The universal design matches with a wide range of sockets and most units are electrically and mechanically compatible and interchangeable.

    Comet's advanced Vacuum Capacitor technologies:

    Universal Motorized Capacitor

    Motorized Capacitors are the ideal solution for high-precision operation. Besides ensuring highest accuracy, capacitors with integrated drive system simplify procurement with an easy-to-install subsystem. The core component of the Universal Motorized Capacitor is a Comet variable vacuum capacitor, which includes an insulating cover, coupler and stepper-motor to drive the capacitor. A durable, backlash-free coupler connects the capacitor to the drive system. Assembled flanges ensure easy mounting in the system. Appropriate high-voltage insulation between the capacitor and the mounting flanges is also included.

    Vacuum Capacitor with hybrid-cooling technology

    Comet hybrid-cooling technology has been developed as an extension of the well-known Hexa-Con product range. The first hybrid-cooled, small size capacitor series offers users the best of both worlds: the compact size allows the use of higher power within the same matchbox size, and users profit from reduced total cost of ownership at the same time. When comparing diameter versus power density, the Hexa-Con series with hybrid-cooling technology is best in class.

    XtraVolt Vacuum Capacitors for low frequency applications

    With the XtraVolt low frequency vacuum capacitor product range Comet meets these needs with higher voltage capability compared to standard products. This allows significant higher voltage in a compact size vacuum capacitor keeping the same form factor. The new XtraVolt low frequency vacuum capacitors with higher field strength capability can achieve higher voltage. This allows increased RF current capability and higher power density.

  • NEW: Tetra-Con Vacuum Capacitor series
    The semiconductor industry needs vacuum capacitors with higher voltage, higher capacitance in compact size. High power is a key requirement especially for power intensive etch applications....

  • Reduce the footprint and allow efficient use of matchbox space: Comet developed Tetra-Con, a new variable Vacuum Capacitor series, to reduce the footprint and allow efficient use of matchbox space and to provide increased design flexibility. Size-wise, the new Tetra-Con product family fits between the popular Hexa-Con and the Maxi-Con series and has wide capacitance range up to 2500 pF. Tetra-Con is also available with XtraVolt for even higher voltage at low frequency applications.
  • Comet Yxlon Cheetah EVO X-ray and CT system
    Semicon inspections: maximum resolution at minimum voltage...

  • Electronic components and semiconductor devices are the key elements of most electronic systems. Due to their compactness and density, testing requires image resolution at low power and low voltage. Void compilations, incl. multi-area voiding, need accurate and repeatable inspection routines. The Cheetah EVO offers:

    • Highly sensitive detector with optional low dosage mode
    • High detail recognition through an integrated image chain
    • Integrated automated defect detection and analysis (e.g. voids in bumps, THT fill level)
    • High-detail resolution laminography for inspecting the internal connections of state-of-the-art advanced packaging IC devices

    By implementing the X-ray and CT inspection with Cheetah EVO into R&D and production processes, semiconductor manufacturers enhance quality, improve efficiency and increase yield.

    Semiconductor applications:

    • Wafers and integrated circuits (die attach connections, 3D IC joints, TSV)
    • Sensors
    • MEMS and MOEMS
