ALLVIA Adds Capabilities for Through-Quartz Vias, Reducing Foundry Cycle Times and Improving Interposer Product Quality

PRESS RELEASE
Sunnyvale, California, May 1, 2018

To meet growing market demand for high-density 2.5D and 3D stacked semiconductor solutions, Silicon Valley-based ALLVIA, Inc. has expanded its in-house capabilities to include the formation of through-quartz vias (TQV) ranging from 15 microns in diameter and 100 microns deep to 50 microns in diameter and 250 microns deep. ALLVIA's new TQV solution significantly improves the performance of 3D-ICs by creating IC interconnects with lower parasitic capacitance than can be achieved with the earlier generation of through-silicon via (TSV) technology.

3D Integration Breakthrough - ALLVIA Integrates Embedded Capacitors for Silicon Interposers and 3D Stacked Semiconductors

PRESS RELEASE
Sunnyvale, California, Feb. 23, 2010

ALLVIA, the first through-silicon via (TSV) foundry, has integrated embedded capacitors on Silicon Interposers, a key interface between a silicon device and an organic substrate needed for managing high interconnect densities. Capacitance values higher than 1,500 nF/cm2 have been achieved for the embedded capacitors developed for delivering power to the devices. 3D integration with ALLVIA's through-silicon via technology allows much closer access to high value capacitors than previously possible, leading to a much higher level of electrical performance.
