The Research Initiative on Silicon Hybrids (RISH), is one of several National Electronics Research Initiatives created under the auspices of the UK Department of Trade and Industry. Its aims are to investigate the merits of silicon hybrids, evaluate their performance and develop the technology necessary for their implementation. The paper describes the design and fabrication of silicon hybrids using thin film metal-polyimide interconnect. Several chip attach options are considered. The merits of the technology are illustrated using functional circuit demonstrators.
