Why it matters
Lingsen Precision sits in OSAT — Outsourced semiconductor assembly and test (OSAT) companies package finished dies into the chips and modules that go into end products. As advanced packaging — chiplets, CoWoS, HBM stacking, and fan-out technologies — moves from niche to mainstream, OSATs have become strategic partners rather than commodity handlers. ASE Technology (which includes SPIL) is the world's largest OSAT; Amkor is a major player in advanced packaging in the Americas and Korea. TSMC and Samsung also offer advanced packaging in-house, competing directly with OSATs at the leading edge. 22 companies in the wafergraph dataset sit in OSAT.
