The first complete report analyzing in detail the opportunities for Polymeric Materials in 3DIC & Wafer-Level Packaging applications
POLYMER USAGE WILL GROW BY 26% CAGR IN WAFER LEVEL APPLICATIONS OVER 5 YEARS
Polymeric semiconductor material market reached a value of $274M last year and its growth over the next 5 years of more than 26% CAGR will be fueled by the expansion of flip-chip wafer bumping, Fan-in WLCSP packages, 3D WLP, FO WLP packages, 2.5D Glass / Silicon interposers and 3DIC packages.
Yole analysts have gathered market data, technology information and analysis necessary to answer the following questions:
- What materials are being used in what applications ?
- What key properties do I need to understand before I make a material choice ?
- Who are the key supplies of these materials and what is their market share?
- What synergies do competitors have in their product lines ?
AN INCREASING NUMBER OF POLYMERS ARE USED FOR WLP APPLICATIONS
About half of the demand today for polymeric materials in 3DIC & WLP applications is driven by dielectric passivation resins which reached about $107M market value in 2011.
Polymide (PI) and BCB of DOW Chemical still account for > 70% of the total demand, historically by the growth flip-chip bumping an WLCSP passivation steps.
PBO, epoxies, WPR and AL-X recently entered the market thanks to the recent growth demand in 300mm WLCSP, FOWLP and emerging 3DIC applications.
