Global Interposer and Fan-Out WLP Market Definition

An interposer is an electrical interface whose purpose is to reroute a connection to a special connection.


Fan-out WLP (FOWLP) is a complicated version of the quality wafer-level packages and is developed to
satisfy the demand for higher-level integration and a greater number of external contacts by electrical
devices. It facilitates increased speed, better electrical and thermal performance, an increased number
of interconnections. Moreover, the FOWLP technology is predominantly used for cost-effective
electronics products.

FOWLP gives electrical connections to semiconductor IC chips providing reliable routing of circuit traces
for connection outside the die. The number of connections required exceeds the world on the chip for
area array formation and hence, a mold material is employed to supply a bigger area around the chip for
extra redistribution layer routing in FOWLP. FOWLP consists of one flipped chip encompassed by a mold
material to supply a greater area for routing. A vertical combination of varied devices and packages is
feasible with the assistance of FOWLP. Consumer electronics, predominantly mobiles, require chips that
provide maximum performance and better power efficiency alongside smaller physical size. FOWLP
makes way for thinner and cost-effective packages, and it allows to vertically stack the dies without the
necessity to revamp the chips.
