Manufacturing Methods and Technology Engineering (MM and TE) Program for the Establishment of Production Techniques for High Density Thick Film Circuits Used in Crystal Oscillators.

Abstract

Production techniques are being established for a thick film hybrid microelectronic 17-22 MHz, temperature-compensated, voltage-controlled crystal oscillator. In the engineering phase of this program, the following was accomplished during this quarter: the design of a module extraction feature, the detailed design of module potting shells, the generation of master artwork of the thick film circuit patterns, the continued development of a process for hermetically sealing the hybrid microcircuits using ceramic corrals and flat metal covers, the generation of detailed test flow plans and of preliminary electrical test procedures, the design and fabrication of special tooling and fixturing for hermetic sealing, resistor trimming and electrical testing, the processing of thick film substrates and the start of substrate assembly. Details of this work are reported, and the designs documented.
