33 Conclusion remarksthe potential advantages and challenges of WLP Potential advantages: Lower cost - Decouple MEMS & IC process: faster to develop. - Batch packaging/testing process: dramatic cost reduction for small die size product. Smaller form factor - For mobile applications. - Small foot print and thin. Limitations and Challenges: Over all - Hard to define the technology roadmap: MEMS rule> one product, one process, one packaging. - But, there still have two essential technologies of WLP: DRIE and bonding. DRIE - We need to have clear picture of the equipment/process technology roadmap. - We need to continue improving E/R, A/R and U%. Bonding: - Wafer bonding is still a low throughput process. - Limited bonding media due to the process compatibility and reliability. - Combined yield problem.
