Nvidia&rsquo;s Blackwell GPU production for Q3-Q4 2024 reportedly faced delays due to yield issues with TSMC&rsquo;s CoWoS-L technology, specifically traced to Coefficient of Thermal Expansion (CTE) mismatches. This incident highlights the acute vulnerability of AI chip development to bottlenecks in advanced packaging. Now, industry giant SK hynix is reportedly eyeing Intel&rsquo;s Embedded Multi-die Interconnect Bridge (EMIB) technology for its High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) integration, a move that signals a significant diversification strategy and underscores the widening chasm between demand and capacity for established solutions like TSMC&rsquo;s CoWoS.</p>
