Choon Lee, chief technology officer of JCET, sat down with Semiconductor Engineering to talk about the semiconductor market, Moore’s Law, chiplets, fan-out packaging, and manufacturing issues. What follows are excerpts of that discussion. SE: Where are we in the semiconductor cycle right now? Lee: If you look at 2020, it was around 10% growth in the overall semiconductor industry. ... » read more

New RDL-First PoP Fan-Out Wafer-Level Package Process With Chip-to-Wafer Bonding Technology

By Amkor - 16 Dec, 2020 - Comments: 0

Fan-Out Wafer-Level Interposer Package-on Package (PoP) design has many advantages for mobile applications such as low power consumption, short signal path, small form factor, and heterogeneous integration for multifunctions. In addition, it can be applied in various package platforms, including PoP, System-in-Package (SiP), and Chip Scale Package (CSP). These advantages come from advanced inte... » read more

Sacrificial Laser Release Materials For RDL-First Fan-Out Packaging

By Brewer Science - 11 Jun, 2018 - Comments: 0

The semiconductor industry is in a new age where device scaling will not continue to provide the cost reductions or performance improvements at a similar rate to past years when Moore’s law was the guiding principle for IC scaling. The cost of scaling below 7 nm nodes is rising substantially and requires significant investment in capital equipment and R&D spending for next-generation lithogra... » read more
