Picking up the Pace of Panel-level Advanced Packaging at Onto Innovation

How A Collaborative Partnership Is Accelerating PLP Innovation Panel-level advanced packaging technologies have been in development for more than a decade. They began as a way to reduce costs and improve yields for fan-out wafer-level applications. Smartphone applications – particularly fingerprint sensors – promised the volumes that would make the...

Making The Right Connections

Managing the System-level Netlist and Its Exceptions in 3D ICs 3D IC is a growing semiconductor technology that pushes the limits of single-die designs. Splitting a large die into multiple smaller dies has proven to provide an acceptable yield and reify the era of chiplets, which has elevated IP reuse...

Wafer Bonding and NanoCleave: The New Lithography Scaling

NanoCleave enables Laser Debonding on Silicon with Nanometer Precision In semiconductor manufacturing, 3D integration – the manufacturing, vertical assembly, and packaging of multiple different dies into a single package – is increasingly important in optimizing the power, performance, area, and cost (PPAC) metric in semiconductor design and manufacturing, as well...

TechSearch International Analysis Predicts Growth for Fan-in WLP and FO-WLP

TechSearch International predicts strong market growth for fan-in wafer level packages (WLPs) and fan-out WLPs (FO-WLPs).  Despite lower growth for smartphones, growth continues as the number of WLPs per handset increase. WLPs are increasingly adopted in tablets, and wearable devices such as smartwatches, fitness bands, and virtual reality headsets. Fan-in...

IFTLE 403: TSMC 4th Generation CoWoS; 2018 Singapore EPTC Part 1

Heterogeneous Integration spurs demand for 3D backend solutions Julian Ho reported in the Jan 10th issue of Digitimes that heterogeneous integration of diverse semiconductor components to support 5G, AI, automotive electronics, and IoT applications is gaining significant momentum, driving demand for system-in-package (SiP) and system-on-3D package (So3D) processes and boosting the...

Are Glass Substrates the Next Option for Fan-out Packaging?

As you all may know, in most fan-out wafer level packages (FOWLP) such as embedded wafer level ball grid array (eWLB) by Infineon and STATS ChipPAC, and TSMC’s integrated fan out (InFO), the chip(s) are embedded in epoxy molding compound (EMC). Additionally, in some fan-out panel-level packaging (FOPLP) such as those being...

Discussing Panel Scale Packaging at SEMI’s Northeast Forum

SEMI did a great job at SEMICON West 2016 organizing a bursting-at-the-seams amount of technical content presented on the show floor, content that included (pleasant surprise) a full track devoted to advanced packaging topics. Definitely not business as usual. The distinction between where fab processes end and where packaging processes...

ECTC 2015: Advanced Packaging Sets Sail in San Diego

The 65th annual Electronics Technology Components Conference (ECTC 2015) logged record numbers (over 1500 attendees, 20% increase over last year) as the entire semiconductor industry recognizes (finally) that there is indeed money to be made in the advanced packaging sector. The flip chip and wafer level packaging sessions were full to...
