In the semiconductor advanced packaging market, the importance of redistribution layer (RDL) patterning technology is increasing, driven by growing demand for high-density wiring for large interposers and multilayer FC-BGA substrates*5.
Nikon has been developing digital lithography systems that eliminate the need for photomasks while achieving both high resolution and high productivity. Nikon is launching the DSP-110 with 1.5 µm (L/S) resolution as a successor following the DSP-100 with 1.0 µm (L/S) resolution. The improved throughput of the DSP-110 was achieved by redesigning the optical system of the DSP-100. This was made possible by Nikon's unique technological capabilities in designing and manufacturing optical systems in-house. Going forward, Nikon will continue to closely monitor technology trends in advanced packaging while responding to customers' diverse needs, including resolution and supported substrate types.
Nikon Launches DSP-110 Digital Lithography System with 1.5 μm Resolution
Summary by 6ix
Nikon is launching the DSP-110, a digital lithography system with 1.5 µm (L/S, meaning line and space width) resolution for chip advanced packaging. It succeeds the DSP-100, which has 1.0 µm (L/S) resolution.
Key details
- Nikon says its digital lithography systems remove the need for photomasks while achieving both high resolution and high productivity.
- Nikon says the DSP-110's improved throughput came from redesigning the DSP-100's optical system, which it designs and manufactures in-house.
- The system targets redistribution layer (RDL) patterning, the printing of wiring layers used in semiconductor advanced packaging.
