INDEX Lithography India Private Limited, formerly known as "Ball Semiconductor India Private Limited", was setup in 2003 as a Software Development Centre for Ball Semiconductor Inc. (HQ: Allen, Texas)
Ball Semiconductor Inc. has been researching and developing spherical semiconductor device technologies, since its founding in 1996. The company found an opportunity to commercialize the Maskless Exposure Technology it had developed as a part of its efforts in the spherical semiconductor development. Since then, the company has continued to expand its Maskless Exposure Technologies and has been promoting it mostly to high-density chip packaging and Flat Panel Display Industries.
Conventional lithography systems use a photo mask to make patterns on a substrate. BALL’s maskless exposure system performs direct writing on the substrate with millions of laser beams by utilizing Digital Micro-mirror Device and semiconductor lasers.
Elimination of the physical photomask saves on cost enormously, improves productivity, and offers unique features. We believe that our technology has the potential to become the future standard of imaging technology. With the elimination of the physical mask, software becomes the key piece in the system. Ball Semiconductor India Private Limited was incorporated in Bangalore, to develop the software that is integral to the Maskless Exposure Technologies.
In July 2006, Ball Semiconductor Inc. and Dai-Nippon Kaken (HQ: Kyoto, Japan) have formed a Corporate Joint Venture for Maskless Exposure Equipment business. The joint venture is named "INDEX Technologies Incorporated", with head quarters in Kyoto, Japan. Ball Semiconductor India Private Limited became a fully-owned subsidiary of INDEX Technologies Inc. and the name is changed to "INDEX Lithography India Private Limited".
