CISSOID Introduces High Temperature IC Family in Plastic Package



Round Rock, Texas - February 2009. CISSOID, the leader in high temperature semiconductor solutions, announced its new CMT Product Family, targeting applications between -55°C and +175°C. The CMT family has been develop and optimized to fill the gap between usual semiconductor components and CISSOID's CHT family (-55°C to +225°C).

The CMT family operates reliably within specifications up to continuous temperatures of +175°C. It is a response to the market expectations for high temperature products with appropriate pricing for high volume markets such as automotive, medical and industrial. With their surface mounted plastic packages, the CMT products also help system designers who need smaller footprints at high temperatures.

"It is a revolutionary product family that CISSOID introduces: it makes electronic components with -real- high temperature capabilities available to large volume markets at affordable costs. Automotive, medical and industrial designers can now select the most space and cost efficient solution for their high temperature system, between CMT and CHT products from CISSOID. And it isn't a one shot: the CMT product family is part of our roadmap and it will be rapidly extended with a suite of analogue and digital functions" said Tony Denayer, CEO at Cissoid.

The first product to be released is a 555 timer in plastic SOIC8 package. The CMT-555 is available immediately. For more information, visit www.cissoid.com or contact the company's representatives.
