the stress manufacturers are under from sliding LED backlit demands

Citibank’s report forecasted large size backlight LED revenues for Epistar Corp. and Everlight Electronics, leaders in Taiwan’s LED upstream and downstream markets. The entry of lighting demands will alleviate the stress manufacturers are under from sliding LED backlit demands. In addition, the financial institute noted LED-backlit inventory level was much lower than 2012, and forecasted increased lighting demands will effectively lower potential steep LED order declines in 4Q13.The presentation explored Package-on-Package (PoP), or processor-memory stacking, as solutions to increasing performance in a smaller form factor for nichia chip led high bay mobile computing and other applications.
“As 2.5D and 3D technologies are becoming more prevalent, manufacturers are being confronted with evolving challenges, including new materials and complex processes,” said David Vicari, APL Director. “This is where the APL can play an integral role by partnering from prototyping and development to first article build, NPI, and volume production. By leveraging the knowledge of our expert team and our specialized precision analytical tool set, we help manufacturers maximize product yield and long-term reliability,” he added.

For leading-edge applications, the equipment solution must also be up to the challenge. Universal’s GenesisSC™ delivers high-end performance with 10µm accuracy, 3µm placement repeatability, and unmatched throughput. GenesisSC easily manages diverse packaging and assembly requirements by handling the led flood light  broadest range of die and components, substrate types and sizes, and supporting a full array of feeder types and configurations.
