Enthone Publishes Semiconductor Wafer Level Packaging Guide
October 15, 2015 | EnthoneEstimated reading time: 1 minute
Enthone has published a semiconductor wafer level packaging (WLP) guide. The guide describes how key growth drivers have resulted in making WLP chemistry a critical component in helping wafer foundries, OEMs, and IDMs address the ever-changing industry landscape.
The WLP guide provides an overview of how Enthone supports the integration between Front-end wafer fabrication and Back-end assembly processes and discusses:
- WLP growth in demand, complexity, customization
- The importance of chemistries optimized for specific design and tool capabilities
- WLP Six Sigma Applications and R&D; advanced laboratories and manufacturing
- MICROFAB® WLP Processes for copper bump/pillar/post, copper RDL, and TSV
Eric Gongora, Global Director, Enthone Semiconductor Product Marketing said, “By collaborating with leading equipment and materials suppliers, Enthone co-develops advanced chemistries demanded by today’s highly competitive semiconductor market. Our collaborative model accelerates time to market, while aligning with our customers’ technology roadmaps.”

Designer’s Notebook: What Designers Need to Know About Manufacturing, Part 2
04/24/2024 | Vern Solberg -- Column: Designer's NotebookThe printed circuit board (PCB) is the primary base element for providing the interconnect platform for mounting and electrically joining electronic components. When assessing PCB design complexity, first consider the component area and board area ratio. If the surface area for the component interface is restricted, it may justify adopting multilayer or multilayer sequential buildup (SBU) PCB fabrication to enable a more efficient sub-surface circuit interconnect.

Heavy Copper PCBs: Bridging the Gap Between Design and Fabrication, Part 1
04/01/2024 | Yash Sutariya, Saturn Electronics ServicesThey call me Sparky. This is due to my talent for getting shocked by a variety of voltages and because I cannot seem to keep my hands out of power control cabinets. While I do not have the time to throw the knife switch to the off position, that doesn’t stop me from sticking screwdrivers into the fuse boxes. In all honesty, I’m lucky to be alive. Fortunately, I also have a talent for building high-voltage heavy copper circuit boards. Since this is where I spend most of my time, I can guide you through some potential design for manufacturability (DFM) hazards you may encounter with heavy copper design.
Trouble in Your Tank: Supporting IC Substrates and Advanced Packaging, Part 5
03/19/2024 | Michael Carano -- Column: Trouble in Your TankDirect metallization systems based on conductive graphite or carbon dispersion are quickly gaining acceptance worldwide. Indeed, the environmental and productivity gains one can achieve with these processes are outstanding. In today’s highly competitive and litigious environment, direct metallization reduces costs associated with compliance, waste treatment, and legal issues related to chemical exposure. What makes these processes leaders in the direct metallization space?
