The transition from 2 dimensional (2D)
packaging to 3D packaging is considered to be one of the major
developments in the semiconductor industry. 3D packaging is observed to
pave way for the concept of “More than Moore” with comparatively lesser
investment. This has led to strategic innovation with respect to 3D
integration despite the economic downturn. The use of TSV interconnects
within die stack instead of wirebond interconnect and board-level
routing helps to save the system energy consumption to a large extent.
Some of the early innovations related to TSV include that from Samsung
(South Korea) and Xilinx (U.S.).
The two categories of substrates used in
the production of 3D ICs include silicon on insulator (SOI) and bulk
silicon. High cost is observed to be the key factor hindering the
adoption of SOI wafer on a large scale. The different bonding techniques
employed include die to die, die to wafer, wafer to wafer, direct
bonding, adhesive bonding, and metallic bonding. The yield achieved in
wafer to wafer process is generally below 85% due to Known Good Die
(KGD) issues and is thus observed to be cost prohibitive. In direct
bonding, the wafers can be bonded at room temperature. This, in turn,
helps to eliminate the problem of misalignment, which arises due to
thermal expansion of one wafer relative to the other at the time of bond
reaction. With respect to process realization techniques, it is
believed that wafer to wafer and via middle processes will become the
preferred standard for volume production of 3D ICs mainly due to the
reduced cost of the end-product. On the other hand, via last approach
can be performed with the currently available infrastructure and hence
they are expected to open the path to better market adoption for 3D
integration.
Amongst the various end-products for 3D
ICs and TSV interconnects, memories are observed to be the most
potential product market with a market share of approximately 40%. This
is followed by sensors and in particular, image sensors. Consumer
electronics application sector is observed to hold the largest share in
3D ICs and TSV
interconnects market with high demand for it in a number of
end-products such as smartphones, tablet PCs, e-readers, laptops, and
more.
The global 3D
IC market is expected to grow from $2.21 billion in 2009 to $6.55
billion in 2016 at a CAGR of 16.9% from 2011 to 2016. Asian region is
observed to have the highest growth rate. This is mainly attributed to
the presence of a huge number of companies such as Taiwan Semiconductor
Manufacturing Company Limited (Taiwan), Samsung (South Korea), United
Microelectronics Corporation (Taiwan), and more who contribute to
different aspects of 3D IC manufacturing and thus help to address the
challenges associated with its manufacture in a cost effective manner.
