Advanced packaging designs are approaching the physical limitations of wafers as AI, HPC, and heterogeneous integration rapidly evolve. Subsequently, Panel Level Packaging (PLP) technology has drawn significant industry attention. Global semiconductor equipment manufacturer Lam Research announced the official establishment of its PLP Center of Excellence (CoE) in Salzburg, Austria, aimed at strengthening PLP process R&D capabilities and driving scalable manufacturing solutions to meet advanced packaging demands in the AI era.
