A Production-Worthy Fan-Out Solution — ASE FOCoS Chip Last

By ASE - 16 Dec, 2020 - Comments: 0

The 5th Generation (5G) wireless systems popularity will push the package development into a high performance and heterogeneous integration form. For high I/O density and high performance packages, the promising Fan Out Chip on Substrate (FOCoS) provides a solution to match outsourced semiconductor assembly and testing (OSAT) capability. FOCoS is identified the Fan Out (FO) package, which can f... » read more

What’s Next In Advanced Packaging
