\nThis accolade is IMAPS\u2019s highest, most prestigious annual technical honor, and is awarded to the individual who, in the opinion of the Daniel C. Hughes, Jr. Memorial Award Selection Committee, has the greatest combination of technical achievements related to microelectronics, combined with outstanding contributions supporting the microelectronics industry, academic achievement, or support and service to IMAPS.\n<\/p>\n

\nBill Chen is chief architect for technology strategy, lead mentor, and hands-on engineer for strategy implementation at ASE, blazing the trail for packaging innovators and innovation across the electronic industry ecosystem. His strategy portfolio includes SiP, copper wire-bond, 2.5D packaging, and fan-out wafer-level packaging, all game-changing technologies brought to high volume production to address new demands for emerging applications in IoT, cloud computing, autonomous automotive, AI and smart mobility. Previously, Bill spent over thirty-five years at IBM, where he pioneered the concept and implementation of predictive verified modeling incorporating materials science, micromechanical, and finite element for design and manufacturing benefiting generations of packaging products, from BGAs to mainframe systems.\n<\/p>\n

\nBill is a past president of the IEEE Electronics Packaging Society and was the co-chair of the Packaging & Assembly TWG at ITRS until its closure by SIA in 2016. He now chairs the Heterogeneous Integration Roadmap, co-sponsored by three IEEE Societies (EPS, EDS & Photonics) together with SEMI and ASME EPPD. He is the recipient of IEEE Electronics Packaging Technology Field Award and ASME InterPACK Award. Besides being ASE Fellow, he has also been elected IEEE Fellow, ASME Fellow, and now IMAPS Fellow. Living by his motto, \u201cChallenge things that are difficult but worthwhile,\u201d Bill is driven to inspire young engineers to always maintain an enthusiastic attitude while facing challenges, which once overcome will sustain the prosperity and impact of the semiconductor industry.\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cBill Chen is not only a prominent advocate for technology innovation and collaborative road mapping but has dedicated much of professional life to mentorship across the microelectronics ecosystem,\u201d said Dr. Tien Wu, CEO, ASE, Inc. He continued, \u201cIt is altogether fitting that Bill should receive this recognition from the IMAPS community and all of us at ASE salute his accomplishment.\u201d\n<\/p>\n

\n\u201cIMAPS is delighted to bestow this honor on Bill Chen, who continues to have significant impact within the IMAPS community especially related to his chairmanship of the Heterogeneous Integration Roadmap,\u201d said Brian Schieman, Executive Director, IMAPS. He added, \u201cThis award is very well-deserved, and we are excited to recognize Bill in front of his peers in IMAPS and throughout our industry.\u201d\n<\/p>\n
