SUSS Bonders Selected for MEMS Research Lab in Mexico.


MUNICH, Germany -- SUSS suss  
tr.v. sussed, suss·ing, suss·es Slang
1. To infer or discover; figure out: "I think I'm good at sussing out what's going on" Ry Cooder.
 MicroTec, a leading supplier of precision manufacturing and test equipment for the semiconductor and emerging markets announced today that the University of Juarez (UACJ UACJ Universidad Autónoma de Ciudad Juárez ), Mexico has selected its advanced wafer bonding equipment for its research laboratory.

UACJ is an integral member of the Paso del Norte (PDN (1) (Packet Data Network) See packet switching.

(2) (Premises Distribution Network) The network that connects a customer's ADSL transceiver (ATU-R) to the Service Modules (PCs, routers, set-top boxes, etc.). See DSL.
) Regional MEMS (MicroElectroMechanical Systems) Tiny mechanical devices that are built onto semiconductor chips and are measured in micrometers. In the research labs since the 1980s, MEMS devices began to materialize as commercial products in the mid-1990s.  Cluster and a key player in supporting bi-national innovation and entrepreneurial development in Mexico. The cluster consists of academia, government research labs, and industry, and is focused on commercialization opportunities in MEMS packaging.

The UACJ research facility will use SUSS's SB6e semi-automated wafer bonder, BA6 bond aligner, and FC150 device bonder to develop and advance MEMS prototyping processes in Mexico.

"The SUSS products are key acquisitions for our laboratory," says Dr. Jose Mireles, Professor at UACJ. "By providing precision wafer bonding processing technology in a semi-automatic format, the SB6e Bonder is the perfect solution for engaging in research and at the same time facilitating technology transfer to a full-scale production setting. Also, the FC150 device bonder versatility for flip chip and MEMS bonding is ideal for research in today's hybrid packaging. We thank the funding from the Economy Minister of Mexico, as well as the endless support for pushing the MEMS Technology initiative in Mexico by the Mexico-US Foundation for Science."

"Packaging and Test are critical steps for MEMS devices, since much of the product cost is associated with these two operations," says Michael Kipp, President, Wafer Bonder Division, SUSS MicroTec, Waterbury, Vermont, USA. "We are pleased to support the University of Juarez as they work to promote MEMS packaging technologies in Mexico."

The SUSS FC150 Automated Device Bonder incorporates a bi-directional microscope and high-precision mechanical stages to translate and rotate the parts during alignment. The FC150 offers best-in-class O 1om post-bond accuracy (3 sigma) to assemble MEMS and optoelectronic devices.

The SB6e is a semi-automatic, computer controlled vacuum wafer bonding system. It delivers superior post-bond alignment accuracy resulting from precision mechanics, uniform force capability and leading-edge temperature control. SUSS MicroTec offers advanced wafer bonding solutions for the MEMS, SOI (Silicon On Insulator) A chip architecture that increases transistor switching speed by reducing capacitance (build-up of electrical charges in the transistor's elements), and thus reducing the discharge time. The power requirement is also reduced in some designs. , 3-D interconnect, and optoelectronic markets.
