Involvement of the FE and BE equipment suppliers 
 All the companies from R&D institutes to IP providers, equipment and materials suppliers, foundries, OSATs, IDMs, OEMs, substrate 
makers have strategically positioned themselves in the “Middle-End” due to its high growth potential. 
This evolution will lead to more investment in new equipment and materials 
 The motivations for introducing new manufacturing tools to fulfill 3D technology’s requirements drive considerably the entrance of a 
lot of equipment coming from the front-end and back-end areas in the ‘Middle-End’ space and create a battlefield between both 
equipment vendors coming from Front-End and Back-End area who are willing to gain market share in the “Middle-End” space 
 migration for equipment suppliers towards Middle-End space 
 Depending on the products and applications needs, a trade-off between performance and cost will be needed for the processes that 
have applications in both front-end and back-end and adopted in 3D integration process flow as well (for instance, lithography, 
cleaning, deposition, etching etc), 
• Supporting the trends of miniaturization, front-end tools would be preferred for achieving more aggressive features; however, they are typically more expensive. 
• On the other side, the back-end equipment generally exhibits lower cost but can face scaling issues when semiconductor ICs continue to reduce in chip and feature size

2013 Dielectric materials Market 
Breakdown per type of dielectric material 
 Main dielectric passivation applied to all Advanced Packaging platforms applications are Polyimide (PI) and BCB. 
• PI is the key polymer material used for Wafer-Level-Packaging applications, mainly driven by flip chip applications. 
‒ Flip-chip wafer bumping with electroplated solder and copper pillars which are in high volume in the CPU / GPU / ASIC / FPGA space and today entering in high 
volume the mobile baseband / APE / RF PA Transceiver / PMU spaces 
 BCB is also a very popular material in WLP applications, mainly supported by the WLCSP applications. 
 However, PBO becomes a promising material for WLCSP and we are expecting demand for PBO to keep growing for WLCSP and 
2.5D/3D IC applications 
 WPR is being replaced because off its thermal stability issues

Advanced Packaging Platforms: Equipment & Materials 
Equipment & Materials for 3DIC & Wafer-Level Packaging Applications 
Mainly supported today by flip-chip wafer bumping, 3D WLP, and WLCSP; the long term 
growth of the equipment & materials business will be supported by the expansion of 
3D TSV stack platforms. 
TSV integration is creating growth and significant 
interest in the equipment & materials industry 
Mainly supported today by flip-chip wafer bumping, 
the equipment market generated revenue of 
more than $930M in 2013. It is expected that this 
equipment market revenue will peak at almost 
$2.5B. It is fueled by the 3D IC technology with 
TSV interconnects, an area offering opportunities 
for new developments in equipment modification— 
equipment that is much more expensive than the 
tools used for established Advanced Packaging 
platforms (3D WLP, WLCSP, flip-chip wafer bumping). 
Indeed, 2015 will be the key turning point for the 
adoption of 3D TSV Stacks since the memory 
manufacturers, such as Samsung, SK Hynix, Micron, 
have already started to ship prototypes this year 
and might be ready to enter in high-volume 
manufacturing next year. 
In addition, logic manufacturers will diversify 
investments from System-on-Chip to Package-on- 
Package and will benefit from Advanced Packaging 
platforms such as 2.5D interposer and FO WLP to 
stimulate their high-volume production. 
The materials market will grow from $789M in 
2013 to over $2.1B with a CAGR of 18%. Growth 
will mainly be driven by the expansion of the next 
generation Wafer-level-packaging platforms (3D 
TSV stacked memories, multi-layer RDL for FO 
WLP & WLCSP), which are becoming more complex 
and requiring additional and various thin layers, 
as well as advanced materials, to achieve better 
performance. 
This report will present a comprehensive overview of 
the main equipment and materials used in the 3D & 
WLP applications. In addition, it includes insights on 
a number of equipment tools, breakdown by wafer 
size & revenue, by type of equipment & materials 
and advanced packaging applications. Moreover, it 
also provides details about key suppliers, market 
share and technological highlights that impact the 
3D & WLP industry. 
Equipment & materials market forecasts are 
calculated for 2013–2019.

