Three New Advanced Packaging Products from Shin-Etsu MicroSi, Inc. Address Demands of Flip Chip and Wafer-Level Packaging Markets

PHOENIX—(BUSINESS WIRE)—February 27, 2007— Shin-Etsu MicroSi, Inc. announces the release of new products for the flip chip and wafer-level packaging markets. These products include two new families of permanent dielectric films, the SINR(TM)-Series and the SPS(TM)-Series, as well as the next-generation photoresist in their current SIPR(TM)-7120 Series.

Photo-definable Dielectric Films

The first new product line, the SINR(TM)-Series, based on novel siloxane polymer chemistry, is a family of photo-definable, permanent dielectric films that can be cured at 180 degrees C or lower. Products in this family have been optimized for redistribution wiring (RDL), repassivation, stress buffer, and wafer-level bonding applications. Numerous advanced packaging customers have recently completed testing and report complete success in passing rigorous reliability demands.

The second new product line, the SPS(TM)-Series, is a family of photo-definable, permanent dielectric films based on poly (imide silicone) chemistry. These new materials are TMAH-developable and are easily integrated into existing processing lines that use conventional developers.

Next-generation Photoresist

The third new product is SIPR(TM)-7126, the next-generation product in our successful SIPR(TM)-7120 Series. SIPR(TM)-7126 is a positive tone, chemically amplified, TMAH-developable photoresist, capable of up to 100um film thickness in a single coat. Developed for conventional solder bump or copper pillar applications, the product has been optimized to withstand very aggressive plating chemistries without losing integrity. This resist is also easily removed after plating.
