3D IC Adoption: What’s it going to Take?

If, as we heard at last week’s 3D IC Forum at SEMICON Singapore, that technology challenges and cost are no longer keeping 3D ICs from volume manufacturing, and indeed the key players are ready to go, then what’s it going to take to get this 3D IC adoption party started?...

NANIUM Extends eWLB to Achieve Higher Reliability

NANIUM S.A. has introduced an improved dielectric material and process solution for its fan-out wafer-level packaging (FOWLP) technology, embedded wafer-level ball grid array (eWLB). These improvements increase eWLB’s reliability, thereby extending the existing technology platform into more demanding markets and applications including medical devices, aerospace and automotive, among others. The...

The Transition to 450mm Wafers: What does it Mean for 3D ICs?

There’s been lots of news lately about the transition to 450mm wafers, and I’m wondering, is it only me, or are there others who are amazed at how little mention there is on its impact in the assembly and packaging world. It’s like the front-end has forgotten that the back-end...
