In a deal that will generate economical new process options for the 3D integration market, Alchimer S.A., a provider of nanometric deposition technology for semiconductor interconnects and through-silicon vias (TSV), and KPM Tech Co. Ltd., a manufacturer of plating materials and systems, announced a multi-level collaboration that gives KPM Tech exclusive rights to produce chemicals in Korea for Alchimer’s technology. The agreement also includes the manufacture of various configurations of wet processing tools to support the Alchimer TSV platform.
The Surface Mount Technology Association (SMTA) will host two 90-minute online sessions with Bob Willis, ASKbobwillis.com, on package-on-package (PoP) applications and implementation. The Webtorials will take place February 4 and February 11, 2010 from 1:00 to 2:30 pm EST.
Allvia says it has completed integration and full reliability testing of a silicon interposer between a semiconductor die and an organic or ceramic substrate.
Nagesh Vodrahalli, VP of technology & manufacturing at Allvia, discussed some of the issues in developing through-silicon via (TSV) technologies with Solid State Technology/Advanced Packaging in conjunction with his presentation at the recent 3-D Architectures for Semiconductor Integration and Packaging conference.
Samsung Electronics has developed the world’s thinnest multi-die package, one that measures 0.6mm in height. Designed initially for 32 gigabyte (GB) densities, the new memory package is just half the thickness of a conventional memory package of eight stacked chips (or dies). The advanced packaging technology delivers a 40 percent thinner and lighter memory solution for high-density multimedia handsets and other mobile devices, according to the company.
