Amkor Technology announced a multi-year strategic partnership with NVIDIA to develop advanced semiconductor packaging and test technologies for next-generation AI and accelerated computing platforms. Under the agreement, NVIDIA will provide a prepayment to support the expansion of Amkor’s U.S. advanced packaging capacity, part of a $1.5 billion multi-year advanced packaging and development agreement.
NVIDIA and Amkor will align their long-term technology roadmaps to advance high-density interconnects and next-generation heterogeneous integration. Amkor has already supplied advanced packaging solutions supporting NVIDIA’s data center processors, networking chipsets, and accelerated computing systems, and the expanded collaboration is intended to bring new packaging technologies to market as demand for AI infrastructure grows. NVIDIA’s capacity agreement supports the expansion of Amkor’s U.S. operations in Arizona, complementing the company’s existing manufacturing footprint across Asia.
