Semiconductor packaging has evolved from traditional 1D PCB levels to cutting-edge 3D hybrid bonding at the wafer level, achieving interconnecting pitches as small as single micrometers and over 1000 GB/s bandwidth, according to a recent report from IDTechEx. In the realm of 3D integration, microbump technology continues to advance for achieving smaller pitches, with groundbreaking Cu-Cu connection methods like hybrid bonding leading the way. Here is how this can help: Power efficiency is enhanced through innovative packaging techniques. Performance benefits from shorter interconnection pitches. Area requirements vary for high-performance chips and 3D integration’s smaller z-form factor. Cost reduction strategies involve…
