MPW / Shuttle access

Sai Micro TSV MPW

Plan a TSV multi-project wafer run at Sai Micro through TOMPW Service. We coordinate shared-mask access, EDA sign-off, shuttle scheduling and the downstream packaging or test path for global chip teams.

Why TSV

TSV is one of the process options TOMPW coordinates as a shared-mask MPW run at the partner foundry. We handle slot selection, EDA checks and logistics so your design reaches the line on schedule.

What a TSV MPW at Sai Micro involves

A TSV MPW (multi-project wafer) shuttle places several customer designs on one shared mask set, so each team pays only for its portion of the wafer. TOMPW Service handles slot selection, DRC/LVS review and logistics so your GDSII reaches Sai Micro's line on schedule.

Notes for TSV programs

Sai Micro is the China-based MEMS manufacturing arm of Sai MicroElectronics; Silex Microsystems (Sweden, already a TOMPW partner) is its subsidiary.
MEMS engagements are process- and design-based rather than standard CMOS MPW shuttles; TOMPW can help scope a Sai Micro MEMS program.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Working with Sai Micro TSV MPW through TOMPW

Can TOMPW arrange a TSV MPW shuttle at Sai Micro?

Yes. TOMPW coordinates TSV MPW and shuttle access at Sai Micro for overseas teams, handling slot selection, EDA checks and logistics so your design reaches the shared mask on schedule.

What does a TSV MPW run at Sai Micro typically include?

A TSV MPW run bundles your design onto a shared reticle with other projects, covering mask share, wafer fabrication at Sai Micro, and standard probe. Packaging, final test and NTO transition are planned separately with TOMPW.

How long does a TSV MPW cycle take at Sai Micro?

Cycle time depends on Sai Micro's shuttle cadence for TSV, usually a few months from mask data to returned wafers. Missing a window means waiting for the next one, so TOMPW recommends booking early.

What comes after a TSV MPW at Sai Micro?

After a successful TSV MPW, teams typically move to NTO or full-mask production. TOMPW helps plan that transition, including package selection, test development and volume ramp through Sai Micro and downstream partners.
