  • During the first quarter, Ultratech announced two Superfast 4G+ orders: one from a leading memory manufacturer in Asia to be used for high-volume production of advanced 3D NAND flash memory chips and another from a major leading foundry for the development of 3D inspection and process control of its leading-edge FinFET processes.
  • In February, Ultratech announced that it had received a multiple system order from a leading outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) company for its AP300E lithography systems to be utilized for various advanced packaging applications including copper pillar, wafer-level packaging (WLP) and emerging technologies including fan-out WLP and silicon interposers to support growth driven by mobile devices.