Increase competition in the packaging area: 
Battle in the equipment & materials industry 
The packaging area has driven significant activity 
throughout the entire supply chain to solve 3D 
technology manufacturing challenges. 
Starting in 2015, the strong growth of TSV 
adoption will result in significant investments in 
new equipment and materials to meet the key 
requirements of 3D technology. Fabrication of 
TSV requires several processing steps, each with 
their own specifications, depending on the needs 
of each application. In addition, robust integration 
of all the steps will be critical for the successful 
implementation of TSV technology. 
Today, there are still many unresolved challenges: 
remaining technical issues, standardization for

collaborative business models and more 
importantly cost, especially for consumer and 
mobile applications. 
The 3D TsV business has been of central interest 
to the packaging area that has enabled the entry 
of equipment suppliers coming from the Front- 
End and Back-End (PCB) areas. Both of which 
are looking to fi nd business opportunities in the 
Middle-End. 
Supporting the trends of miniaturization, front-end 
tools would be preferred for achieving more 
aggressive features; however, they are typically 
more expensive. 
Back-end equipment generally exhibits lower cost 
but can face scaling issues when semiconductor 
ICs continue to reduce in chip and function size. 
As a result, to support the 3D integration process 
fl ow, a trade-off between performance and cost 
will be necessary. 
In addition to existing tools to support all the 
different 3D activities and processing needs, 
several equipment and materials vendors have 
emerged. A result of the various steps involved in 
3D technology is that the equipment market has 
become quite diversifi ed. 
S eve r a l d i f f e r e n t g r o up s o f p l aye r s, e a c h 
providing different expertise, have been formed: 
• Top-tier semiconductor equipment suppliers 
coming from the Front-End area 
• Specialist equipment suppliers that have 
developed knowledge and expertise in very 
specifi c equipment lines. They are looking to 
further increase their market share in their fi eld 
of expertise through differentiation from Top-tier 
equipment suppliers. 
On the other hand, the last acquisitions—SPTS 
acquired by Orbotech and the merger between 
AMAT and TEL—show an interest by these 
companies to provide equipment tools for the 
Advanced Packaging industry and thus, support 
as much as possible the Middle-End area. 
Since the competition has increased between 
equipment and materials suppliers, strategic 
partnerships will probably be necessary to 
support as much as possible the current and 
future needs of 3D stacking. 
This big change in the equipment & materials 
market is creating a new battle in the Middle-End 
area, which is going to be very interesting over 
the next 5 years. 
This report presents a detailed analysis on the 
packaging industry, highlighting new strategies 
developed by the equipment & materials suppliers. 
It gives future evolution of the packaging industry 
and detailed analysis on the impact of the latest 
acquisitions on the evolution of the equipment & 
materials markets.

(Yole Développement, November 2014) 
INCREASED COMPETITION IN ThE LIThOGRAPhy MARkET 
The lithography market has gained signifi cant 
interest within the equipment market. This fi eld has 
driven the entrance of new equipment suppliers. 
Today if ultratech and suss micro tech focused 
on gaining a large portion of market share in the 
lithography area, they might be challenged by 
equipment suppliers coming from the Front-End 
area, such as Nikon and Canon, that represent 
Top-tier semiconductor equipment and equipment 
vendors coming from the PCB industry (such as 
Orbotech, Ushio). 
The lithography market is quite diversifi ed and 
segmented into several different types of 
equipment suppliers. New entrants are trying 
to enter the lithography market with alternative 
solutions to mask aligners and steppers, both used 
in the packaging area. 
Competitive landscape and market share for the 
major equipment & materials suppliers involved in 
the Packaging industry are quantifi ed and detailed 
in this report.

