Advanced Semiconductor Engineering, Inc. Company Profile

Company Overview:

Advanced Semiconductor Engineering, Inc. (ASE) is an electronics manufacturing services (EMS) company that offers a range of semiconductor packaging and testing services for communications, computing, consumer electronics, industrial, and automotive markets. The company offers a portfolio of technology and solutions, including integrated circuit (IC) test program design, front-end engineering test, wafer probe, wafer bump, substrate design and supply, wafer level package, flip chip, system-in-package, final test and electronic manufacturing services.

It primarily operates in the US, Asia and Europe. The company operates through four business segments: Electronics manufacturing services (EMS), packaging, testing and others. ASE's EMS segment includes the operations of its subsidiary, Universal Scientific Group (USG). It provides integrated solutions for electronic manufacturing services in relation to computers, peripherals, communications, industrial, automotive, and storage and server applications.

The company's key products and services include motherboards for server and desktop personal computers (PCs); peripherals; port replicators; network attached storage; and technical services. It also offers wireless fidelity (WiFi); session initiation protocol (SiP) and hybrid SiP for communications applications; control boards for flat panel devices; automotive electronic manufacturing services; car light emitting diode (LED) lighting; regulator and rectifier; point-of-sale systems; and smart handheld devices. As of December 31, 2016, the EMS segment reported revenue of US$3,561.6 million or 42% of the company’s total revenue.

The packaging segment offers a range of package types, with a focus on advanced packaging solutions. ASE's packaging types include advanced packages, such as flip-chip ball grid array (BGA), flip-chip chip scale packages (CSP), aCSP (advanced chip scale packages), quad flat packages (QFP), thin quad flat packages (TQFP), bump chip carrier (BCC), quad flat no-lead (QFN) packages, aQFN (advanced QFN) and plastic BGA. In addition, the company provides 3D chip packages, such as MAP POP (package on package) and aMAP POP (advanced, laser ablation type), which enable customers to mount packages more easily. ASE also offers other forms of stacked die solutions in different package types such as stacked die QFN, hybrid BGAs containing stacked wire bond and FC die. It is also involved in providing 3D packages, such as substrate layer modification (2.1D) and substrate interposer (2.5D) through silicon chip stacking. In addition, the packaging segment provides IC wire bonding, including leadframe-based packages and substrate-based packages. It assembles SiP products, which involve the integration of more than one chip into the same package. In addition, the packaging services segment provides module assembly services, which combine one or more packaged semiconductors with other components in an integrated module. The end use applications for modules include cellular phones, personal digital assistant (PDAs), wireless local area network (LAN) applications, bluetooth applications, camera modules, automotive applications, toys, networking, storage, and power management.

The company also provides interconnect materials, which connect the input/output on the semiconductor dies to the printed circuit board. As of December 31, 2016, the packaging segment reported revenue of US$3,866.8 million or 45.6% of the company’s total revenue. The testing segment provides a range of semiconductor testing services, including front-end engineering testing, wafer probing, final testing of logic/mixed-signal/radio frequency (RF)/(2.5D/3D) module SiP/ micro electromechanical systems (MEMS)/discrete and other test-related services.

The company's front end engineering testing services include customized software development, electrical design validation, reliability analysis, and failure analysis. The segment's wafer probing is involved in visual inspection and electrical testing of the processed wafer for defects. The company also conducts final testing of logic/mixed-signal/RF/3D module SiP/MEMS/discrete semiconductors for wired, wireless and mobile communications, home entertainment and PC applications as well as a variety of consumer and application specific integrated circuits for various specialized applications. As of December 31, 2016, the testing segment reported revenue of US$834.3 million or 9.8% of the company’s total revenue. ASE's other test related services include electric interface board and mechanical test tool design, program conversion, program efficiency improvement, remote program debugging, burn-in testing, module sip testing, dry pack, and tape and reel.

In addition, the company provides drop shipment services for shipment of semiconductors directly to end users. ASE’s other segment activities includes substrate production and real estate business. As of December 31, 2016, the testing segment reported revenue of US$221.4 million or 2.6% of the company’s total revenue. In FY2016, the company generated 65.8% of the total revenue from the US region, followed by Taiwan with 14.1%, Asia with 10.9%, Europe with 8.5%, and Others with 0.7%.
