Tessera Solved a Critical Chip Packaging Problem
Packaging enables chips to be attached to
circuit boards
As chips became faster, the package became
a limiting factor and had to be made smaller
With packages near chip size, reliability
became a significant issue
We invented better chip scale package
technologies -
smaller, faster and more
reliable
