Projects
Information
The Chips JU project E2PackMan contributes to strengthen innovation and packaging production in Europe to improve the
ecosystem for leading edge / advanced electronics. Integration of more functionality in smaller volume is still the major driver in
microelectronics. In order to facilitate further miniaturization, assembly and packaging (A&P) is becoming of increasing importance
for the value chain of a microelectronic product.
To secure the future of electronic products "Made in Europe", we need a big push to strengthen innovation and production in the A&P
sector. Thus E2PackMan will push materials research as well as innovative equipment and process developments. The focus of this
research will be on catalyzing industrial production capabilities in Europe, both strengthening the production capabilities of the large
semiconductor suppliers in Europe and creating a network that enables SMEs to produce their innovative devices in Europe.
A world-class consortium of 60 partners from 13 European countries has been brought together to push advanced packaging in
Europe towards heterogeneous system integration: The E2PackMan -EU project tackles a coherent approach that includes the whole
value chain from material, process and technology developments validated by test-builds including the interface of the package to
the chips and to the board/system.
