Roadmap toward 2010 for high density/low cost semiconductor packaging

A bare chip packaging technology by an encapsulated flip chip bonding on a build-up printed circuit board has emerged in 1991. Since then, it enabled a high density and low cost semiconductor packaging such as a direct chip bonding on mother board and high density surface mount components, such as BGA and CSP. This technology can respond to various requirements from applications and is considered to take over a main role of semiconductor packaging in the next decade.
