Chip-Last HDFO (High-Density Fan-Out) Interposer-PoP
By Amkor - 17 Feb, 2022 - Comments: 0

Interposer Package-on-Package (PoP) technology was developed and has been in very high-volume production over the last several years for high-end mobile application processors (APs). This is due to its advantages of good package design flexibility, controllable package warpage at room temperature (25°C) and high temperature (260°C), reduced assembly manufacturing cycle time and chip-last asse... » read more

Next-Gen 3D Chip/Packaging Race Begins
By Mark LaPedus - 31 Jan, 2022 - Comments: 5

The first wave of chips is hitting the market using a technology called hybrid bonding, setting the stage for a new and competitive era of 3D-based chip products and advanced packages. AMD is the first vendor to unveil chips using copper hybrid bonding, an advanced die-stacking technology that enables next-generation 3D-like devices and packages. Hybrid bonding stacks and connects chips usin... » read more

Thin Quad Die Package (QDP) Development
By Shaun Bowers - 20 Jan, 2022 - Comments: 0

In the world of solid-state memory fabs, bits per mm2 rule. In the memory packaging market, mm2 of silicon per a given package thickness is the defining feature. Both the memory architecture of the wafer and the package technology take advantage of 3D structures to achieve best in class bit density. In the case of the wafer fab, 3D NAND and other technologies are pushing the envelope to meet ev... » read more

Metal Thermal Interface Material For The Next Generation FCBGA
By Amkor - 19 Jan, 2022 - Comments: 0

Thermal interface materials (TIMs) have been widely adopted for improved thermal dissipation in flip chip ball grid array (FCBGA), flip chip lidded ball grid array (FCLGA) and flip chip pin grid array (FCPGA) packaging. As the next generation devices' requirements for power get even higher, enhanced thermal performance at the package level is increasingly important. A typical TIM applies a poly... » read more

Expanding Advanced Packaging Production In The U.S.
By Mark LaPedus - 05 Jan, 2022 - Comments: 0

The United States is taking the first steps toward bringing larger-scale IC packaging production capabilities back to the U.S. as supply chain concerns and trade tensions grow. The U.S. is among the leaders in developing packages, especially new and advanced forms of the technology that promise to shake up the semiconductor landscape. And while the U.S. has several packaging vendors, North A... » read more

Design Process And Methodology For Achieving High-Volume Production Quality For HDFO Packaging
By Ruben Fuentes - 16 Dec, 2021 - Comments: 0

Unlike the traditional system on chip (SoC) design process, which has fully qualified verification methods embodied in the form of process design kits (PDKs), chip design companies and outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) suppliers have typically had no integrated circuit (IC) package co-design sign-off verification process to help ensure that an IC package will meet manufacturabil... » read more

End In Sight For Chip Shortages?
By Mark LaPedus - 18 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 2

The current wave of semiconductor and IC packaging shortages is expected to extend well into 2022, but there are also signs that supply may finally catch up with demand. The same is true for manufacturing capacity, materials and equipment in both the semiconductor and packaging sectors. Nonetheless, after a period of shortages in all segments, the current school of thought is that chip suppl... » read more

The New Technology Solutions For Advanced SiP Devices
By YongJai Seo - 18 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

For many years, System-in-Package (SiP) technology has been a focus for semiconductor packaging to address the ongoing market trend of system integration and size reduction. Today’s increased complexity and higher package density for SiP devices has driven the development of new packaging technologies. In response, compartmental shield technology makes it possible to put several functions int... » read more

Heterogeneous Integration Using Organic Interposer Technology
By Amkor - 17 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

As the costs of advanced node silicon have risen sharply with the 7 and 5-nanometer nodes, advanced packaging is coming to a crossroad where it is no longer fiscally prudent to pack all desired functionality into a single die. While single-die packages will still be around, the high-end market is shifting towards multiple-die packages to reduce overall costs and improve functionality. This shif... » read more

Week In Review: Auto, Security, Pervasive Computing
By SE Staff - 12 Nov, 2021 - Comments: 0

Automotive The U.S. Congress passed an infrastructure bill that includes mandates for the U.S. automobiles to install technology in new vehicles that will stop impaired drivers from driving a vehicle. Sec. 24220, the advanced impaired driving technology section of the bill says the Secretary of Transportation is responsible for coming up with standards after which the auto industry has at the ... » read more
