Exploring Originality -What does it Really Mean to be Innovative? -

SSM has created an entire series of original products, in the field of electronic components, derived from our innovative thin film core technology. For example, SSM's chip resistors which offer superior performance, quality and low current noise.

All these efforts and accomplishments reflect SSM's attitude toward today's society. If something is good, no matter what it is, we work to bring it into more general use. Furthermore, SSM is not content to simply rest on the originality of our proprietary, state of the art, products. We transcend originality in to our on going efforts to create new markets, which means making possible new ways of living for everyone. this is because, at SSM, we have confidence and pride in our technological ability to transform ideas into reality.

Originality of Technology -The Miracle of Combination-

SSM technology can be generally classified into the following four types:

1. Advanced Film Deposition
   Plasma Assisted Chemical Vapor Deposition, Ion Plating, Sputtering, Evaporation etc.
2. Fine Pattern Photolithography
   Flat Surface, Round Surface
3. Micro Laser Technology
   Pattern Generation, Trimming, Scribing etc.
4. High-Density Packaging Technology
   BGA Resistor Modules, Micro-size Chip Resistors etc.

We have achieved a high level of sophistication with each of these core technologies, but our advanced film deposition, in particular, is reinforced by our commitment to long-term basic research.

SSM takes its greatest pride in the fact that we combine our four core technologies to achieve a higher level of existence. SSM works to create an organic synthesis while improving each element of the core.

Originality of Products -Almost too Attractive-

SSM's products are electronics components. Today's requirements for electronics components are for high performance, quality, value and functionality (light weight, compact packaging). These characteristics are also desirable because they reduce the consumption of energy and resources for information processing.

SSM's electronics components are all composed of either organic, or inorganic thin films because we believe this is the optimal way to handle key problems in electronics circuit design and packaging. SSM products fully utilize the attractive features of thin films, offering the highest possible Quality,Performance and Value.

Expanding Originality -Expanding Your Imagination with Thin Films-

Today we are seeing a growing range of requirements for thin film electronics components and for thin films themselves. Without doubt, the current production volume of thin film electronics components is small. But we are entering a new electronics era, when thin films will no longer be viewed as something out of the ordinary.

SSM is expanding its production and sales bases in order to respond to these new requirements in the market, and to fulfill the role SSM first assumed as the pioneer in expanding the demand for thin films.

People expect SSM electronics components to exploit the unique characteristics of thin films flawlessly. We encourage anyone to contact us who are interesting in utilizing SSM's components and the knowledge of advanced thin film technology. And do so, especially, if you require a truly innovative type of product which has never been thought of before.

At SSM, we are ready to utilize our thin film technology to propose a solution, a components, you might only have imagined.
