IFTLE 581: The National Advanced Packaging Manufacturing Program

As IFTLE has explained previously, Investments in semiconductors will not succeed without investments in advanced packaging. The CHIPS for America program, agreeing with this premise, has announced that it will support the development of advanced packaging technology in the United States that can be transferred to manufacturing facilities, including recipients...

IFTLE 480 : Wafer Thinning and Nano TSVs; Making Money on the Leading Edge

Wafer Thinning and Nano TSVs In the last few years, Ann Jourdain of IMEC and co-workers have described silicon device stacking through extreme silicon thinning technology. Recently Jourdan and Dave Thomas of SPTS reviewed this technology for the Jan/Feb issue of Chip Scale Review. The technology is interesting enough that...

IFTLE 465: Intel Reviews Leading-Edge Packaging Technology

In recent blogs, we have discussed the damage done to Intel’s leading-edge technology reputation by major delays in both their 10nm and 7nm product introductions [ see IFTLE 458]. We have also seen them try to put a positive spin on the fact that they may have to go external...

EV Group Unveils Next-Gen Fusion Wafer Bonder for “More Moore” Scaling and Front-End Processing

EV Group (EVG), a leading supplier of wafer bonding and lithography equipment for the MEMS, nanotechnology and semiconductor markets, today introduced the all-new BONDSCALE™ automated production fusion bonding system. BONDSCALE is designed to fulfill a wide range of fusion/molecular wafer bonding applications, including engineered substrate manufacturing and 3D integration approaches...

Fine Tuning Processes for TSV Reveal

Through silicon via (TSV) reveal is a critical part of the wafer-thinning step in 3D IC backside processing, where the wafer is thinned to expose the Cu “nails” that ultimately form the interconnect between die stacks. Some of the risks involved in this step include backside contamination (Cu diffusion) due...

SSEC: Innovators in Single Wafer Wet Processing Tools

49 years ago, Solid State Equipment, LLC (SSEC) opened its doors with its first piece of semiconductor equipment; a seam sealer for welding the lid on hermetic packages. Today, that tool still exists, and although it now accounts for 1% of SSEC’s revenue instead of 50%, sales have remained constant...

Advanced Packaging at SEMICON West

Generation Mobile, “Thin is In” and More Advanced packaging technology is undergoing dramatic changes as the smart phones and new sensor technologies demand continued improvements in form and function. To address these massive changes, SEMICON West will feature a number of programs on new packaging technologies and processes with speakers...
