| SCSI Dual Thevenin termination network Stable resistor network multiple terminating line/package Save board space and reduces assembly cost SCSI Termination Thevenin termination Peripheral devices like drives, printers, and CD-ROMs are connected to host through a special bus called SCSI(Small Computer System Interface). The fast edge rated signals that are transmitted through the SCSI cable generate ringing on the bus. This will slow down communication between host and peripherals. The SCSI standard recommends proper resistor (Thevenin) termination at host and peripheral locations to eliminate transmission line effects. Dual Thevenin Termination Networks offer high integration and performance in a miniature QSOP or SOIC package, which saves critical board area and provides manufacturing cost and reliability efficiencies. A terminating resistror is used to reduce or eliminate unwanted reflections on a transmission line. It can perfom this function only when its resistance value matches the characteristic impedance of the transmission line. The resistors used for terminating the transmission lines should be noiseless, stable and functional at high frequencies. Unlike thin film-based resistor networks, conventional thick film resistors used for terminating transmissinon lines are not stable over temperature and time and impose system performance limitations at very high frequencies. Integrated passive networks are manufactured using advanced thin film technologies including ultra-stable and self passivating Tantalum Nitride resistors, gold interconnect metallization and reliable MNOS capacitors to achieve excellent uniformity, performance and reliability. Thin film resistor technology is the preferred solution for all applications that require low noise, long term stability and excellent performance at very high frequencies. Semiconwell employs proprietary thin film technologies for deposition of a wide range of sheet resistance films from 1Ω/sq to 10,000 Ω/sq. All Semiconwell's products are available in die form and are ideal for high reliability hybrid and multi chip module applications. |

| SEMICONDUCTOR-THIN FILM MANUFACTURING PROCESS DESCRIPTION |
| Integrated passive networks are manufactured using advanced thin film technologies including ultra -stable and self passivating Tantalum Nitride resistors, gold interconnect metallization and reliable MNOS capacitors to achieve excellent uniformity, performance and reliability. Thin film resistor technology is the preferred solution for all applications that require low noise, long term stability and excellent performance at very high frequencies. Semiconwell employs proprietary thin film technologies for deposition of a wide range of sheet resistance films from 1 Ω/sq to 10,000 Ω/sq. All Semiconwell's products are available in die form and as KGD, known good die and are ideal for high reliability hybrid and multi chip module applications. Besides thin film resistors, Semiconwell integrates capacitors, Schottky diodes, Zener diodes and transistors. Integrated passive and active networks are manufactured using Semiconwell's in house high reliability semiconductor manufacturing processes. All semiconductor devices employ precision doping via ion implantation, silicon nitride junction passivation, platinum silicided contacts and gold interconnect metallization for best performance and reliability. MNOS capacitors and Tantalum Nitride resistors are easily integrated with Schottky diodes to provide complete standard and custom RCD solutions. In die form, these products are ideal for hybrid and multi chip module applications. In packaged form, these products are the best solution where space and weight are a concern. |
