Once considered to be one of the simpler tasks in semiconductor device manufacturing, IC package design has become more complicated as it becomes more critical to the performance of the end-devices. Market drivers are more varied than ever. Time-to-market is more critical than ever. And advanced packaging options are more numerous...
The remaining two days of SEMI’s ISS 2018 dawned foggy and damp, making it a heck of a lot easier to head to the ballroom for a day and half full of inspiring talks versus ditching it all to answer the call of the pounding surf (I grew up on...
For several years now, Herb Reiter, eda2asic, and John Ferguson, Mentor Graphics, have been evangelizing about the necessity of assembly design kits (ADK), similar to the process design kits (PDKs) for chip designers, to help drive ecosystem capabilities for what is collectively now being called high density advanced packaging (HDAP),...

Last time I checked in with Kim Pollard, Technology Manager, Dynaloy, was a few years ago, when we talked about the importance of cleans for 3D ICs. Dynaloy, a subsidiary of Eastman Chemical Company, develops and creates chemistries specifically for the removal of photoresist, etch residues and other polymers. At...
For years, we’ve been talking about the performance and power benefits of 2.5D and 3D ICs. We’ve also been talking about the remaining challenges, and have steadily ticked off the technology-related ones. The “elephant-in-the-room” has been, and continues to be cost. But based on the messages of some key industry...
