Trends in Semiconductor Manufacturing: Wafer-Level Packaging

One of the hottest trends in semiconductor manufacturing today is wafer-level packaging (WLP). According to Allied Market Research, the global WLP market size is expected to reach $7.8 billion by 2022, registering a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 21.5% from 2016 to 2022. Broadly defined, WLP encompasses different integration...

Unisem Advanced Technologies Selects Two Veeco Tools to Support Expansion of Fan-Out Wafer-Level Packaging Portfolio

Veeco’s WaferStorm® Platform and AP300™ Lithography System Deliver Premier Process Performance, Platform Flexibility and Low Cost of Ownership PLAINVIEW, New York,  — Veeco Instruments Inc.

A Look at imec’s Two-Step Wafer-level Mold Process

The recipient of the 2019 3D InCites Award for Process of the Year was Belgian research institute, imec, for its two-step wafer-level transfer mold process for 3D die-to-wafer assembly. The individual who nominated them for the award didn’t provide any more detail than that. But luckily at ECTC 2019, when...

Talking Nerdy with Exhibitors at IWLPC 2018

With heterogeneous integration, 3D, and advanced wafer-level packaging technologies officially declared the rising stars of the semiconductor industry, materials, process and equipment suppliers have pulled out their shiniest bells and whistles. Here’s a sampling of news and products that were on display at IWLCP 2018, October 23-25, 2018 at the...

3D Systems-on-Chip: Clever Circuit Partitioning To Extend Moore’s Law

In recent years, the technology of 3D integration has evolved into an economically interesting road. In particular, the technology is used to package the CMOS imagers you find in your smartphone, the high-bandwidth DRAM memory stacks used in high-end computing, as well as in advanced graphics cards. 3D integration allows...

MEMS Ascendant at IMAPS Device Packaging 2017

Semiconductor device fabrication and packaging is rife with acronyms, and by my estimate, the Top 3 trafficked by speakers at the recent IMAPS Device Packaging Conference were the acronyms FOWLP, FOPLP, and MEMS. That would be fan-out wafer level packaging, fan-out panel level packaging, and microelectromechanical systems, respectively. It wasn’t...

Addressing Advanced Packaging Challenges in 2017 and Beyond

As the two-dimensional (2D) shrinking of planar circuits (on which Gordon Moore based his famous observation) has become more difficult and expensive, the semiconductor industry has had to find other ways to continue to put more computing power and speed into less volume. At the same time, consumers are demanding...
