Foundry and Process Technology :

As design complexity increases, packaging and testing represent a significant portion of the overall chip cost. KeyASIC works closely with industry partners to provide a wide selection of advanced and cost-effective packages and test offerings, such as high-speed interface, low power dissipation, a more excellent choice, and flexibility, translating to minimum cost for our customers.

Package Options

Partnering with leading first and second tier packaging partners like ASE and OSE, KeyASIC provides a wide range of package turnkey solutions from complex System-in-Package (SiP), Multi-Chip Module (MCM), Ball-Grid-Array (BGA) to the cost-sensitive legacy Quad Flat Pack (QFP) to satisfy customers' increasing demands for smaller sizes, more I/Os, and lower costs.

Testing Program and Test Environment

Test program and environment prepared for each ASIC prototype are developed and monitored carefully by a group of experienced in-house engineers. At the mass production stage, when all of the settings of a test program are confirmed, the test program and the production documents are sent to our test partners to ensure accuracy before production begins. Only after careful verification, will the test program be formally released to our test partner. Various tester choices are supported for different performance/cost requirements through qualified outside partners who meet customers' capacity and cost objectives.

KeyASIC is fully committed to providing our customers with manufacturing flexibility, optimal value, quickest time-to-market silicon solutions, and a dedication to customer service with our unique one-stop production management expertise.
