MICROCHIPS, MEMS UND LED: BUILDING BLOCKS FOR TECHNOLOGICAL PRODUCT ADVANCEMENT

Digital Lifestyle	- The "Digital Lifestyle" is characterized by permanent internet connectivity and convergence of media - Mobile devices like smartphones and tablet PCs provide this capability at affordable cost - New device generations offer higher functionality
E-Mobility	- Alternative transportation / mobility solutions are getting more traction with attractive price / performance ratios - EVs, Hybrid-Cars, Segways, E-Bikes, but also trains drive the need for power devices but also high performance ICs
Energy Efficiency	- Increase environmental awareness and rising energy prices and fuel the demand for energy efficient solutions in electricity usage i.e. lighting - Energy efficiency in industrial production - Smart energy management in household applications safes energy

With its strong position in the fast growing target markets 3D Integration / Advanced Packaging, LED and MEMS, SUSS MicroTec can benefit from the market developments:

Advanced Packaging	Wafer level packaging and flip chip is expected to remain more robust than the overall market, primarily driven by mobile devices like smart phones and tablets
3D Integration (TSV)	Transition to production volume in the years to come
Compound Semiconductors	LED, MEMS, RF, Optoelectronics, III-V Power are expected to remain robust based on smartphone and tablet growth and will drive further demand for advanced packaging solutions

Segment growth 2011 - 2016E CAGR ~ 15% (Gartner and industry estimates)

SCALING TECHNOLOGIES FROM 2D TO 3D

2D Packaging 2.5D Packaging 3D Integration (TSV) - Combining of several (and heterogeneous) semiconductor components on an interposer addresses limitations of traditional shrinking - Increased packaging density - Reduced footprint - Complementary technology to Moore's Law - The extension beyond the conventional shrink roadmap is called "More than Moore" - Packaging becomes key enabler for scaling and some manufacturing value is shifting from silicon to the package - Performance and complexity increase combined with smaller footprint - Reduced energy consumption - Increased performance and complexity of ICs by shrinking transistor geometry according to Moore's Law - New technologies like EUV and multiple pattering allow further scaling - Technical challenges and limitations make it increasingly more difficult and expensive to reduce the feature size

SUSS MicroTec"s equipment and process solutions enable 2D shrinking ("Moore's Law") and 3D stacking ("More than Moore")

LITHOGRAPHY COMPETENCY

• Increasing chip performance requires the adoption of innovative lithography technologies in the semiconductor backend
• Not one single exposure technology fits all needs at the same time
• The newly acquired Stepper/Scanner products supplement our Mask Aligner product line and enlarges our technology portfolio by the key competencies UV-projection lithography and laser ablation
• SUSS MicroOptics S.A. adds key know how for critical lithography performance improvements

EXPOSURE SOLUTIONS

Only SUSS MicroTec offers complete exposure solutions for the mid-/back-end
