IEEE CPMT Society Phoenix Chapter - meeting announcement ------------------------------------------------------- Date: Sep 22nd, 2003, Monday Speaker: Mr.Eric Tosaya, Procket Networks, Milpitas, CA Topic: Network VLSI Packaging Location: Motorola, 2100 E. Elliot Road, Tempe AZ (Group Conference Room) Agenda: 5:30-6:00 p.m. - Social/Refreshments; 6:00-7:00 p.m. - Presentation; 7:00 p.m. - Dinner IEEE Members & Non-members all are welcome to attend. ABSTRACT Historically ASICs have been used in multi-gigabit systems found in today?s networks. The next generation of networking systems requires a level of performance that exceeds the capabilities of ASICs. COT VLSI are needed to achieve the density and performance for the next generation of networking equipment. These COT VLSI devices drive a complex mix of package performance requirements such as very high densities of GHz speed signals, high power dissipation, stringent signal & power integrity specs and many years of 24/7 operational reliability. These demands require high pincount customized packaging to meet the next generation of network systems. This talk will focus on a core router system that uses six VLSI devices created based on a COT flow. The basic requirements of the router, which drove the VLSI definition, will be reviewed, followed by a discussion on how the needs of the VLSI led to the selection and design methodology developed for the 58mm HiTCE CGA packages. Included will be an overview of the electrical and reliability data for this package family. BIOGRAPHY Mr. Eric Tosaya has been responsible for VLSI packaging development for over three years at Procket Networks, a core router company based in Milpitas, CA, as the manager of its VLSI packaging development group. Eric has held similar positions at Advanced Micro Devices, NexGen, LSI Logic and Intel. Eric started working on assembly and packaging at Fairchild?s bipolar division after obtaining his Masters degree in Ceramic Engineering from the University of Washington. --------------------------------------------------- Best Regards, Sam Karikalan, Asst.
