Knowledge of the technology, characteristics, and market trends of the latest CPUs used in smartphones, computers, and supercomputers and the research trends of leading US university experts gives an edge to policy-makers, business executives, large investors, etc. To this end, we describe three topics in detail at a level that can help educate the non-majors to the extent possible. Topic 1 comprises the design and manufacture of a CPU and the technology and trends of the smartphone SoC. Topic 2 comprises the technology and trends of the x86 CPU and supercomputer, and Topic 3 involves an optical network chip that has the potential to emerge as a major semiconductor chip. We also describe three techniques and experiments that can be used to implement the optical network chip.

This paper proposes non-destructive ESPI technique to evaluate inside defects of semiconductor package quantitatively. Inspection system consists of ESPI system, thermal loading system and adiabatic chamber. The technique has high feasibility in non-destructive testing of semiconductor and gives solutions to the drawbacks in previous technique, time-consuming and the difficulty of quantitative evaluation. In result, most of defects are classified in delamination, from which it is inferred to the insufficiency of adhesive strength between layers and nonhomogeneous heat spread. The $90\%$ of tested samples have a delamination defect started at the around of the chip which may be related to heat spread design.

TSOP(Thin Small Outline Package)는 가전제품, 자동차, 모바일, 데스크톱 PC등을 위한 저렴한 비용의 패키지로, 리드 프레임을 사용하는 IC패키지이다. TSOP는 BGA와 flip-chip CSP에 비해 우수한 성능은 아니지만, 저렴한 가격 때문에 많은 분야에 널리 사용되고 있습니다. 그러나, TSOP 패키지에서 몰딩공정 할 때 리드프레임의 열적 처짐 현상이 빈번하게 일어나고, 반도체 다이와 패드 사이의 Au 와이어 떨어짐 현상이 이슈가 되고 있다. 이러한 문제점을 해결하기 위해서는 리드프레임의 구조를 개선하고 낮은 CTE를 갖는 재료로 대체해야 한다. 본 연구에서는 열적 안정성을 갖도록 리드프레임 구조 개선을 위해 수치해석적 방법으로 진행하였다. TSOP 패키지에서 리드프레임의 열적 처짐은 반도체와 다이 사이의 거리(198 um~366 um)에서 안티-디플렉션의 위치에 따라 시뮬레이션을 진행하였다. 안티-디플렉션으로 TSOP 패키지의 열적 처짐은 확실히 개선되는 것을 확인 했다. 안티-디플렉션의 위치가 inside(198 um)일 때 30.738 um 처짐을 보였다. 이러한 결과는 리드프레임의 열적 팽창을 제한하는데 안티-디플렉션이 기여하고 있기 때문이다. 그러므로 리드프레임 패키지에 안티-디플렉션을 적용하게 되면 낮은 CTE를 갖는 재료로 대체하지 않아도 열적 처짐을 향상시킬 수 있음을 기대할 수 있다.

Recently, board level solder joint reliability performance of IC packages during drop impact becomes a great concern to semiconductor and electronic product manufacturers. The handheld electronic products are prone to being dropped during their useful service life because of their size and weight. The IC packages are susceptible to solder joint failures, induced by a combination of printed circuit board (PCB) bending and mechanical shock during impact. The board level drop testing is an effective method to characterize the solder joint reliability performance of miniature handheld products. In this paper, applying the JEDEC (JESD22-B111) standard present a finite element modeling of the FBGA. The simulation results revealed that maximum stress was located at the outermost solder ball in the PCB or IC package side, which consisted well with the location of crack initiation observed in the failure analysis after drop reliability tests.

As The semiconductor decrease from 10 nanometer to 7 nanometer, It is suggested that "More than Moore" is needed to follow Moore's Law, which has been a guide for the semiconductor industry. Fan-Out Wafer Level Package(FOWLP) is considered as the key to "More than Moore" to lead the next generation in semiconductors, and the reasons are as follows. the fan-out WLP does not require a substrate, unlike conventional wire bonding and flip-chip bonding packages. As a result, the thickness of the package reduces, and the interconnection becomes shorter. It is easy to increase the number of I / Os and apply it to the multi-layered 3D package. However, FOWLP has many issues that need to be resolved in order for mass production to become feasible. One of the most critical problem is the warpage problem in a process. Due to the nature of the FOWLP structure, the RDL is wired to multiple layers. The warpage problem arises when a new RDL layer is created. It occurs because the solder ball reflow process is exposed to high temperatures for long periods of time, which may cause cracks inside the package. For this reason, we have studied warpage in the FOWLP structure using commercial simulation software through the implementation of the reflow process. Simulation was performed to reproduce the experiment of products of molding compound company. Young's modulus and poisson's ratio were found to be influenced by the order of influence of the factors affecting the distortion. We confirmed that the lower young's modulus and poisson's ratio, the lower warpage.

Recently, fan out wafer level packaging, which enables high integration, miniaturization, and low cost, is being rapidly applied in the semiconductor industry. In particular, FOWLP is attracting attention in the mobile and Internet of Things fields, and is recognized as a core technology that will lead to technological advancements such as 5G, self-driving cars, and artificial intelligence in the future. However, as chip density and package size within the package increase, FOWLP warpage is emerging as a major problem. These problems have a direct impact on the reliability and electrical performance of semiconductor products, and in particular, cause defects such as vacuum leakage in the manufacturing process or lack of focus in the photolithography process, so technical demands for solving them are increasing. In this paper, warpage simulation according to the thickness of FOWLP material was performed using finite element analysis. The thickness range was based on the history of similar packages, and as a factor causing warpage, the curing temperature of the materials undergoing the curing process was applied and the difference in deformation due to the difference in thermal expansion coefficient between materials was used. At this time, the stacking order was reflected to reproduce warpage behavior similar to reality. After performing finite element analysis, the influence of each variable on causing warpage was defined, and based on this, it was confirmed that warpage was controlled as intended through design modifications.

In summary, a fundamentally new paradigm called System-on-Package could potentially become a complementary alternative to System-on-Chip, thus providing a balanced set of system-level functions between the semiconductor IC and single component package beyond the year 2007. The concurrent engineering and optimization of IC and package could overcome the fundamental IC issues presented above.
