with a global presence. The HQ is in Japan with production in Japan, China & Thailand and offices in Asia,
USA and Europe. Adamant makes fine precision and quality products processed at submicron levels
using their core technologies of precision cutting, grinding and polishing for a variety of industries.

For the semi conductor industry


Bonding instruments
 Capillaries used to connect Integrated Circuit Chips with Gold Wire Substrates and a new long
life matte capillary for copper wire
 Wedges used for the Bonding Head for Hard Disk to Lead Frame
 Air Tensions for Gold Wire Tension and Clampers to support the stretch of the wire

Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics (LTCC)


Adamant acquired LTCC business from Panasonic Corporation in April 2014. LTCC is a multi-layer
ceramic technology, where layers of low resistance metal are printed onto ceramic substrates to form
passive components and the layers are then stacked and fired to form a very robust finished product. By
using multiple layers, many different passive components can be fitted into a very small area and then
compounded to produce a single device. LTCC is a low loss material, therefore, LTCC is most suitable for
high frequency applications

Applications include :
 Medical Equipment - CT Detector module  Image Sensor Package

 MEMS Sensor Package - Hermetic Package  Industrial Equipment - Variety of CTE

 High Frequency & Microwave Device Package  RF SiP/FEM Substrate/LED Chip Carrier
- RF Front End Module, Low Pass Filters, - Multi Chip Module, High Heat
Chip Scaled Package for SAW filters Dissipation / Direct Plating Copper

Metryx develops and manufactures advanced metrology systems based on mass metrology. Mass
change provides a direct, passive and rapid measurement of process change in a semiconductor
process, regardless of whether it is an additive or subtractive process. The process change will
manifest as either a single excursion, or a drift and will allow process engineering and excursion
management decisions to be made and rapidly implemented. Because mass measurement takes
place on product wafers it enables the reduction of non productive test wafers, and provides
information quickly on process excursions reducing risk.

Metryx has a worldwide customer base including 300mm, 200mm and 150mm fabs in Europe, US
and Asia.

Metryx tools are in use on high volume applications in high volume productions fabs as well as in
multi application use in smaller fabs. Metryx has achieved recognition in this highly competitive
industry with awards including Semiconductor International Best Product Award, Eurasia
Semiconductor Yield Enhancement Award, and two Queens Awards for International Trade and for
Innovation.

Metryx is staffed by semiconductor industry professionals from the fields of equipment


engineering, process and applications development, and equipment sales and service. While many
of our customers are high volume 300mm fabs, our metrology technique can offer some real cost
savings to the mature 200mm fabs that are operated by many of NMI members. These fabs are
often running at close to capacity and cost savings represent direct improvements to profitability.

Metryx is working with a number of similar companies on activities to reduce test wafer
consumption, as well as increased process monitoring to help reduce reliance on slower, more
expensive analytical metrology.

already in some top end facilities We support all the Gigaphoton range of lasers on
decommissionings, Installations, refurbishments, service,training but cannot supply the parts yet.

We can also supply the Nikon g-line,i-line and DUV optics from body G6 - S204 scanners and also
have developed our own RPF filters for the i-line uniformity problems. We will shortly do the same
for the DUV tools up to S204. We will shortly be able to run all the Nikon i-line training classes from
Nikon body i8 - i14 in our state of the art clean room in Nijmegen as we are installing all the i-line
tools there at present to allow us to do this. We are also starting up EX14 steppers and will be able
to give EX14 training and Cymer 5400/5410 training there also shortly.

We have an extensive amount of Nikon parts in stock from Body 7 to S203 scanner and are looking
to expand that over the next year.These will shortly go onto our new website under construction at

of a wide range of metals in product, process or waste streams. We provide expert advice on the
best solution to your particular challenge, whether it is purifying high performing products or

We offer a range of services tailored to your needs from beginning to end of your process
including: technical advice on the optimum scavenger to choose, customised laboratory testing
services, advice on processing parameters and engineering services from pilot to full scale plant
design and installation. The unique properties of certain precious metals has led to their
widespread use in the production of high volume, high performance electronics components.

In many cases, such processes generate high volumes of dilute waste streams containing
significant amounts of precious metals which are not easily concentrated for use in conventional
recycling processes. Significant extra value can be unlocked from recovered precious metal waste
streams thereby improving overall efficiency and reducing product costs further in a highly cost
sensitive industry.

RCL is a consultancy and training company for reliability. We work with electronics companies to
help achieve world class reliability for a wide range of applications and operating environments.

We provide troubleshooting with design issues at chip level and system level, in areas ranging from
ESD to harsh environmental conditions. Our approach to reliability assurance takes account of the
“real world” operating conditions of the end product.

We are actively involved in bridging the gap between design and manufacture, providing support
throughout the product development cycle from the study and design phase through to customer
issues with the final product.

A number of factors, including the use of electronics in an increasingly wide range of conditions
and the additional risks introduced by smaller process geometries, have introduced new
challenges for manufacturers who must reduce levels of field returns in order to maintain
customer satisfaction.

We provide programmes of work to improve the quality and reliability of electronics systems
where there is multi-site manufacturing and complex supply chains. This may involve refining
existing quality systems, or addressing specific manufacturing issues. Our methodology is
underpinned by an awareness that every stage in the design and manufacturing process impacts
on product quality and reliability .

Today's semiconductor industry has a rapidly growing demand for faster turn around times in product
development and cost- effective manufacturing. This includes faster development of IC test solutions
and parallel efforts to cover the large variety of products.

In many cases existing test solutions must also be transferred to new high speed test equipment to
reduce the cost of test. There are also upcoming demands from "fabless” ASIC design houses to help
them transfer their ASIC designs to production.
These requirements often lead to resource shortages and requirements for additional expertise and
therefore contracting out test development work has more and more become an established route.

Smartest GmbH, a privately owned, Munich based company, was founded to address these needs in a
very flexible and efficient way.

Smartest offers a complete application package which is focused on short development times while
minimizing the involvement of the customers resources in the out-sourced project. This is achieved by
offering a complete package of services for IC test applications, including: : test concept engineering
- test program generation and debug - the design and manufacturing of interface boards -
production integration - product analysis documentation and training

The development process is monitored by computerized project planning and review tools. They are
transparent to the customer and also open to the customers requirements in TQM. Finally the
product support is guaranteed by a unique software warranty procedure.

This concept has proven to be very successful and today, Smartest supports a large number of tester
platforms for customers all over the world.
