The market for wireless technology continues to expand, placing ever-increasing demands on the semiconductors which power and enable them. November's event will focus on the interface and interplay between economic goals and technological realities. The go-to-market decision between SiP (System-in-Package) and SoC (System-on-Chip) is based on both economic and technical considerations and depends on many factors such as required volume, target yield, market opportunity, and technical feasibility. Examples of each architecture will be presented and the speakers will describe how they made their initial SiP versus SoC decision, circumvented technological challenges, and will offer their perspectives on how semiconductor technology might evolve in order to meet future market demands. |
