Avnet Analyst Day 2010 Presentation 4 Technology Solutions
Avnet Secure Micro Solutions
1. Avnet Electronics Marketing, IBM and Endicott Interconnect (EI) are trusted and dependable supply sources
for electronics. US manufacturing facilities and logistics centers provide a highly secure solution, while DoMEStIC SuPPlIErS
delivering rapid turnaround on applications. IBM and EI products meet ISO, IPC and military specifications,
RoHS compliance, ITAR registration and are compatible with lead-free assembly processes.
Size, Weight and Power (SWaP) Challenges
Reducing system size, weight, and power (SWaP) is critical to the development of new applications for the
defense aerospace industry. By achieving reductions in the form factor and power consumption of today’s
military electronics, developers are able to improve mobility and extend operational life, enhancing the
overall viability of the product in the marketplace. Avnet Electronics Marketing, IBM and EI have partnered to
help customers leverage System-in-Package (SiP) technology to achieve SWaP goals; bring differentiated
products to market quickly and efficiently and to establish design and supply chain continuity.
Endicott Interconnect
EI is a leading developer of SiP products that integrate multiple IC, assembly and test technologies into modular IC packages. One such product optimized for
aerospace applications is the CoreEZ™. EI’s CoreEZ semiconductor package utilizes the HyperBGA® manufacturing platform to offer a thin core build-up flip chip
package with very dense core vias using a cost sensitive material set. The core via density provides 199 micron via-to-via core pitch resulting in an essentially
coreless structure, which can accommodate ASIC, FPGA and many other semiconductor solutions. EI also offers HyperBGA® packages that are composed of
materials that have passed NASA outgassing testing and are recommended for aerospace applications up to radiation tolerant.
IBM and Avnet
IBM and Avnet work closely together to implement IBM System-on-Chip (SoC) ASIC solutions. IBM’s proven ASIC design systems reduce chip count by combining
FPGAs and older ASICs on single chips. The integration and implementation of qualified sets of tools, libraries, cores and packages enable customers to predictably
design ASICs while closely managing risk. The IBM ASIC design system has been validated through ten generations of ASIC development and more than a thousand
designs, many done in collaboration with Avnet Engineering Services (AES).
