Etymology
Amkor self-publishes that the name "Amkor" is a portmanteau of the words "America" and "Korea".[7]
History
Amkor's origins can be traced back to ANAM Industries, a business in Seoul dealing with imported Japanese goods, including bicycles, and founded by Hyang-Soo Kim in 1935. In March 1968, ANAM Industries underwent a transformation into ANAM Industrial Co. Ltd., becoming South Korea's first semiconductor business. One month later, his son Joo-Jin (James) Kim founded Amkor Electronics, Inc. and inaugurated its sales office in Philadelphia. Its semiconductor production and export began in 1970. In 1998, Amkor began publicly trading on Nasdaq.[7]
In 2000, Amkor acquired Integra Technologies, an Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly And Test (OSAT) provider in United States.[8] In 2005, Amkor spun off Integra Technologies.[9]
In February 2016, Amkor fully acquired J-Devices Corp, the largest Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly And Test (OSAT) provider in Japan.[10]
In June 2017, Amkor Technology was recognized as Supplier of the Year for 2016 by Qualcomm Technologies for a second consecutive year.[11]
Amkor Technology has competitiveness for chip assembly by thermal compression as well as wafer level packaging. In September 2018, Amkor Technology opened a manufacturing and test plant at Longtan Science Park in Taiwan.[12]
In 2019, Amkor Technology was ranked 2nd in overall revenue in the OSAT (Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly and Test) market.
- ASE Technology – $11.87 Billion
- Amkor Technology – $7.1 Billion
- JCET – $3.97 Billion
- SPIL – $2.79 Billion
- Powertech Technology – $2.17 Billion
A $2 billion factory for advanced packaging of chips from TSMC in Arizona was announced in November 2023.[13]
