3D InCites Podcast Francoise von Trapp

Glass has long been explored as an alternative substrate material to organic laminates and silicon. As high-performance computing and chiplets HPC push the boundaries of existing technology, they are demanding innovative packaging solutions, beginning with innovative substrate materials. This is paving the way for glass. In this episode, Françoise von Trapp and Richard Noack discuss the highlights and takeaways from the recent webinar, Evolving HPC and Chiplet Packaging with Glass,...
