CUSTOM CAPABILITIES

CUSTOM DESIGN
With extensive experience in every facet of high-reliability power management design, IR’s team of experts stand ready to design custom modules to meet the most critical thermal, mechanical and environmental specifications. An automated design review process provides thermal and mechanical modeling throughout concept and production phases. Whether your design is at the conceptual stage or production ready, it will go through extensive engineering review to insure flawless operation when it matters most. The end result will be a proposal that outlines all specific key electrical and mechanical specifications required to accomplish the task.

DESIGN AND ASSEMBLY OPERATIONS
International Rectifier’s custom design and manufacturing services are performed at its state-of-the-art 68,000 SF facility in Leominster, MA. The facility contains 7,000 SF of manufacturing floor space for SMT assembly, a 10,000 SF class 100,000 area for test and finishing, and a 20,000 SF Class 10,000 cleanroom where die, packaging, and hybrid assembly are performed. Space level DC-DC converters are designed and manufactured in our 45,265 SF facility in Santa Clara, California.

DESIGN ANALYSIS AND DOCUMENTATION
IR’s design process ensures manufacturing success. Our strong team of electrical, mechanical, and CAD engineers are veteran designers for high-reliability applications. They take into account design factors that will allow for success in manufacturing both prototypes and volume ramps.

The AutoCAD® platform is our primary method of layout which allows us to accept customer inputs produced on many other software platforms. All design data is stored and backed up on a secure, internal IT network as well as data storage facility offsite for added security.

We utilize Keyfile® for documentation storage. Our document system is controlled via an engineering change order / control method.

In addition to our standard design and production capabilities, we have the ability to take specific customer schematics, turn them into a layout, generate a prototype, and then release the product to manufacturing in instances where some of the design work already is in place.
