Semi-Pac and i2a Announce Strategic Partnership

 

Semi-Pac Can Now Provide Prototype through Volume Production in Silicon Valley

Sunnyvale, CA – March 18, 2014 – Semi-Pac today announced a strategic partnership with Silicon Valley volume assembly house i2a.  Semi-Pac has been providing advanced semiconductor packaging design and rapid prototype services can now offer its customers a smooth transition into Silicon Valley based volume production.  i2a can now offer its customers Semi-Pac’s advanced packaging engineering capabilities and services.  Having both prototype engineering and volume production in Silicon Valley can shave months off new product introduction schedules.

In today’s rapid product development cycles, time to market is often the difference between a product’s success or failure.  With many of today’s products containing higher electronics content, cost effective and reliable advanced semiconductor packaging is often a development problem that must be solved.  Many product companies do not possess this expertise.  Semi-Pac has been providing this expertise since 1988 and has numerous packaging and assembly patents. 

John MacKay, Semi-Pac’s President says: “This strategic partnership with i2a enables us to provide our customers with a smooth transition from prototype through volume production.  We will manage the process through the product bring-up and manage the transition into i2a’s volume production facility.  If the volume reaches a point that requires offshore manufacturing, we will manage that transition too.  Our goal is to engineer the most cost effective and reliable solution and to reduce the overall product development schedule.”

Victor Batinovich, President and CEO of i2a says: “Semi-Pac complements our in-house engineering capabilities to give us world-class design through volume production capabilities.  Semi-Pac’s very talented engineering team consistently delivers innovative solutions to challenging packaging and assembly problems.  Combining the strengths of both companies gives our customers an unbeatable team to get to market with the best packaging solutions.”
