SHANGHAI , Dec. 6, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- This is the ninth year of USI''s entry into the smart wearable module segment and reaching a new level in the development of advanced packaging technology. Double-sided molding and thin-film molding are the latest technologies developed by USI. Double-sided molding optimizes the design of modules.

Mobile phones have long been the driving force of miniaturization. Nowadays, many fields of application have demonstrated the advantages of miniaturization technology and the demand is especially high in smart wearable devices. SiP (System-in-Package) technology has become a key enabler for highly integrated and miniaturized designs in smart watches, Bluetooth headsets and many new smart wearable products. USI continues to invest in R&D and has made significant breakthroughs in advanced SMT (Surface Mount Technology), molding, new cutting technology (combination of laser cutting and traditional saw blade cutting technology), and thin film sputtering technology.
