Hybrid Bonding: The Time has Come

The growing demand for semiconductors, from the cloud to the edge, from artificial intelligence (AI) to 5G communications, has exceeded the capabilities of traditional silicon scaling. In the “More than Moore” era, performance requirements for leading-edge semiconductor devices demand extremely fine pitch (<10µm, or even <1µm) interconnection in semiconductor packaging...

IFTLE 528: 72nd IEEE ECTC: A Showcase for Hybrid Bonding

The 72nd IEEE Electronic Components and Technology Conference (ECTC) took place at the end of May in San Diego CA. We all know by now that ECTC is the premier microelectronic packaging conference in the world. While I was not able to attend in person, it was NOT due to...

Social Distancing Spotlight: A DBI Ultra Update

Last year at ECTC 2019, Xperi officially launched DBI Ultra™; the die-to-wafer hybrid bonding version of the highly successful, wafer-to-wafer DBI. Excited to celebrate this momentous occasion with them, I even wore the Xperi logo for the photo. Here we are a year later, and although I won’t have the...

Convergence on the “Big Five”: Focus on MEMS Packaging

Part three of a five-part series In the first two parts of this series, we focused on low-cost flip chip and wafer-level chip scale packages (WLCSP), identifying them as two advanced packaging platforms we consider to be among the “Big Five.” It is our belief at Amkor that convergence into...

With 3D Memory Cubes You Can Finally Break Down the Dreaded Memory Wall

In July and August schools are closed and many people like to take vacation. Typically nothing major happens during these months. Not this year! It was a lively August, if you consider the recent “adjustments” in the stock markets worldwide as a series of events disrupting the summer doldrums. But...

EV Group Receives 3D InCites Award for Gemini FB XT Automated Fusion Wafer Bonder

ST. FLORIAN, Austria, July 30, 2015—EV Group (EVG), a leading supplier of wafer bonding and lithography equipment for the MEMS, nanotechnology and semiconductor markets, today announced that it has received a 2015 3D InCites Award for its GEMINI®FB XT automated fusion wafer bonder in the category of 3D manufacturing equipment....

Moore’s Law and More Than Moore Are Laws Of Economics: 3D IC At The 25th Annual SEMI ASMC

Saratoga Springs, NY, rolled out the red carpet the week of 19 May 2014 for the 320+ attendees, speakers, panelists, and journalists who participated in the 25th Annual SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference. Conference co-chairs Israel Ne’eman, Applied Material, and Oliver Patterson, IBM Microelectronics, presided over a group of talented...

Mitsubishi Throws its Hat in the 300mm Wafer Bonding Ring

Earlier this week, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, Ltd. announced it had “developed the world's first fully automated 12-inch (300 millimeters) wafer bonding machine, capable of producing 3-dimensionally integrated LSI (large-scale integration) circuits at room temperature.” This tool is targeted to the MEMS, 3D LSI's, and the RF market. I was skeptical...
