Introduction to IC Packaging

Course Description The semiconductor industry provides critical enabling technology for many products and fields and has been in periods of rapid growth.  While electronics goods dominate the market, communications, medical devices and the automotive industry show signs of increased potential. The course provides an overview of semiconductor devices that are packaged to meet the size, cost and package performance to meet the various applications.  The package performance includes electrical, thermal and reliability to meet the growth of the semiconductor demands in this application.  Those interested in IC packaging will learn about the functions of IC packaging and existing BGA, CSP 3D packaging, WLP packaging etc. to meet the semiconductor application needs. This course is the first course of the IC Packaging curriculum for beginners. By learning about the concepts taught in this course, engineers can take more issues they encounter in their design and manufacturing operation.  After
