Swissbit
Founded in 2001 as a buy-out from Siemens Semiconductor, Swissbit is the leading European manufacturer of memory, security and embedded IoT solutions for high-reliability applications.
Swissbit has competencies in custom System-in-Package (SiP) and Multi-Chip Modules (MCM) for the integration of various functionalities in one chip-package, as well as assembly and testing to provide easy to integrate and industrial-grade products. The manufacturing facility in Berlin, Germany, for advanced packaging, assembly and test solutions provides a secure supply chain environment.
Swissbit Germany's competencies are hardware development from IC/PCB design to electronic devices, system & software development for system on chip or embedded solutions and the leading process- and test development with own equipment manufacturing for memory test.
Role
Swissbit’s role in the project is to enhance the reliability and quality of a continuous European supply chain, spanning from chip/chiplet substrates (such as ABF and PCB) to the packaging of complex System-in-Package (SiP) architectures transitioning to System-on-Package (SoP) architectures with chiplets. The company is actively investigating advanced SiP technologies tailored for NAND Flash Storage, AIoT/IIoT applications, and edge computing. Additionally, Swissbit contributes to the realization of process automation and smart manufacturing, and supports the manufacturing of chiplet solutions based on organic substrates in collaboration with AT&S.
Key Contribution
Swissbit’s key contribution to the project lies in developing and offering advancing semiconductor packaging technologies within Europe. The company is expanding its technological capabilities and production infrastructure to support the transition from System-in-Package (SiP) to System-on-Package (SoP), enabling the scalable manufacturing of complex electronic components. A major focus is on the development and industrialization of innovative contacting and encapsulation technologies. By leveraging heterogeneous chiplet integration, Swissbit is helping unlock new market opportunities for SMEs and large enterprises in AIoT/IIoT edge applications and high-performance computing (HPC), especially for use in harsh environments.
