Chip packaging companies and package producers


Introduction

The chip making process:
  1. Design the chip
  2. Make the die (Done at a foundry, also called fab.)
  3. Breake the wafer into individual IC*'s
  4. Package the IC*'s
  5. Market and sell the IC*'s

A lot of the big companies do all of these steps, but some do only part of it and have part of the process done by others. After the wafers have been made at a foundry (also called fab) they are broken down into individual IC*'s and they are packaged into DIP packages for example.
Designing the IC*'s is usually very high-tech and strategically important so it's done in the country of the company itself. Making the die is less high-tech and is sometimes done in a less high tech country, with slightly lower wages or in a poorer part of the country itself. The breaking and packaging is usually done in a country where the wages are low but the people are willing to work like the poorer parts of East Asia. The Philippines and Malaysia are typical examples. Look at the bottom sites of packaged chips for more examples.
On this page you will find companies that break-up wafers and package the IC*'s.
