Lam Research has opened a research lab in Salzburg, Austria, to advance a chip packaging technology that promises to increase chip density and cut costs, as the company looks to capitalize on surging AI demand for processors. The U.S. chipmaking tools supplier said on Wednesday that the Salzburg facility will focus on panel-level packaging, which replaces the semiconductor industry's traditional circular silicon wafers with square panels. Square panels can eliminate the dead space, allowing chipmakers to produce more chips per surface at a lower cost per unit — a crucial advantage as AI drives chip shortages.

ASML expects to see the first products created on the company's new High-NA machines within months, the chief executive of the world's top computer chip equipment maker, Christophe Fouquet, said on Tuesday. The tool will bring down costs for patterning, or creating the circuitry of the most advanced chips, for both logic and memory applications, Fouquet said, speaking at a conference in Belgium organised by research firm imec. Fouquet's remarks come weeks after top customer TSMC said High-NA tools, which can cost up to $400 million each, were too expensive.
