NATEL offers Krypton-85 radioisotope leak testing for environmental screening

CHATSWORTH, USA: NATEL, a leading microelectronics solutions company, now offers reliable Krypton-85 radioisotope leak testing, an advanced technology used to detect the unforeseen defects in sealed hybrids and MCMs.

NATEL offers Krypton-85 screening with the industry-leading Radiflo Mark VI pressurization unit. It meets the latest military standard 750 1071.10 and 883 1014.14. The test chamber, with dimensions of 6 inches by 20 inches, can apply pressures of up to 110 psia, for testing hermetically sealed packages.

NATEL's Krypton-85 radioisotope testing capability is currently bringing solutions to our customers by eliminating risks and reducing potential latent failures. A previous outside service provider to NATEL on a missile program had difficulties, and NATEL stepped in to add in-house radiation leak testing capabilities. The manufactured parts passed evaluation and on-schedule shipments resumed.
