3D Integration Technology

RTI is a leader in 3D integration technology, having developed a wide range of 3D process capabilities and achieved successful demonstrations of 3D integrated circuit (IC) stacks, advanced silicon interposer wafers, and 3D passive device structures. We have been conducting research and development in 3D integration since 1999, building on decades of experience in the development of advanced microfabrication and packaging technologies.

We work with a wide variety of clients and partners, bringing integrated process, design, testing, and analysis capabilities to projects involving custom application-driven development. We offer access to our 3D technology platform through joint development projects, prototyping services, and small volume production.
