Reviewed Sep 12, 2024The course is well-organized and informative. However, the quiz questions are not matched to the modules, and many appear before the lectures.
Thank you for the opportunity, I work in the field already. Its better insite.
Introduction to Semiconductor Packaging
This course will cover various aspects of microelectronics and nanoelectronics. This field aims to advance and improve the functionality of electronic devices by scaling transistors to smaller feature sizes. The course will introduce you to essential concepts such as length scales, transistor actions, and feature sizes of integrated circuits. The course will also look at historical observations and trends using Moore’s Law, which currently guides and predict development of the Semiconductor industry. Most importantly, our goal is to highlight why packaging is so important and relevant today. Furthermore, we will also explore the anatomy and function of a semiconductor package, starting with substrate-level package interconnection to the motherboard. We will also describe features as we differentiate various types of packages and how they differ in materials, design, and reliability.

Reviewed Aug 29, 2024Nice that it provides links to interesting articles. Too much factual information but little focus on how things actually work.

Reviewed Jun 11, 2024Short introductory course; hits the spot for an intro, although could use more images to display the different IC package types, assembly processes, etc. Original content from ASU/Intel in this course is VERY limited; majority of your time is spent reading web articles written by others from around the world. Quiz questions are sometimes confusing, and are often taken directly from text or instructors words, without appreciation for the context used. Could use some improvement in creating and selecting quiz questions. Please review the usage of English in the typed sections and quizzes. It doesn't detract from the overall content, but is a distraction and leads people to incorrect language usage...

Reviewed Oct 22, 2025This is the best short introduction I’ve seen so far on semiconductor packaging! I learned in just 10 hours what I’ve been struggling to understand for the past two years. The explanations were clear, concise, and practical. Huge thanks to the two excellent instructors — I’m very grateful for this course!
