New Approaches To Power Decoupling

Decoupling capacitors have long been an important aspect of maintaining a clean power source for integrated circuits, but with noise caused by rising clock frequencies, multiple power domains, and various types of advanced packaging, new approaches are needed. In...

Emerging Technologies Driving Heterogeneous Integration

As chips are disaggregated into chiplets, more features are being added into these devices that chipmakers were unable to include in the past due to reticle size limits and the high cost of scaling everything to the latest process node. This has opened the door to new...

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...
