In general terms, a hybrid is a product that uses a variety of technologies in its construction in order to improve performance and/or reliability or to reduce size. Most SMT devices can be produced using a hybrid design.

What is a hybrid product?

Benefits of Data Acquisition Products:1 We use components that are in their die

form. This results in: • Smallerfootprint - You can use this

space/weight savings to reduce the size of your board or to add other features to your system

• Becausethecomponentsareindieform,they are in closer proximity to each other - This results in optimum speed/performance of the individual components and, more importantly, the entire system

2 We use proven Hi-Rel processes • Components are housed in a hermetically

sealed ceramic package • Die-attach, wire-bond, and thick-film

processes can withstand harsher environmental/mechanical stresses

• Our 29-Step production testing process ensures quality, performance and reliability

3 Our system arrives fully screened and tested • We supply a functionally complete data

acquisition system that has been individually laser trimmed to achieve its optimum performance

• There is no need to procure/manage hundreds of components - our solution provides one component to purchase and any lot to lot component variations will be addressed and resolved by DATEL - not as a line down situation on your production line

• Component obsolescence is addressed by DATEL. We identify and qualify component changes such that we can maintain the supply of the system to you. Let us manage the obsolescence concerns, and find the replacements as required

4 We have hundreds of proven off the shelf designs available • We also have the ability to customize a product

to meet your specific needs

5 The entire design and manufacturing team islocatedunderoneroofinMansfield,Massachusetts • We bring 30 years of Hybrid Data Acquisition

design and manufacturing experience to the table - let us use our extensive analog/digital design expertise to shorten your design cycle, and more quickly get your product into market

6 We offer true resolution • Our 12, 14, 16, 18 bit converters are truely

what they say. There are no missing codes over the entire operating range

•Our A/D converters are actively trimmed to achieve optimum digital representation of your sampled input - this results in the best signal-to-noise ratio on the market.

7 We are audited and certified by the Defense Supply Center of Columbus (DSCC) as suppliers of MIL-PRF-38534 Class H Hybrids

Die AttachComponents are attached with either silver or glass filled epoxies, this results in tremendous bond strength while achieving outstanding conductive or insulating properties.

Single or Multi Layer Screen PrintingConductive or Dielectric Pastes are screened onto a ceramic plate to create a single or multiple layer high-reliability thick-film substrate.

Seam SealWhile the device is under vacuum, a Kovar lid is welded onto the seal ring of the ceramic package. The internal components are in a moisture free, hermetic environment.

WirebondThe components are wire-bonded using tried and proven ball and wedge processes. This results in a high-reliability bond, while achieving very low connection resistances.

Hybrid Power Modules

We are also able to leverage the capabilities of our low-power design group to incorporate DC/DC converters into your sub-system, or even as a fully screened stand-alone module.

• 20MSPS sample rate• Functionally complete design• Optimised for low-noise applications• No missing codes over full temperature range• Ideal for both time and frequency-domain

applications

Typical applications include high-speed data acquisition systems, medical instruments, radar I/Q, DSP, and automatic test equipment (ATE) for military, industrial or commercial applications.

Radar & Missile tracker/seekerPerformance, quality and high-reliability are the three key attributes of all Defense Systems. Our data acquisition components meet all three attributes, and are used in many state-of-the-art Radar and Tracking system applications. Whether you are using one of our commercial off the shelf (COTS) components or our full MIL screened (883) components, rest assured that both have been processed on the same manufacturing line and are fully tested and ready to meet the requirements of your system.

Defense SystemsTypical Application

High Power TelescopesWhether you’re exploring the vast solar system, or interaction of atoms within a molecule, there is data that needs to be acquired, transferred, stored and analyzed. Our products are designed to acquire an analog event and convert it into a digital format, to allow for real time or subsequent scientific analyzing. We offer true high resolution, high speed acquisition components and systems - and our process results in a solution that achieves outstanding system performance in a small footprint.

Scientific ResearchTypical Application

Standard ProductsWe have many standard hybrid designs that have been proven in the field for their reliability and performance. These include:

Typical modifications include:

• Modifiedinputrange

• TighterDCspecifications

• Modifieddynamic specifications

• Customtests or temperature ranges

We can also work with you to modify a product further to suit your specific application,forexample:

• Incorporatingsomeofyouron-boardcircuitryinto one of our existing modules – allowing you to source a single, fully screened building block tailored to meet your exact needs

• Increasingthespeedofanexistingproduct

• Modifyingapackageorpinouttoaccommodateyour specific needs

• Convertingastandard/customproductintoaSMT solution (where a high reliability package is not required)
