Panels, Papers and Discussions

Tuesday, Oct. 6

3:00pm-4:30pm Eastern

Feature Panel Sponsored by Amkor Tehnology

The Future Advanced Packaging Ecosystem: Who Will Be in the Driver’s Seat?

Chair and Moderator:
Jan Vardaman, TechSearch International

Panelists:

Koushik Banerjee, Intel Corp.
Dan Berger, GLOBALFOUNDRIES
Eelco Bergman, ASE
Mike Kelly, Amkor Technology
Khai Nguyen, NVIDIA
Craig Orr, Samsung
Ashkan Seyedi, HPE

As the industry moves to the next silicon nodes, new advanced semiconductor packaging developments are enabling the economic gains that were previously achieved with monolithic silicon scaling.  Co-design of IC and package becomes increasingly important.   The foundry plays an increasingly important role.  Development of a healthy eco-system is critical to providing solutions to meet our industry needs.  This panel will discuss the eco-system, challenges the industry faces, and the roles for the players.

 

1:30pm-2:30pm Eastern

1:00pm-3:00pm Eastern (Tuesday and Thursday)

Professional Development Courses

Course A8:
The Evolution of Flip Chip Package Technology
Mark Gerber, ASE US, Inc.

This PDC course will provide a historical overview and background on the evolution of flip chip packaging as well as short market perspective on this platform. Mobile, Infrastructure, Automotive, High Reliability, Medical and High-Performance Network and Computing all rely on Flip Chip technology to enable their silicon solutions.  Although the use of new technologies such as Fan-Out hold promise for certain applications, flip chip advancements continue to challenge many new technology competitors from a price and reliability perspective and may end up driving hybrid approaches.  Interconnect structure, process flows, materials and package integration process methods for evolving Flip Chip applications will be discussed in detail. Understanding the trade-offs between the different bump structures and package platforms is key in determining the silicon device layout and the type of design rules that can be leveraged for new products. As part of this course, the assembly process details will be discussed and will include Mass Reflow, Thermo-Compression Non-Conductive Paste (TCNCP) bonding and Laser Assisted Bonding. Reliability aspects such as IMC formations and ways to address will also be covered as a key consideration for Interconnect decisions.

 

Wednesday, Oct. 7

Exhibitor Previews

StratEdge Corporation

Optimizing High Power GaN Device Performance With Eutectic Die Attach

StratEdge Corporation, founded in 1992, designs and manufactures high-performance semiconductor packages operating from DC to 63+ GHz as well as provides chip assembly and test services. The company has a complete line of post-fired ceramic and MIL-STD hermetic molded ceramic and ceramic QFN semiconductor packages.

At iMAPS, learn about its new line of packages for the extreme demands of GaN devices and the eutectic die attach process that produces extremely thin, low-void bond lines between the device and package heat sink. StratEdge also provide the same service for die-on-tab. To make an appointment to hear more about the 6 micron thick, AuSn die attach process that produces >96% coverage visit www.stratedge.com/imaps.
