TDK Ventures, Inc. has invested in Silicon Box, a start-up based in Singapore that is focused on semiconductor chiplet packaging design and fabrication.
Silicon Box was co-founded Dr. Sehat Sutardja and Weili Dai, who previously founded Marvell, along with Dr. Byung Joon (BJ) Han, who was formerly CEO of STATS ChipPAC (acquired by JCET in 2015).
Silicon Box says its innovative, large format semiconductor package design and fabrication method enables up to 8x more chiplet devices per production unit, with 90+% yield – compared to industry alternatives, which top out around 60%.
TDK Ventures’ President Nicolas Sauvage commented, “TDK Ventures is excited to partner with the world-class team at Silicon Box. Their standout chiplet design is making waves in the industry, and they dalready have a proven concept in a 750,000 square foot facility to support production. We are ommitted to supporting their success for a positive impact on the world.”
Silicon Box CEO Dr. BJ Han also discussed the partnership saying, “Teaming with TDK Ventures is ideal for us, and we are looking forward to continuing what has already been an incredible collaboration. We have significant synergies with many of their business units, and in addition to their investment, we are excited to engage with their extensive network, subject matter experts, and industrial base. Bring on the TDK Goodness!”
