Issues and Challenges with IC Packaging

Dick Otte, CEO of Promex Industries and QP Technologies, sat down with Semiecosystem to discuss traditional chip scaling, chiplets, mature package types, and reshoring, as well as the issues in packaging for medical devices and compound semiconductors. Read the full...

How Die Dimensions Challenge Assembly Processes

Multi-die assemblies are becoming more common and more complex due to technology advancements and market demands, but differing die dimensions are making this process increasingly challenging. In this Semiconductor Engineering article, Dick Otte, CEO of Promex, shares...

3.5D: The Great Compromise

The semiconductor industry is converging on 3.5D as the next best option in advanced packaging, a hybrid approach that includes stacking logic chiplets and bonding them separately to a substrate shared by other components. In this Semiconductor Engineering article,...

Why Small Fab And Assembly Houses Are Thriving

High-volume products get more than their fair share of attention in the semiconductor world, but most chips don’t fit into that category. While a few huge fabs and offshore assembly and test (OSAT) houses process enormous volumes of chips, small fabs and packaging...
