French term
à l’échelle du substrat
French to English
Tech/Engineering
Electronics / Elect Eng
Semiconductor-related patent.
"Une première solution pour encapsuler des microcomposants consiste à réaliser un report de capots, usinés par exemple dans une plaque de silicium, sur le substrat comportant les microcomposants. Ces capots sont soit collés, soit brasés à l’échelle du substrat. Les microcomposants ainsi encapsulés sont ensuite séparés les uns des autres par une découpe du substrat, formant des puces individuelles assemblées ensuite sur des circuits électroniques."
This "échelle" would appear to be an actual object... or is it a very inelegant (surprisingly illiterate?) way of saying "all over the substrate"?

scaffolding
For more info on this, try googling mems devices for as much as you can possibly digest. I would be inclined simply to say "bonded or soldered onto the substrate", though in a very different context, collagen is grown onto a bone "scaffolding".

Note from asker:
| thanks... yes 'scaffolding' is a nice "interpolation" (I'm avoiding the word "guess" given what I already know of your expert knowledge!). I did a bit of googling but nothing conclusive enough... will stick with your "generic" solution I think... |

I too am finding it quite difficult to get my head round this one!
I feel sure it does indeed mean 'scale' (i.e. here pretty small) — but it sounds so odd to express it that way in EN, I was trying to come up with something else that would mean the same thing but sound less awkward.
I'm assuming it means tiny little brazes on a scale commensurate with the small scale of the substrate (onto which many of these are to be fitted).
