Packaging Biz Faces Challenges in 2019
By Mark LaPedus - 10 Dec, 2018 - Comments: 0

The IC packaging industry is bracing for slower growth, if not uncertainty, in 2019, even though advanced packaging remains a bright spot in the market. Generally, IC packaging houses saw strong demand in the first part of 2018, but the market cooled in the second half of the year due to a slowdown in memory. Going forward, the slower IC packaging market is expected to extend into the first ... » read more

Semiconductor Engineering sat down to discuss advanced packaging with David Butler, executive vice president and general manager of SPTS Technologies; Ingu Yin Chang, senior vice president president at ASE Group; Hubert Karl Lakner, executive director of the Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems; Robert Lo, division director for electronics and optoelectronics research at Industrial Te... » read more

The Financial Justification For System-Level Test
By Astronics - 23 Jul, 2018 - Comments: 0

Three unique trends are currently transforming high-volume manufacturing in the semiconductor industry: The increasing complexity of chip architectures (e.g., FinFET, heterogeneous integration); The explosion in the breadth and ubiquity of consumer electronics (e.g. IoT, mobile, and automotive), and Consumer expectations of a constant stream of newer, cheaper, more advanced nodes. ... » read more

Tech Talk: Shrink Vs. Package
By Ed Sperling - 10 May, 2018 - Comments: 0

Andy Heinig, group manager for system integration at Fraunhofer EAS, talks about the tradeoffs between planar design and advanced packaging, including different types of interposers, chiplets and thermal issues. https://youtu.be/1BDqgCujJno » read more

Tech Talk: EM Crosstalk
By Ed Sperling - 14 Dec, 2017 - Comments: 0

Anand Raman, senior director at Helic, talks about the impact of electromagnetic interference on digital design at 10/7nm and beyond. Once confined to the analog space, noise is suddenly an issue at advanced nodes for all designs. At the root of the problem are smaller nodes, increased speed and higher levels of integration. https://youtu.be/hzZqK2lNJNQ » read more

Getting Power Management Right
By Ann Mutschler - 14 Nov, 2017 - Comments: 0

Getting power management right in the era of heterogeneous SoCs is a multi-pronged effort, there's no getting around it. Engineering teams daily try to squeeze more and more power from their designs, which many times includes adding human resources and expertise to the project. Take an example where a design team leader gets the mandate to include high level synthesis in the design metho... » read more

DARPA CHIPS Program Pushes For Chiplets
By Ann Mutschler - 14 Sep, 2017 - Comments: 0

While the semiconductor industry plugs away at More Than Moore innovation, the U.S. government is guiding its own SoC development. A new program kicked off last year called ‘Common Heterogeneous Integration and IP Reuse Strategies’ or CHIPS to take its own approach the incredibly high cost of SoC design and manufacturing. DARPA said it recognizes that the explosive growth in mobile and t... » read more
