Ceramic/Hermetic

Ceramic/Hermetic Package Assembly

Ceramic/Hermetic packages are commonly used for

applications requiring high performance and high reliability.

They can generally withstand higher temperatures than

traditional plastic packages, and the relatively low CTE of

ceramic materials and the cavity construction also make

ceramic/hermetic packages ideal for extremely stress-

sensitive devices such as MEMs sensors.

Amkor supports a wide range of assembly options for

ceramic/hermetic packages, including commercial,

automotive, and military/aerospace process flows. The

assembly line is highly customizable, allowing assembly of

a large variety of commonly used ceramic/hermetic

packages.
