CPMT Technical Meeting: 3D IC Packaging and 3D IC integration

Speaker: John Lau, an ASME and IEEE Fellow since 1994, will present a presentation and technical talk on 3D IC Packaging and 3D IC integration. John H. Lau has been an ITRI (Industrial Technology Research Institute) Fellow in Taiwan since January 2010. Prior to that, he was with HPL/Agilent in California, US for more than 25 years.

Abstract: 3D IC packaging and 3D IC integration are different. In general, the TSV (through-silicon via) separates 3D IC packaging from 3D IC integration because the latter use TSVs, but 3D IC packaging does not. TSV is the heart and most important key enabling technology of 3D IC integration. It provides the opportunity for the shortest chip-to-chip, and the smallest pad size and pitch of interconnects. The potential applications of 3D IC integration are: (1) memory-chip stacking, (2) wide I/O memory (or logic-on-logic), (3) wide I/O DRAM (or hybrid memory cube), and (4) wide I/O interface. In this presentation, the technology supply chains and the critical steps such as FEOL (front-end-of-line), MOL (middle-of-line), BEOL (back-end-of-line), TSV, MEOL (middle-end-of-line), assembly, and test and their ownerships for high-volume manufacturing for those 4 groups of 3D IC integration will be discussed. The 3D IC packaging, which has been keeping 3D IC integration away from volume production, will be briefly mentioned first.

Date: Tuesday, October 01, 2013

Time: 8:00 PM (Immediately after Section EXCOM Meeting)

Place: Orlando Business Development Center, District 2 (affiliated with the UCF and the S.B.A.) at 3218 East Colonial Drive, Suite #G, Orlando, FL 32802

Directions: In Herndon Plaza just east of Maguire Blvd. This is the shopping center across Colonial Drive from Fashion Square. It is on the west end of the building, around the building at the Southwest corner from the HH Gregg entrance.

AESS Technical Talk: Aircraft Avionics Equipage for FAA NextGen Flight Control System

Presenter: Ron T. Ogan, IEEE Senior Member IEEE Aerospace & Electronic Systems Society Board of Governors

Abstract: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has authorized transformation of the United States Air Traffic Control System from a radar based technology to a system utilizing Global Positioning System (GPS) Technology over the time period 2013-2020 which will require all aircraft, commercial and general aviation, operating in controlled airspace to be in compliance on January 1, 2020. Current requirements for Automatic Dependent Surveillance – Broadcast (ADS-B) In are stated in AC 20-165, TSO-C154c and TSO-C166b. Aircraft transponders will be upgraded from Mode-C, radar based, to Mode-S, GPS based which will provide precise position, altitude, velocity, and flight direction. Aircraft equipped with ADS-B receivers and multi-function displays (referred to as “glass cockpit” equipment) will connect to ground stations to provide current weather and aircraft traffic graphically displayed for increased safety. The FAA Next Generation Air Transportation System is a transformative change in the management and operation of how we fly. NextGen enhances safety, reduces delays, saves fuel and reduces aviation’s adverse environmental impact.

Date: Thursday, October 3, 2013

Time: 6:30 - 7:00 pm - Social and Refreshments; 7:15 - 9:00 pm Presentation and Discussion

Place: Orlando Business Development Center, District 2 (affiliated with the UCF and the S.B.A.) at 3218 East Colonial Drive, Suite #G, Orlando, FL 32802