  • 27. Advanced Packaging Platforms: Equipment & Materials Equipment & Materials for 3DIC & Wafer-Level Packaging Applications Mainly supported today by flip-chip wafer bumping, 3D WLP, and WLCSP; the long term growth of the equipment & materials business will be supported by the expansion of 3D TSV stack platforms. TSV integration is creating growth and significant interest in the equipment & materials industry Mainly supported today by flip-chip wafer bumping, the equipment market generated revenue of more than $930M in 2013. It is expected that this equipment market revenue will peak at almost $2.5B. It is fueled by the 3D IC technology with TSV interconnects, an area offering opportunities for new developments in equipment modification— equipment that is much more expensive than the tools used for established Advanced Packaging platforms (3D WLP, WLCSP, flip-chip wafer bumping). Indeed, 2015 will be the key turning point for the adoption of 3D TSV Stacks since the memory manufacturers, such as Samsung, SK Hynix, Micron, have already started to ship prototypes this year and might be ready to enter in high-volume manufacturing next year. In addition, logic manufacturers will diversify investments from System-on-Chip to Package-on- Package and will benefit from Advanced Packaging platforms such as 2.5D interposer and FO WLP to stimulate their high-volume production. The materials market will grow from $789M in 2013 to over $2.1B with a CAGR of 18%. Growth will mainly be driven by the expansion of the next generation Wafer-level-packaging platforms (3D TSV stacked memories, multi-layer RDL for FO WLP & WLCSP), which are becoming more complex and requiring additional and various thin layers, as well as advanced materials, to achieve better performance. This report will present a comprehensive overview of the main equipment and materials used in the 3D & WLP applications. In addition, it includes insights on a number of equipment tools, breakdown by wafer size & revenue, by type of equipment & materials and advanced packaging applications. Moreover, it also provides details about key suppliers, market share and technological highlights that impact the 3D & WLP industry. Equipment & materials market forecasts are calculated for 2013–2019.

Starting in 2015, the strong growth of TSV adoption will result in significant investments in new equipment and materials to meet the key requirements of 3D technology. Fabrication of TSV requires several processing steps, each with their own specifications, depending on the needs of each application. In addition, robust integration of all the steps will be critical for the successful implementation of TSV technology.

  • 28. BGA Dicing W2W collaborative business models and more importantly cost, especially for consumer and mobile applications. The 3D TsV business has been of central interest to the packaging area that has enabled the entry of equipment suppliers coming from the Front- End and Back-End (PCB) areas. Both of which are looking to fi nd business opportunities in the Middle-End. Supporting the trends of miniaturization, front-end tools would be preferred for achieving more aggressive features; however, they are typically more expensive. Back-end equipment generally exhibits lower cost but can face scaling issues when semiconductor ICs continue to reduce in chip and function size. As a result, to support the 3D integration process fl ow, a trade-off between performance and cost will be necessary. In addition to existing tools to support all the different 3D activities and processing needs, several equipment and materials vendors have emerged. A result of the various steps involved in 3D technology is that the equipment market has become quite diversifi ed. S eve r a l d i f f e r e n t g r o up s o f p l aye r s, e a c h providing different expertise, have been formed: • Top-tier semiconductor equipment suppliers coming from the Front-End area • Specialist equipment suppliers that have developed knowledge and expertise in very specifi c equipment lines. They are looking to further increase their market share in their fi eld of expertise through differentiation from Top-tier equipment suppliers. On the other hand, the last acquisitions—SPTS acquired by Orbotech and the merger between AMAT and TEL—show an interest by these companies to provide equipment tools for the Advanced Packaging industry and thus, support as much as possible the Middle-End area. Since the competition has increased between equipment and materials suppliers, strategic partnerships will probably be necessary to support as much as possible the current and future needs of 3D stacking. This big change in the equipment & materials market is creating a new battle in the Middle-End area, which is going to be very interesting over the next 5 years. This report presents a detailed analysis on the packaging industry, highlighting new strategies developed by the equipment & materials suppliers. It gives future evolution of the packaging industry and detailed analysis on the impact of the latest acquisitions on the evolution of the equipment & materials markets. Equipment & Materials for 3DIC & Wafer-Level Packaging Applications Etch Inspection PVD Implant Cleaning CVD CMP Wafer test Thinning 2013 global equipment market for 3D TSV WLP (Yole Développement, November 2014) INCREASED COMPETITION IN ThE LIThOGRAPhy MARkET The lithography market has gained signifi cant interest within the equipment market. This fi eld has driven the entrance of new equipment suppliers. Today if ultratech and suss micro tech focused on gaining a large portion of market share in the lithography area, they might be challenged by equipment suppliers coming from the Front-End area, such as Nikon and Canon, that represent Top-tier semiconductor equipment and equipment vendors coming from the PCB industry (such as Orbotech, Ushio). The lithography market is quite diversifi ed and segmented into several different types of equipment suppliers.
