities of data are transmitted more quickly and on smaller electronic parts, advanced printed circuit boards have become increasingly popular, and SCHOTT thin glass substrates are the ideal choice. Eco-friendly materials are also in demand, with D263® T eco and AF32® eco demonstrating a number of environmental credentials. The same technology also enables miniaturized IC packaging.

Radar

Autonomous vehicles are a good example of technology that relies on ultra-high resolution Radar to measure the velocities of surrounding objects, but they need reliable hermetic and heterogeneous packaging components to operate without interference. SCHOTT’s range of hermetic and heterogeneous packaging eliminates potentially dangerous performance impairment by protecting sensitive electronics from heat, moisture, impact and other environmental factors.
