ORLANDO, Fla. and SEOUL, South Korea, May 27, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — LG Innotek (CEO
Moon Hyuksoo) announced on May 27 that it will participate in the 2026 Electronic
Components and Technology Conference (ECTC) to showcase its next-generation semiconductor
package substrate technologies to global semiconductor companies.

Now in its 76th year, ECTC is the world’s largest international conference on semiconductor
packaging technologies, organized by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics
Engineers (IEEE) in the United States. This year’s event will be held over four 
days from May 26 to 29 (local time) in Orlando, Florida.

It will bring together around 2,000 industry professionals from 20 countries and
135 leading global semiconductor companies, including Intel, Amkor, ASE, and IBM,
to share the latest trends in semiconductor packaging technologies.

LG Innotek, which is taking part in ECTC for the first time this year, will operate
an exhibition booth during the event to showcase its differentiated technologies
to leading global technology customers, featuring two large FC-BGA package substrate
samples and products currently under development.

In tandem with the rapid expansion of AI training and inference workloads and dramatic
increase in the use of tokens (the fundamental unit of data processed by AI models)
driven by agentic AI, the performance requirements for semiconductor chips are reaching
new heights. The high-bandwidth, low-latency processing of massive volumes of data
by high-end semiconductor chips is driving the need to integrate many more circuits
and components onto each substrate. Consequently, FC-BGA substrates are becoming
larger and more complex, with higher layer counts and greater circuit integration
density.

At this year’s ECTC, LG Innotek will showcase a large FC‑BGA substrate sample (3.3
×3.3inch), along with an ultra‑large FC‑BGA substrate sample with an area approximately
40% greater.

The chip-embedding technology applied to this large FC‑BGA substrate is expected
to draw particular attention. Previously, semiconductor chips were mounted on top
of the substrate, whereas the new technology embeds the chips within the substrate
itself. By shortening the signal path, this approach reduces power delivery loss(
including resistive loss and IR drop) by approximately 25%. As a result, it can 
reduce power loss in servers and increase overall power efficiency.

Furthermore, LG Innotek plans to showcase its Radio Frequency System‑in‑Package (
RF‑SiP) substrates for 5G communications, manufactured using proprietary technologies
that the company has accumulated over the past 50 years.

As smartphone manufacturers continue to add new functions to their phones, an ever‑
increasing number of components must be mounted inside each device. This, in turn,
makes it increasingly difficult to continue reducing the thickness of smartphones.

LG Innotek has drawn strong interest from the industry by applying copper column(
Cu‑Post) technology to this product for the first time in the industry, fundamentally
shifting the paradigm of semiconductor substrate technology.

Cu‑Post technology connects the substrate to the mainboard through tiny copper columns
formed on the semiconductor substrate with solder balls on top of them. This column
structure allows the solder balls to be arranged at a much higher density, significantly
increasing circuit integration density and allowing the substrate to be nearly 20%
thinner. This breakthrough has made it possible to deliver high‑performance, ultra‑
slim smartphones, overcoming a long‑standing challenge for the industry.

Jeffrey Cho, senior vice president of the Package Solution Business Unit, said: "
We expect ECTC to be a key milestone for promoting the competitiveness of our next‑
generation substrate technologies to global customers while forging new collaborations
and expanding business opportunities. LG Innotek aims to grow its package solution
business into a core business segment worth 2.0 billion USD by 2030, powered by 
high-value‑added semiconductor substrates that are enjoying strong global demand."
