dielectric [di′elek′trik] 1 adj, transmitting electric effects by induction, but not by conduction. The term is applied to an insulating substance through or across which electric force is acting or may act by induction without conduction. 2 n, an insulating substance that transmits in this way, i.e., through or across which electric force is acting or may act by induction without conduction. dielectric said of an insulating substance through which an electric force acts by induction but not conduction.

By utilizing a sapphire substrate, which is a near-perfect insulator, UltraCMOS wafers enjoy low defect density for simpler construction; dielectrically isolated transistors for excellent power handling and multiple thresholds; and inherent CMOS logic levels. The devices in HV7 are dielectrically isolated, increasing packing density and drastically reducing device cross-talk, which ultimately produces a smaller, lower cost and higher performance die than if traditional junction isolated techniques were used. Legerity ICs manufactured on the 170V, silicon-on-insulator (SOI), dielectrically isolated HV7 process are able to handle the high voltages required for voice communications and ring generation, as well as support the higher frequencies needed for ADSL data transmission. |
