Silicon photonics packaging now carries up to half the product value. A perfect chip means nothing if the assembly around it fails. Where processes break on the way to production, and what it takes to scale.
Implantable BCIs are pushing the limits of precision die bonding and advanced packaging. Explore the assembly challenges behind this emerging technology and the processes needed to turn prototypes into reliable medical devices.
Avoid restarting development when scaling die bonding. Build stable, transferable processes early to reduce risk and achieve consistent yield from prototype to production.
Follow the ongoing development of our next-generation production die bonder for high-mix manufacturing. This tracker collects the latest updates, engineering milestones, and insights as the platform advances with 12-inch readiness to support advanced semiconductor, photonic, and heterogeneous integration assemblies at scale.
As advanced packaging moves toward wafer level and higher integration density, production stability is becoming a defining capability for manufacturers scaling complex assemblies beyond R&D into reliable volume production.
Bond quality is decided before bonding even begins. In advanced packaging, surface condition often limits yield and reliability more than placement accuracy. Plasma treatment prepares clean, stable interfaces immediately before bonding, reducing variability and improving bonding reliability.
As MEMS devices are increasingly integrated with ASICs, optics and other components, assembly becomes a defining factor for performance, yield and reliability. This article explores current trends and requirements in MEMS assembly for advanced device integration.
Ultrasonic die bonding is gaining relevance as devices grow smaller, more sensitive and increasingly diverse in their material makeup. Its speed, cleanliness and low-stress processing make it a strong fit for advanced electronics, photonics and long-lifetime applications.
Chiplets are driving real products in AI, data centers, photonics, and automotive. System-in-package designs now combine logic, memory, RF, photonics, and sensors in one module. But as architectures diversify, precision in placement and bonding becomes the real differentiator. In today’s chiplet era, performance is won—or lost—at the package.
