Market sources report that SpaceX, the low-earth orbit satellite giant founded by Tesla CEO Elon Musk, is accelerating its expansion into fan-out panel-level packaging (FOPLP). The company aims to establish a new advanced packaging factory “built in Texas.” Before the Texas facility becomes operational, orders are currently being handled by STMicroelectronics. Due to strong demand, overflow orders have reportedly been subcontracted to Taiwan’s major panel manufacturer Innolux.
