Industry & Occupation
Classification
Summary
A job responsible for the manufacturing process of encapsulating semiconductor chips with materials such as resin to form packages.
Description
Semiconductor encapsulation workers are responsible for the process of filling chips with epoxy resin, etc., and sealing packages through mold forming by heating and pressurization. After forming, they perform trimming, gate cutting, appearance inspection, and discharge products that meet specifications from the line. They are also required to monitor production line operations, detect and respond to defects or equipment abnormalities early. Work in clean rooms, periodic equipment maintenance, and safety and health management are also part of the job duties.
Future Outlook
With the increasing demand for semiconductors, stable job openings are expected. Due to advances in miniaturization and 3D packaging technology, there is a trend toward requiring more advanced encapsulation techniques and knowledge of automated equipment.
