Faster Time to Market with New High Volume Chip Scale Package Production Line

Santa Clara, California – Best Electronics and Components Company, Inc. (BECCI), a contract test facility for analog and mixed signal semiconductors, announced today that it has successfully established a high volume Chip Scale Package (CSP) Production Line.

The new CSP production line can electrically sort, laser mark, visually inspect, tape, and reel multiple wafer scale devices such as standard or bumped die as small as 0.5 mm square and QFN packages at production volumes of 2,000,000 devices per week.
Best’s new CSP production line uses a totally inkless process based on an advanced wafer mapping program, developed by Best, that electronically merges bump maps, electrical sort maps, and vision inspection maps for all formats into one composite map that controls the selection and taping of all devices. This inkless electronic mapping process eliminates unnecessary manufacturing operations, increases the quality level, and increases production through-put by 400 %. The new CSP production line features a ‘punch-through’ tape that allows customers to remove die from either side of the finished tape..

“Our new CSP capability will enable Best to serve the rapidly expanding market for ultra small analog and mixed signal integrated circuits used in cell phone, PDA, and RFID applications” said Fred Kinder, President of Best Electronics. “Best Electronics was able to integrate the new Chip Scale Packaging service for our customers because we made the necessary capital investments in new equipment last year during the downturn. The centerpiece of our new CSP line is the high speed Ismeca WT-32 die inspection and tape & reel equipment. “
