About 3D InCites

Integration is the KEY

  • “The word “Integration” not only refers to the technical process of integrating but also to the integration of people and their knowledge.” Erik Jan Marinissen, imec
  • “Your blog is part of the solution.  It is the education component that is critical to lowering any adoption barrier, spreading knowledge and ideas to anyone considering 3D and TSVs.” Bill Martin, E-System Design

The 3D InCites Community was established in 2009 to stir up interest in 3D integration. Now in its 13th year, 3D InCites has broadened its scope to stir up interest in heterogeneous integration. As such, 3D InCites is about much more than just through silicon vias and subsequent stacking technologies. Rather, 3D InCites has become part of the whole advanced packaging conversation as it relates to heterogeneous integration, the Internet of things, and other applications these technologies enable. The goal is to inform key decision-makers about progress in technology development, design,  standards, infrastructure, and implementation.

As a community, 3D InCites brings to life the people, the personalities, and the minds behind heterogeneous integration and related technologies in a uniquely personal way. As the interests and concerns of our community expand, so do our areas of coverage. That’s why in 2021, we added efforts to build awareness around the importance of sustainable semiconductor manufacturing, and diversity equity and inclusion in the workplace. Our goal is to support the efforts of our community members.

Featuring Francoise in 3D

Françoise von Trapp is known throughout the semiconductor and microelectronics industries as the “Queen of 3D” for founding 3D InCites and influencing the course of semiconductor device packaging technologies. As Editorial Director of 3D InCites, she represents the community as an industry podcaster and blogger, covering symposia and conferences, participating in trade shows, and moderating panels and webinars. Concurrent with her role at 3D InCites, Françoise served as content and creative director at Kiterocket until April of 2023. She now focuses full-time on serving the 3D InCites community. Before founding 3D InCites, Françoise was Managing Editor of Advanced Packaging Magazine and a contributor to Chip Scale Review
