CLAY — M.S. Kennedy Corp. of Clay and Belgium–based Cissoid announced they’ve signed an agreement to develop “high-reliability” and high-temperature electronic modules.
M.S. Kennedy Corp., a subsidiary of DeWitt–based Anaren, Inc., specializes in high-temperature and “extreme” environment modules. Cissoid manufactures high-temperature and extended lifetime semiconductor products, according to their joint news release.
The firms’ collaboration will address packaging multiple integrated circuits (ICs) into new, integrated, and “highly compact,” standard, multi-chip module products.
Products that they jointly introduce will address new, high-temperature applications enabling customers to “quickly” develop their own products and reduce time to market, the firms contend.
Cissoid and M.S. Kennedy said they will soon announce the details of the first standard product that they developed together.
The firms are basing the product on Cissoid’s HADES V2, a “high-reliability,” high voltage, and isolated gate-driver product that will provide an “integrated” product for customers.
Both companies are also cooperating on custom modules, tailored to specific customer requirements.
M.S. Kennedy is “very excited” to be working with Cissoid on developing next generation, ultra-high temperature products, Bill Polinsky, business-development manager at M.S. Kennedy, said in the news release.
“We see this relationship as key to pushing high-temperature, multi-chip module functionality beyond 232°C (or degrees Celsius),” Polinsky said.
Cissoid is working “very closely” with firms that target the oil and gas, aerospace, industrial and automotive markets, Dave Hutton, vice president of worldwide sales at Cissoid, said.
“As we talk to our customers, we see an increasing requirement for more integrated solutions to address key application areas. The collaboration with M.S. Kennedy will allow us to bring together our combined expertise and excellence into solutions that address those market needs,” Hutton said.
