IMAPS Executive Summit: Advanced Packaging Comes to Silicon Valley

To celebrate the re-boot of Silicon Valley’s IMAPS Chapter, Chair Rozalia Beica, Rapidus, conceptualized and launched – with the help of the local committee and the IMAPS team – the first ever IMAPS Executive Summit. The theme was Advanced Packaging 2025: Market Momentum & Investment Outlook. According to Beica, what...

Will 3D Packaging Extend Moore’s Law?

There is a bit of debate about the role that heterogeneous packaging plays in furthering Moore’s Law. Moore’s Law has historically focused on the number of transistors doubling per unit area. In discussions at IEDM, it appears that the definition is being modified to include the chip stacking that is...

IFTLE 474: EPTC 2020 Highlights; TSMC Packaging in Japan

The annual IEEE Electronics Packaging Technology Conference (EPTC 2020 – Asia’s equivalent to the ECTC) took place virtually in December, instead of in Singapore as originally planned. With most of the world’s packaging being done in Asia, it is always a great source of interesting advanced packaging presentations. Let’s take...

IFTLE 454: TSMC Exhibits Packaging Prowess at Virtual ECTC 2020

I cannot say I enjoyed this year’s COVID 19 version of ECTC 2020, but I guess it was better than nothing. I will leave the discussion of what I would like to see improved in the software package for the organizers. Let’s first take a look at three key papers...

The Truth About Moore’s Law is Revealed at 3D ASIP 2017

I’ve long held the belief that when it comes to reading scholarly works, very few people read the entire paper. At best, they read the title, introduction, and conclusion. At most, they skim the rest. Last week at 3D ASIP 2017, my suspicions were confirmed, when it was revealed by...

The Memory Packaging Market Shows Steady Growth

The memory industry is experiencing a strong growth phase: the total memory market is expected to increase at a ~9% CAGR 2016-2022, reaching about US$135 billion by 2022, with DRAM and NAND constituting almost 95% market share. Moreover, a supply-demand mismatch is pushing memory device asking selling price (ASP), resulting...
