Active Optical Cables (AOC) Assembly |
Photonic Packaging with the MRSI-M3
Active Optical Cables (AOC) technology is a cabling methodology that accepts the same electrical input as traditional copper cables, but utilizes optical fiber between the connectors. AOCs use electrical-to-optical conversion on the cable ends to improve speed and distance performance of the cable without sacrificing compatibility with standard electrical interfaces. The basis of AOCs is to embed the active optical transceiver components into the electronic connector instead of using separate optical transceiver and pluggable fiber cable.
The manufacturing of AOC components require ultra-precision assembly combined with delicate die handling, sophisticated machine vision, automatic material handling, precision epoxy dispensing and in-situ UV curing. The MRSI-M3, 3 micron die bonder is commonly used by OEM and contract manufacturers worldwide for this demanding application. |
Semicon China Another Big Sucess |
Thanks for visiting the CYCAD Booth at Semicon China!
It was great to see our existing and new customers. The traffic at the show booths certainly kept us busy and is an indication of the upbeat market conditions. Thank you to our agent CYCAD for their hospitality in China. Customer discussions centered around our traditional market strengths including eutectic and epoxy die attach for RF, Microwave Modules, Photonics Packaging and complex MCM assembly, as well as some of the newer applications such as Active Optical Cables (AOC) and 2.5/3D Thermo Compression Bonding.
Come see us at the next trade show which is ECTC 2014 in Orlando or you are always welcome at our Billerica, MA facilirty.
