Fully moulded high-reliability plastic packaging

Packaged solutions for optimal Size, Weight and Power (SWaP)


Filtronic invested in a specialist, plastic encapsulation capability for compound semiconductor devices, focusing on high-density System in Package (“SiP”) designs. Perfect for wideband gap semiconductors such as such as Gallium Arsenide (GaAs), Gallium Nitride (GaN), and Silicon Carbide (SiC).

We also offer extensive volume experience to customise and adapt products, optimising them for cost-efficient volume manufacture. With our significant investment in hybrid assembly, advanced microwave test systems, military standard processes and full traceability, we offer a unique low risk and secure service.

Process optimisation for high-reliability plastic packaging

Our capabilities focus on low-weight, low-cost, high-density packaging for high-power semiconductor devices, specifically designed to perform in challenging operational environments for the MoD, Royal Navy, Royal Air Force, and their global allies.


Our lead frame technology utilises best practices to mitigate delamination, voiding, improved solderability and wire bonding.
