Sachin Tendulkar-backed RRP Electronics has forged a strategic alliance with US-based Deca Technologies, Inc to enhance its wafer-level packaging capabilities.
Under this collaboration, RRP Electronics will integrate Deca’s Wafer-Level Chip Scale Packaging and M-Series Fan-Out Wafer-Level Packaging technologies into its processes. This will elevate the company’s ability to deliver high-performance semiconductor solutions to customers worldwide.
RRP Electronics has expertise in assembling and testing semiconductor components. Deca Technologies is a leader in advanced semiconductor packaging with the backing of industry giants such as Qualcomm, Infineon, and ASE Group. The alliance may turnout to be a gateway to India’s booming electronics and semiconductor ecosystem.
Rajendra K Chodankar, Chairman & CEO, RRP Electronics said the company is investing in a large-scale Technology Transfer License Agreement with Deca, potentially on exclusive terms, to create a fully automated modern infrastructure to take semiconductor packaging in India to new heights.
“We aim to complete our qualification tests by August and foresee revenue exceeding $30 million (about ₹260 crore) in the second year of operations,” he said.
Ambitious plans
Tim Olson, Founder & CEO, Deca Technologies said the collaboration will accelerate RRP ambitious plans and strengthen India’s position in the global semiconductor value chain.
The Maharashtra government recently approved the company’s plan to invest ₹24,000 crore in two phases to establish a cutting-edge semiconductor manufacturing and assembly facility in the state. In phase 1, RRP Electronics is spearheading ₹12,035 crore, phase 1 Outsourced Semiconductor Assembly Test initiative.
Last September, RRP Electronics inaugurated a facility equipped with next-generation manufacturing technology. This initiative is expected to create about 4,000 jobs, bolstering the local economy and cementing Maharashtra’s status as a global semiconductor hub.
As India accelerates its semiconductor ambitions, RRP Electronics and Deca Technologies are poised to redefine the landscape, bringing cutting-edge packaging solutions, massive job creation, and a new era of technological leadership to the country, said the company.
