IFTLE 555: A Closer Look at The Chiplet Market

IFTLE has been updating our readers on the chiplet market and the technology since I served as subject matter expert (SME) for DARPA’s Dan Green who gets credit for developing the CHIPS program (Common Heterogeneous Integration and IP Reuse Strategies) in 2017. At that time the average packaging engineer couldn’t...

IFTLE 515: MIT/ Academia Address U.S. Reshoring

With $52B hovering out there for the U.S. reshoring effort, it is not surprising that anyone and everyone, involved in any way with the industry, is trying to devise a way to get part of the pie. It should also not surprise anyone that academia, who gets much of their...

IEEE IITC 2020 Updates Us on Advanced Interconnect Technology

There are two key components to the ability to continue scaling integrated circuits (ICs): The ability to increase transistor density transistor and keep it functioning properly, and the ability of the interconnect to move the electrons from the transistor to the other ICs, or systems to which the logic chip...

Trymax Semiconductor Equipment BV (Trymax), a global leader in plasma-based equipment and solutions for semiconductor manufacturers, is pleased to announce NIBC Bank as a new strategic financial partner. This partnership will enable Trymax to accelerate new technology developments and scale up its manufacturing capacity. The Dutch merchant bank is providing...

ISS 2019 Continued: Facing New Challenges and Opportunities

Just in case you didn’t have a chance yet to read part 1 of the ISS 2019 blog, covering day 1, it’s posted here. Technology and Manufacturing Trends Day 2 started with a keynote about the magic nanodevices can create, delivered byJo de Boeck, imec’s EVP and chief strategy officer. He emphasized that...

Spotlight on the European MEMS and Sensors Technology Showcase

As it’s difficult to be in two places at one time, I was happy to see that the organizers of the co-located European MEMS and Sensors Summit/Imaging and Sensors Summits made sure two featured tracks —the MEMS and Sensors Technology Showcase and The Imaging Sensors Start-up Pitches — did not...

IWLPC 3D Thursday: The Panel

It’s been a whirlwind of conferences these past few weeks, and as a result, I have attended FOUR panel discussions on 2.5D and 3D related topics. (I already wrote about the 3D Test Workshop Panel – 3D Buzz Hype or Reality. It’s stirred quite a discussion.) The day before I...

3D-IC LinkedIn Group Announces Milestone in Member Subscriptions

The 3D-IC LinkedIn Group announced today that it has reached more than 1,100 members. The discussion forum for 3D Integrated Circuits (3D-ICs) was established in July of 2011. The increasing level of interest shown by the industry in the past few months makes this LinkedIn Group a good opportunity for...

Altatech Semiconductor’s 300 mm CVD System Being Used in 3D IC Pilot Production at ASSID

All Silicon System Integration Dresden (ASSID), a leading-edge microelectronic wafer-level packaging and system integration center operated by the Fraunhofer IZM Institute, has begun pilot-line production of 3D semiconductor devices using a single-wafer, multi-chamber AltaCVD 300 system from Altatech Semiconductor S.A. At Fraunhofer IZM-ASSID’s 970-square-meter cleanroom facility in Dresden, Altatech’s

My Big Fat 3D Obsession

In one of my all-time favorite movies, My Big Fat Greek Wedding, family patriarch, Kosta Portukalo is obsessed with his own culture, “Give me a word, any word, and I will show you how the root of that word is Greek.” I’m starting to feel that way about 3D technologies....
