International Rectifier’s world class manufacturing
facilities include wafer fabs, semiconductor
assembly, advanced power electronics, hybrid
module and SMT system assembly.
International Rectifier has QS9000 and ISO14001
certified wafer fabrication facilities in Temecula
and El Segundo, California, Newport, Wales as well
as Turin, Italy, providing state-of-the-art die, test
and tape and reel capabilities. Our Known Good Die
(KGD) process guarantees die quality through 100%
testing. Using true Kelvin connections to enable
measurements at high current, the die are examined
in a proprietary test nest. This results in measurably
higher yields in module assembly.
IR maintains world-class facilities worldwide,
dedicated to the superior manufacture of
components for the automotive industry. IR
maintains the standards of QS9000, ISO/TS 16949
and ISO14001. In addition, QS9000 certified
facilities also contain a Class 10,000 clean room
environment. IR’s highly skilled team of technicians
and operators use fully-automated, high-volume
manufacturing processes focused on zero defects
for demand fulfillment.
Our facilities all have the necessary equipment,
including printing, drying, dynamic trimming and
pick-and-place for production of high-volume thickfilm
hybrid circuits. IR Automotive produces power
generation electronics sold to major first tier automotive
suppliers for chassis and powertrain applications.
Our hybrid circuits are assembled in plastic
housings and soldered with specially designed
flame-soldering equipment.
IR has design expertise on a variety of material
systems for electronic controls and we
manufacture some of our own ceramic substrates.
Material systems include:
 | Thick film |
| Isolated metal substrate |
| Direct bonded copper (AIN or SiN or AI203) |
| Leadframe on silicone insulator |
| Surface Mount Technology (SMT) |
