Article excerpt

Two years ago, Intel made a high-profile announcement that Glass Core Substrate (GCS) would become the core of next-generation advanced packaging, and planned to invest more than 1 billion US dollars to promote its industrialization. Today, this technology has entered the final qualification stage, but real commercial products have not yet emerged. As Samsung, SKC, TSMC, and Japanese material enterprises have successively announced mass production plans, the competition for glass substrates has evolved from "who first proposed the concept" to "who can deliver first". Judging from the currently public information, 2027-2030 will become a critical window period for the commercialization of glass substrates. This is not only a material upgrade, but also related to whether the ultra-large-size Chiplet, HBM and Co-Packaged Optics (CPO) in the AI era can continue to expand the packaging scale. Glass is not intended to replace silicon, but to replace the organic substrates widely used in current advanced packaging. Over the past decade, GPUs, CPUs and HBM have continuously adopted the Chiplet architecture, and the packaging area has expanded rapidly. Taking NVIDIA as an example, the Blackwell packaging area is about 2739 square millimeters, and the next-generation Rubin Ultra is expected to reach 7470 square millimeters, which is almost equivalent to the silicon and HBM combination...
