WILMINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Onto Innovation Inc. (NYSE: ONTO) (“Onto Innovation,” “Onto,” or the “Company”) today announced a total order backlog of $500 million comprised of more than $100 million for its lithography and inspection products in support of the emerging heterogeneous packaging sector, which covers technology designed for 2.5D and next-generation 3D packages and those using hybrid bonding as a method of connecting stacked chips.

Heterogeneous packaging is expected to be the fastest growing segment within the advanced packaging market, driving a growth rate of 11% CAGR for advanced package substrates over the next four years and reaching an estimated $13 billion in revenue in 2025, according to TechSearch International. The rise in heterogeneous packaging as a new industry standard will be broad and industry-transforming, delivering the increased performance needed for data center processors, edge compute and mobile processors, as well as advanced specialty packages needed for the next-generation RF and image sensors used in mobile devices and demanded by expanding 5G technology.
“The key to this market is the ability to increase interconnect density while simultaneously achieving high yields. The Company has received orders of nearly $100 million for its new JetStep® X500 lithography system for shipment in 2022 and 2023 to support 2.5D heterogeneous packaging on advanced substrate panels,” said Elvino DaSilveira, vice president and lithography business manager. “Onto Innovation’s lithography, inspection and software product suite provides an integrated solution that enables our customers to achieve the necessary precision and repeatability required to bring these technologies from R&D to high-volume production.”
Onto Innovation also received over $12 million in orders for its Dragonfly® G3 inspection system. This leading-edge inspection system offers the sub-micron metrology resolution needed for advanced packages using the new hybrid bonding technology. Hybrid bonding is a key element in the next-generation of heterogeneous packaging and allows for true 3D die-to-die stacking. Early adopters of this packaging technology include a leading-edge manufacturer of a high-definition CIS device, which is bonded directly to a logic chip produced by a top-tier foundry.
“We are partnering with our customers to move beyond providing them with the most precise data streams for process control. We are now offering them analytics across fabs through our Discover® software, which enables higher yield bonding between chips from different fab locations,” said Ju Jin, senior vice president and general manager of the inspection business. “This is another example of Onto Innovation’s leadership in delivering flexible, high-performance products spanning the entire manufacturing process across factories in the value chain.”
