The Need To Focus On Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test

Photo by Devin Spell on Unsplash THE IMPORTANCE OF OUTSOURCED SEMICONDUCTOR ASSEMBLY AND TEST Outsourcing is one of the several ways to optimize in-house business activities, and that is why the majority of the industry heavily takes advantage of outsourcing. In the long run, hiring an external vendor to outsource part of the product development process not only brings operational efficiency but also provides an avenue to optimize internal resources. The semiconductor industry is also heavily driven by outsourcing. More than the design, the manufacturing aspect of the semiconductor product development relies on services provided by external vendors. The two major examples of semiconductor outsourcing are FABs (Pure-Play Foundries) and OSATs. Pure-Play Foundries: Provides services that transform the design files into real silicon wafers. OSATs: Takes the silicon wafers fabricated and puts […]
