The growing and diversifying system requirements have continued to drive the development of a variety of new package styles and configurations: Small-form-factor Lightweight technology Low-profile technology High-pin-count technology High-speed technology High Reliability Improved thermal management Lower cost Fan-in WLP maintains its appeal as the package that can provide 2 unmatchable advantages: • Reduced form factor • Low cost Demand is reaching available capacity Technology innovation in fan-in WLP continues: • Die size increases • Bump pitch reduces Foundry involvement is no longer a dent in fan-in WLP production Increased activity of Chinese capital on the market New applications are emerging while other are declining • Disruptions also expected in the MEMS and CIS domains • Internet of Things Mobile sector is driving fan-in WLP production and growing IoT is on the horizon and is expected to have a significant impact on fan-in packages and the packaging industry as a whole
