Current IssueIn Pursuit of Perfection: Defect Reduction
For bare PCB board fabrication, defect reduction is a critical aspect of a company's bottom line profitability. In this issue, we examine how imaging, etching, and plating processes can provide information and insight into reducing defects and increasing yields.
Voices of the Industry
We take the pulse of the PCB industry by sharing insights from leading fabricators and suppliers in this month's issue. We've gathered their thoughts on the new U.S. administration, spending, the war in Ukraine, and their most pressing needs. It’s an eye-opening and enlightening look behind the curtain.
The Essential Guide to Surface Finishes
We go back to basics this month with a recount of a little history, and look forward to addressing the many challenges that high density, high frequency, adhesion, SI, and corrosion concerns for harsh environments bring to the fore. We compare and contrast surface finishes by type and application, take a hard look at the many iterations of gold plating, and address palladium as a surface finish.

iNEMI Packaging Tech Topic Webinar: Navigating Advanced IC Substrate Technology and Market Trends
October 15, 2024 | iNEMIEstimated reading time: 1 minute
The increasing demands of artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and high-performance computing (HPC) are driving requirements at all levels of the semiconductor supply chain with different levels of complexity and demands. As performance requirements outpace traditional silicon scaling, the industry has turned to advanced IC substrates and advanced packaging technologies to meet the growing need for higher power efficiency, greater interconnect density, and larger form factors.
The emergence of glass core substrates is especially promising and is attracting attention and interest. These substrates offer superior mechanical, thermal, and electrical properties compared to organic substrates. The arrival of glass pushes beyond the limitations and challenges of organic substrates to be considered an option for AI and HPC products and not a bottleneck.
In this presentation, Dr. Hachemi will explore the latest trends and roadmaps in advanced IC substrates, focusing on the roles of organic and glass core technologies in enhancing package-level integration for AI and HPC applications. He will discuss the industry's progress in adopting glass substrates and trends in areas such as interconnect scaling, thermal management, and substrate reliability. Additionally, the presentation will map new investments and capacity expansions around the globe.
