Previous reports have been reported that Intel's glass substrate key is leaving the company and joining companies such as Samsung Electric. The outside world is wondering whether this means Intel may give up this business. However, the latest news has been released that Intel's glass substrate plan is being introduced according to the company's established blueprint, and there is no need to report on the full abandonment of glass substrates.
Glass substrate is a material used in advanced packaging solutions to replace organic materials. Glass substrates provide higher packaging strength, durability and reliability. Because of their thinner thickness, they make the interconnect density higher and can accommodate more transistors.
Intel has been leading the way in glass substrate research and development in the past, but recently reported that Intel may reach an agreement with Samsung to license glass substrate technology and provide the final solution, because it is a expensive investment to build manufacturing facilities on its own.
However, according to Korean media ETNews, Intel has not changed the plan of glass substrates and is fully committed to this business. According to the company's recent statement, the current glass substrate plan will still be promoted in accordance with the original direction. This is a positive development. After all, glass substrates play an extremely important role in the field of packaging technology.
