Dwyer Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Purdue University, explains what advanced chip packaging is and how it will keep advancements in this field powerful and cost-effective. Subbarayan says that chip packaging provides functionality of a system when you connect multiple chips together. Advanced packaging is when multiple smaller chips, or \u201cchiplets,\u201d come together and function as a single chip. Purdue is working with some of the largest semiconductor companies in the world to advance the chip packaging field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Media contact:<\/strong>&nbsp;Trevor Peters,&nbsp;<a href=\"mailto:peter237@purdue.edu\">peter237@purdue.edu<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=ldpRWRpXl_M&amp;t=6s\">learn more<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Indianapolis Motor Speedway, Purdue, NASA to host one of Indiana\u2019s largest total solar eclipse viewing events<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We are just a few days away from one of Indiana\u2019s largest total solar eclipse watch events, with thousands from across the world expected to experience the April 8&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.indianapolismotorspeedway.com\/events\/eclipse\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Total Solar Eclipse Event at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway presented by Purdue University<\/a>.
