"H-Cube solution, which is jointly developed with Samsung Electro-mechanics (SEMCO) and Amkor Technology, is suited to high-performance semiconductors that need to integrate a large number of silicon dies,” said Moonsoo Kang, senior vice president and Head of Foundry Market Strategy Team at Samsung Electronics. "By expanding and enriching the foundry ecosystem, we will provide various package solutions to find a breakthrough in the challenges our customers are facing."
“In today’s environment where system integration is increasingly required and substrate supplies are constrained, Samsung Foundry and Amkor Technology have successfully co-developed H-Cube to overcome these challenges,” said JinYoung Kim, senior vice president of Global R&D Center at Amkor Technology. “This development lowers barriers to entry in the HPC/AI market and demonstrates successful collaboration and partnership between the foundry and outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) company.”
H-Cube Structure and Features
2.5D packaging enables logic chips or high-bandwidth memory (HBM) to be placed on top of a silicon interposer in a small form factor. Samsung’s H-Cube technology features a hybrid substrate combined with a fine-pitch substrate which is capable of fine bump connection, and a High-Density Interconnection (HDI) substrate, to implement large sizes into 2.5D packaging.
With the recent increase in specifications required in the HPC, AI, and networking application market segments, large-area packaging is becoming important as the number and size of chips mounted in one package increases or high-bandwidth communication is required. For attachment and connection of silicon dies including the interposer, fine-pitch substrates is essential but prices rise significantly following an increase in size.
When integrating six or more HBMs, the difficulty in manufacturing the large-area substrate increases rapidly, resulting in decreased efficiency. Samsung solved this problem by applying a hybrid substrate structure in which HDI substrates that are easy to implement in large-area is overlapped under a high-end fine-pitch substrate.
By decreasing the pitch of solder ball, which electrically connects the chip and the substrate, by 35% compared to the conventional ball pitch, the size of fine-pitch substrate can be minimized, while adding HDI substrate (module PCB) under the fine-pitch substrate to secure connectivity with the system board.
In addition, to enhance the reliability of the H-Cube solution, Samsung applied its proprietary signal/power integrity analysis technology that can stably supply power while minimizing the signal loss or distortion when stacking multiple logic chips and HBMs.
Looking ahead, in cooperation with its ecosystem partners, Samsung will hold its 3rd Annual ‘Samsung Advanced Foundry Ecosystem (SAFETM ) Forum' virtually on November 17 (PST).

New Needle-Free Treatment Option for Life-Threatening Anaphylaxis, EURneffy®, Now Available in the UK20.10.2025 10:01:00 CEST | Press release
For decades, traditional adrenaline auto-injectors (AAIs) have been the only available treatment for anaphylaxis—a life-threatening allergic reaction.1,2 Yet from today, the UK’s first needle-free emergency anaphylaxis treatment, the EURneffy® nasal adrenaline spray, is available on prescription.3 This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: https://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20251020480135/en/ EURneffy® 2 mg nasal spray offers a simple-to-use,3,4 pocket-sized alternative to traditional AAIs, with the potential to transform the lives of those with severe allergies in the UK. It is designed to be portable and ready-to-use in emergencies,3 offering a new alternative to traditional AAIs, including for those who struggle with needles or need a more convenient option they can rely on. EURneffy® also has a longer shelf life and can withstand temperature changes better than traditional AAIs,3,5 meaning fewer trips to the GP for a new prescription. Simon Williams, Ch
Leading Global Businesses Unite to Launch Carbon Measures20.10.2025 10:00:00 CEST | Press release
New coalition to advance global carbon accounting framework and champion market-based solutions that drive emissions reductionsAmy Brachio, former Ernst & Young global vice chair and head of sustainability, named CEO Carbon Measures, a new global coalition representing major businesses from diverse industries and geographies, launched today to establish a more accurate carbon accounting framework and drive market-based solutions to reduce emissions at the lowest cost. The coalition’s work will leverage sound science and the principles of financial accounting to help enable a ledger-based carbon accounting framework that is substantially more accurate, eliminates double counting and addresses current information gaps. By better tracking emissions through the global economy, this new framework will help businesses differentiate their products and governments make more informed policy decisions. Carbon Measures is calling for new policy that unlocks innovation, competition and the power o
