Rapidus and IBM Expand Collaboration to Chiplet Packaging Technology for 2nm Semiconductors

Now There Are Four

(2nm semiconductor manufacturing foundries) UMC started the semiconductor manufacturing foundry business in 1980, followed a few years later by TSMC. You could say the rest is history. TSMC has come to dominate the foundry industry for wafer processing and advanced packaging. TSMC has a 62% market share in the second...

How Can We Tap into $52 Billion to Reshore Advanced Packaging?

One of the things that are missing from virtual events is the candid conversations we engage in when we meet up with industry colleagues in the halls and cocktail receptions at in-person events. In a way, that’s the tone we’re trying to capture in the conversations we have on the...

IFTLE 487: Yole Développement Reviews the Advanced Packaging Market      

Vaibhav Trivedi of Yole Développement gave an outlook for the advanced packaging market with a focus on 3DIC. The semiconductor market declined 12% YoY to reach $412B in 2019. In 2020 the market grew slightly despite the pandemic to about $439B. Yole expects 2021 to be another slight growth year (Figure...

Temporary Wafer Bonding System Is Based On Electrostatics, Not Adhesives

Temporary wafer bonding is widely employed in semiconductor device fabrication and in semiconductor device packaging applications, particularly now that changes in the Z dimension are calling for thinner and thinner silicon devices, and thinner and thinner packaged devices. This means that wafers and singulated die must be supported through parts...

Has Google Discovered the Advantages of Advanced IC Packaging Technologies?

Chauhan, Technical Program Manager for Data Center Quality, presented her perspectives on the benefits and challenges of advanced IC packaging technologies. Considering that Alphabet, Google’s parent company, controls about...

IFTLE 434: Process Optimization for a Reliable NXP FOWLP Microcontroller

There are several different fan-out wafer-level packaging (FOWLP) technologies that are currently in high-volume production. The traditional fan-out (FO) technology as initially developed by Motorola and Infineon was a face down, die-first technology that has been in volume production for low-end baseband, PMIC, Codec, Wi-Fi, RF kind of applications since...
