In this way, they retain the ability to innovate in-house, and stay one step ahead in terms of housing development.
Smaller manufacturers, and some so-called "fabless" manufacturers specializing in complex circuit design, use subcontractors exclusively for component assembly. Package development is then carried out in partnership with the subcontractor, the largest of whom (such as Amkor Technology, ASE Global, STATS ChipPAC and SPIL) compete with the major manufacturers in this field....
