Application of PCB for Semiconductor and Electronics Industry.
In today’s world where technology around us uses smartphone, laptop, TVs and all the electronic devices, there is a small board inside them that helps to connect and function these devices , these boards are called Printed Circuit Board or PCB. A Printed Circuit Board (PCB) is a flat board that has embedding of conductive wires usually called traces/tracks and large area of metal referred to as ‘Planes’ that is usually made up of copper where it provides structures for electronic components that holds it in top, bottom or even in the sides. It is made up of multiple …
Challenges encountered in processing Wafers in Semiconductor Assembly
Physical defects or contaminants can be induced into the wafer at fabrication and assembly. These problems can decrease production yield, cause longer processing time or worst product failure. Semiconductor Front-of-Line environment can also affect the quality of the wafers. Beside foreign material contamination possibility, static charges could contaminate the wafer and its dice. Although strict QC should be implemented, specialized wafer types can prevent these problems. Below are some of the problems encountered when processing wafers in front of line assembly. Defects induced by Wafer saw – Wafer Saw is the process of cutting/singulation of each die which starts …
Kemet Supercapacitors
As the world continues to lean and focus on energy security, an increasing number of technologies are now focusing on efficient ways of energy storage and applications. One such technology that can take the decisive role in the advancement of energy storage technology and can be the future of energy systems is the supercapacitor. This technology has already drawn a lot of attention since the beginning of it’s conceptualization because of its exceptionally high capacitance with an almost unlimited charge or discharge cycle life. What is a Supercapacitor? Supercapacitor, also known as Super Cap, Double Layer Capacitor or Ultra-capacitor, …

Global Chips Shortages and Supply Impact
Semiconductor chips are known as essential components in every electronic product. Whether connecting to every corner of the world or changing how we live and work, the achievement of chips outcast any other technology and became the building blocks of modernization. With the global semiconductor supply chain being put under enormous pressure by the Covid-19 pandemic, the severity and impact of chip shortage has gone up. Chip shortage typically occurs when there is change that prevents certain chips from being produced in large quantities needed to satisfy demand. This can have a major impact on the electronics industry where manufacturers …
