The Firefly G3 system provides automated inspection and 3D metrology for advanced IC substrates and panel level packaging, delivering high resolution and productivity for demanding applications like high-performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing and machine/deep learning.
The Firefly G3 platform offers multiple imaging modes, including Onto Innovation’s patented Clearfind® Technology, a technique to detect residue defects on metal and metal defects on organic layers. The combination of high sensitivity inspection, 2D/3D metrology and on tool color image capture capability in a single platform reduces capital investment requirements and provides a reliable pathway for panel-based process applications that require high I/O counts and multiple-chip integration.
Integration with Onto Innovation’s Discover® Defect and TrueADC® software quickly turns defect data into actionable process control, improves defect classification and reduces manual review. It enables our customers to develop, learn and analyze new processes reliably while significantly improving their product delivery time to market.
Die shift on reconstituted panels can significantly impact both productivity and yield. To address this challenge, we use a parallel die placement measurement process and advanced analytics to provide a means to balance productivity against yield. Our integrated lithography cell, featuring Firefly inspection, StepFAST software, and JetStep Lithography, delivers industry-leading throughput and yield for fan-out panel level packaging.
It is well understood that advanced packaging applications require high performance, low cost, increased functionality and improved reliability that 2.5D and 3D packaging solutions provide. Fan-out panel-level packaging (FOPLP) is one of the technologies that has the potential to meet these packaging requirements.
The JetStep S3500 system is designed to provide OSATS with a high-volume manufacturing advanced packaging lithography solution. For substrates up to 720mm x 600mm, it supports fan-out panel level packaging.
The JetStep X500 system is designed to provide AICS and OSAT manufacturers with a high-volume manufacturing lithography solution for heterogeneous integration. The JetStep X500 system exposes panel-type substrates made of CCL, FR4, composite, glass or other materials.
The Firefly G3 system provides automated inspection and 3D metrology for advanced IC substrates and panel level packaging, delivering high resolution and productivity for demanding applications like high-performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing and machine/deep learning.
An advanced feed-forward lithography software solution for fan-out panel level packaging that enhances yield and throughput by correcting die placement errors through external measurements, predictive analytics and adaptive shot control.
During the processing of organic (CCL) advanced IC substrates (AICS) the substrates become distorted which impacts the overlay of Via to RDL pad structures. To solve this problem, the stepper must adjust the alignment solution to match the previous layer’s distortion by measuring the overlay. Proprietary software provides the user with the ability to adjust each zone of the AICS with independent offsets.
The growing demand for heterogeneous integration is driven by the 5G market. This includes smartphones, data centers, servers, high-performance computing (HPC), artificial intelligence (AI) and internet of things (IoT) applications. Next generation packaging technologies require tighter overlay to accommodate larger package sizes with fine-pitch chip interconnects on large-format flexible panels.
Designed for advanced IC substrates (AICS), it incorporates a large field exposure area with a large depth of focus. Proprietary software enables independent zone offset adjustments across the AICS.

Hybrid bonding enables ultra-dense 3D memory interconnects with up to 1,000x more connections than microbumps. Achieving high yield requires stringent process control, including monitoring topography and detecting particles, cracks and voids. Measuring dishing in copper pads provides valuable insight into surface conditions. Together, these process control insights contribute to improved device reliability and performance.
As demand grows for high-performance computing (HPC) and AI-driven applications, manufacturers are turning to hybrid bonding to enable the ultra-dense 3D integration required for next-generation chip architectures. This advanced packaging technology presents significant process challenges. Surface preparation must be precisely controlled to eliminate particles, excess recess, and copper pad dishing, all of which can compromise bond quality. During pre-annealing, particle-induced gaps and wide bonding gaps can prevent proper wafer contact. Post-annealing, the formation of dielectric and metal voids introduces further risks to electrical performance and long-term reliability.
