40-Pin Ceramic Quad Flat Package (CQFP) for Optical and RF Modules
Product Overview
The 40-Pin Ceramic Quad Flat Package (CQFP) is a high-density, surface-mount solution for complex integrated circuits and multi-chip modules. As a premier example of advanced Ceramic IC Packaging, the CQFP provides a hermetically sealed cavity to protect sensitive semiconductor devices while offering a high number of I/O connections in a compact footprint. The gull-wing leads provide compliant connections to the printed circuit board, absorbing thermal stress and ensuring a reliable solder joint. This package is ideal for mixed-signal, RF, and optical applications where performance, density, and reliability are paramount.
