How to deal with megapillar challenges in high density fan-out wafer-level packaging (FOWLP).
As integrated circuit designers bring more sophisticated chip functionality into smaller spaces, heterogeneous integration, including 3D stacking of devices, becomes an increasingly useful and cost-effective way of mixing and connecting various functional technologies. One of the heterogeneous integration platforms gaining increased acceptance is high density fan-out wafer-level packaging (FOWLP). Primary advantages for this packaging solution include substrate-less package, lower thermal resistance, and enhanced electrical performance. It is an example of more-than-Moore processing, where technologies other than pure Moore’s Law scaling help to provide greater integration and favorable economics.
