Teledyne e2v is the first semiconductor manufacturer in Europe, and only third in the world, to be awarded the site level MIL-PRF-38535 Class Y certification from the Defense Logistics Agency. Also known as QML Class Y, the certification is recognized as the highest guarantee of quality and reliability for ceramic, non-hermetically sealed Flip-Chip microcircuits for Aerospace and Defense (A&D) applications. In addition to QML Class Y, Teledyne e2v has also been awarded QML Class V for its ceramic, hermetically sealed Flip-Chip microcircuits.
Teledyne e2v worked closely with the DLA and NASA to help shape the QML Class Y certification and now holds AS9100 and QML Classes Q, V and Y site certifications, making it one of the highest qualified manufacturers of advanced semiconductor solutions in the world.
Teledyne e2v is already certified to QML Classes Q and V for wire bonded devices; however the new certifications received from the DLA allows Teledyne e2v to guarantee solutions developed to serve the growing demand to use Flip-Chip packages in A&D applications. Noted as a landmark event in its long-term strategy to deliver the highest quality devices possible for its customers, the site level certification plays a vital role in its plans to qualify its latest space grade solutions to QML Class Y.
The QML Class Y certification arrives as Teledyne e2v announces the availability of its Industrialization and Manufacturing Services, offering world leading capabilities in semiconductor packaging solutions.
