PRC Vision: Second Law of Electronics by System-On-Package (SOP)
Unlike Moore 's Law, the first law of electronics, which integrates at IC level, PRC's vision of SOP, System-On-Package (or module) is the Second Law of Electronics for System Integration. SOP is a highly miniaturized system technology combining computing, communication, consumer, and bio-electronic functions in a single package or module. It accomplishes this miniaturization by package integration of system-level components at microscale in the short term and nanoscale in the long term.

Applications of SOP: Digital convergence, consumer electronics, 3G and beyond communications, health care, safety, and security.
Research Areas of SOP: Mixed signal design, test, materials, processes, assembly, thermal and reliability.
Education in SOP: Undergraduate and graduate courses, curricula, textbooks, research and degrees at BS, MS and Ph.D. levels.
Industry Collaborations in SOP: More than 70 companies collaborate from US, Europe, Japan, Korea, India and Singapore.
Infrastructure in SOP: $50 M state-of-the-art facilities in design, fabrication, assembly, test and reliability.
Faculty and Students: 20 faculty and more than 100 graduates and undergraduate students from ECE, MSE, ME and ChE.
