Our Comprehensive Range of Solutions
Hermetic Electronic Packaging
Space provides some of the toughest conditions for electronics; hermetic packaging ensures a stable environment to prevent disruptions in those electronics from any environmental changes. At Hermetic Solutions Group, we design the hermetic electronic packages for your space applications, using unique materials and manufacturing processes that optimize weight savings, footprint reduction, thermal transfer and more. Our precision machining capabilities allow us to meet very tight tolerances for aluminum, Kovar, and titanium housings. We deliver both custom and standard packaging solutions to ensure maximum protection for sensitive electronics, whatever extreme environmental conditions they face in the field.
Hermetic Interconnect Products
Interconnect products manufactured by Qnnect are designed to perform two functions: to connect the internal packaging components to external components on the atmospheric side and to ensure outside elements cannot enter into the electronic package. We offer a variety of high-reliability interconnect products that are ideal for space applications, from DC & RF hermetic connectors, nano and microminiatures, to headers, feedthrus, and vacuum components for use in extreme environments where superior performance is an absolute requirement. Many of our connectors meet or exceed MIL-SPEC requirements.
Enabling Components
Beyond the hermetic package to contain your electronics, Qnnect offers an extensive array of critical components that cover, seal, protect and adhere electronics to ensure a module’s long term viability. We manufacture getters to prevent post-hermetic sealing build-up of contaminants, solder preforms that aid in attaching electronic circuitry, ring frames that become integral side walls of a hermetic package, and custom thermal spreaders that ensure heat from a chip or substrate is efficiently dissipated. To top things off, we also manufacture package lids.
Laser and Integration Services
To complete your product design, we provide high-speed laser welding, sealing and marking with consistent accuracy.
