Advanced electrolytes: meeting future requirements in microbump technology
About This Webinar
This webinar will explore the challenges and breakthroughs in meeting the evolving bump requirements of advanced packaging technologies through optimized electrochemical deposition (ECD) plating processes. We will trace the industry's transition from flip chip to 3D stacking, focusing on the demand for smaller bump sizes and tighter pitches.
The session will explore the complexities of ECD processes for copper, nickel and tin (and their alloys), with particular emphasis on microbump development. Additionally, we will evaluate NiFe alloy as a superior diffusion barrier, presenting empirical data and experimental solutions to address the miniaturization challenges in advanced packaging, while highlighting the exceptional performance of NiFe as a barrier material.
