What you will learn from FYS4260 • Packaging and interconnection deals with the physical (hardware) realization of electronic systems – from schematics/diagram to finished product. • You will become aware of important concerns in design, manufacturing and use of electronics • You will learn how to build your own electronics circuit board • The course takes a practical engineering approach to the subject: – Will not demand extensive theory – Will not go into finer detail on e.g. integrated circuit design

What are the packaging and interconnection challenges in order to realize a modern mobile phone? Packaging&interconnection tends to attract less attention than component developments and software apps, but is still important! Packaging and interconnection is a crucial engineering discipline in electronics development: • Key cost factor • Packaging/interconnection is the main source of failures in electronic systems

Hardware Is The New Software Nest. GoPro. Beats. Jawbone. Oculus. All hardware companies and each of them accorded multi-billion-dollar valuations either in private investment transactions or acquisitions by some of the largest technology companies on the planet. When the deals first surfaced, more than a few people were puzzled. Hardware hasn’t exactly been sexy for the past decade or so. Until last year, VC and tech talent have been fawning over software companies, which attracted nearly $11 billion in venture capital and saw 1,523 deals in 2013. And how did consumer electronics makers do with VCs in 2013? A paltry $848 million and 31 deals. That’s because software, once expensive and complicated to make, has become relatively easy. Increased access to open-source services and the cloud mean that two guys in a garage can inexpensively create an application for accepting mobile payments at your new pop-up store or for finding a ride downtown. Access to massive global markets can be had almost overnight via iOS or Android app stores. No need for vast distribution networks. No need for a supply chain. Just extremely low overhead and high margins. But there’s just one thing missing from software. Before anyone can get to the bits, they must get through the atoms. Which means they need one thing: Hardware •

Definition of ELECTRONIC PACKAGING AND INTERCONNECTION TECHNOLOGY (Halbo/Ohlckers) • The realization of the physical, electronic system, starting from a block-/circuit diagram level • Involves choice of technology for implementation, choice of materials, detailed design in chosen technology, analysis of electrical and thermal properties, reliability et cetera.

Packaging requires multiple skills:
–Electronics –Materials properties and materials compatibility –Mechanics –Chemistry –Metallurgy –Production technology –Reliability, etc.
• Product development should involve experts from the various fields, and the interdependence of the fields may be the most important to make a good product.

MEMS - Micro-Electro-Mechanical Systems (Microsystems) MEMS can be defined as miniaturized mechanical and electro-mechanical elements (i.e., devices and structures) that are made using the techniques of microfabrication. FYS4260/FYS9260

NEMS – Nano-Electro-Mechanical Systems Nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) are a class of devices integrating electrical and mechanical functionality on the nanoscale. NEMS form the logical next miniaturization step from MEMS devices. NEMS typically integrate transistorlike nanoelectronics with mechanical actuators, pumps, or motors, and may thereby form physical, biological, and chemical sensors. FYS4260/FYS9260

0th level packaging:
Wafer/chip level packaging The significant for 0th level is that packaging starts on wafer level and not after the wafer is cut into circuits (dice). This includes for example • Wafer level metallization and coating systems • Wafer-to-wafer joining • Flip chip or stud bumping preparation

Moore's law: Doubling of transistor count every second year http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore%27s_law

More on Moore's law
"Moore's law" is the observation that, over the history of computing hardware, the number of transistors in a dense integrated circuit doubles approximately every two years. The observation is named after Gordon E. Moore, co-founder of the Intel Corporation, who described the trend in his 1965 paper. His prediction has proven to be accurate, in part because the law now is used in the semiconductor industry to guide long-term planning and to set targets for research and development.[ The capabilities of many digital electronic devices are strongly linked to Moore's law: quality-adjusted microprocessor prices, memory capacity, sensors and even the number and size of pixels in digital cameras. All of these are improving at roughly exponential rates as well. This exponential improvement has dramatically enhanced the effect of digital electronics in nearly every segment of the world economy. Moore's law describes a driving force of technological and social change, productivity, and economic growth in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries. The period is often quoted as 18 months because of Intel executive David House, who predicted that chip performance would double every 18 months (being a combination of the effect of more transistors and their being faster). Although this trend has continued for more than half a century, "Moore's law" should be considered an observation or conjecture and not a physical or natural law. Sources in 2005 expected it to continue until at least 2015 or 2020. The 2010 update to the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors predicted that growth will slow at the end of 2013, however, when transistor counts and densities are to double only every three years.
