Microelectronic Design & Measurement Group Formed

SANTA CLARA, Calif., May 22, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Three companies, Thermal Engineering Associates (TEA), Package Science Services (PSS), and Microsanj, have collaborated to form the Microelectronic Design and Measurement (MD&M) Group.  The MD&M Group will better serve customers of the three companies with a broad range of complementary products and services in the very specialized field of semiconductor and systems thermal management.

MD&M products and services support the design, analysis, and measurement of semiconductors, packages, and systems, with consulting services and products for the design of systems cooling, thermal environments, and associated fixtures; measurement of thermal resistance in a variety of environments; steady state and transient imaging of package and substrate thermal characteristics; characterization of high frequency packages and device interconnects; precise heat sources in the form of thermal test chips and thermal test vehicles, among other products and services.

The three companies have recently moved to 3287 Kifer Road, Santa Clara, CA 95051-0826, where they maintain offices, labs, and research facilities.
