InFO is an innovative wafer level system integration technology platform, featuring high density RDL (Re-Distribution Layer) and TIV (Through InFO Via) for high-density interconnect and performance for various applications, such as mobile, high performance computing, etc.. The InFO platform offers various package schemes in 2D and 3D that are optimized for specific applications.

InFO_PoP, the industry's 1st 3D wafer level fan-out package, features high density RDL and TIV to integrate mobile AP w/ DRAM package stacking for mobile application. Comparing to FC_PoP, InFO_PoP has a thinner profile and better electrical and thermal performances because of no organic substrate and C4 bump.

InFO_PoP

InFO_oS leverages InFO technology and features higher density 2/2µm RDL line width/space to integrate multiple advanced logic chiplets for 5G networking application. It enables hybrid pad pitches on SoC with minimum 40µm I/O pitch, minimum 130µm C4 Cu bump pitch and > 2X reticle size InFO on >65 x 65mm substrates. Production ramped in Q4'17. Expect to integrate more chips as our customers continue to accelerate the adoption of chiplet packaging scheme for their next generation products.
