• Introduction of ECP (Encapsulated Chip Package) technology in Fan-Out Packaging Solution:

The Introduction of ECP (Encapsulated Chip Package) technology in Fan-Out Packaging Solution is set to drive its market during the forecast period. Electronics miniaturization in the form of integrated circuits has become an indispensable part of our lives since the advent of the Internet and multimedia. The rapid development of integrated circuits is dependent on advancements in not only chip design and manufacturing, but also chip packaging, to ensure its long-term operation and reliability. Unlike other packaging processes that use wafer reconstitution molding compounds, ECP technology is an advanced chip-first and face-down packaging process. Instead of the traditional liquid or powder molding compound, the ECP process employs a laminating molding film. Moreover, the lamination process replaces the wafer molding process for ultra-thin chip packaging. The lamination process allows reconstituted wafers to achieve a high degree of flatness while avoiding wafer cavities. Furthermore, when compared to liquid or powder compounds for wafer molding, it can effectively reduce chip offset and achieve small-size, high fan-out ratio packaging. In addition, the silicon support on the backside of the reconstituted wafer can effectively reduce warpage and overcome warpage-related problems owing to the unique ECP process and the low modulus characteristics of the lamination film. ECP technology not only enables fan-out, single-chip, and multi-chip packaging, but also five-sided package protection. It has a small size and a high fan-out ratio, allowing it to effectively overcome wafer warpage.

• Rising Automotive and Industrial Applications:

Surge in rise of Automotive and Industrial applications is driving the Fan-Out Packaging Materials & Equipment Market growth. The current automotive market for the integrated circuit (IC) packaging industry has grown significantly owing to the increasing demand for automation and higher performance in vehicles. These changes in the automotive market set to allow cars to become more reliable and intelligent. To meet the increasingly complex demands of the automotive market, the semiconductor packaging industry is shifting its focus to prioritize the development of advanced packages for next-generation automotive market requirements. Wire bond packages are typically used for automotive integrated circuits. The packaging industry is shifting toward high performance flip chip and advanced fan-out packages for automotive infotainment, GPS, and radar applications as the complexity and performance requirements of automotive applications increase. For instance, ASE Group established a FO-WLP line in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, with other major OSATs in production or planning their fan-out packaging launch phases. In addition, according to Powertech Technology Inc., Fab 3 in Hsinchu Science Park set to be the world's first fab to commercially use fan-out panel-level packaging (FOPLP) technology. Furthermore, the expanding market for fifth generation (5G) wireless communication and high performance computing has allowed manufacturers to develop newer technologies. For example, TSMC, as the sole leader in the High-Density Fan-out segment, intends to expand its FO-WLP segment into technologies such as inFO-Antenna-in-Package (AiP) and inFO-on-Substrate (oS).

• High Manufacturing Cost Hampers the Growth of the Market:

High Manufacturing cost owing to war page causing differential shrinkage of material during FOWLP set to restrict the growth of the Fan-Out Packaging Materials & Equipment Market. Fan-out wafer-level packaging (FOWLP) has numerous advantages over other packaging technologies. FOWLP is one of the smallest packaging options, but unlike fan-in wafer-level packaging, the IO count is not limited to the die area. FOWLP's popularity is growing as a result of these benefits. While the cost of FOWLP is usually quite high, there are still opportunities for future cost savings. Many FOWLP suppliers are looking into panel-based manufacturing as an alternative to the current wafer-based approach.
