TAIPEI, Feb 13 (Reuters) - ASE Technology Holding

Co. ( ASX ), the world's largest chip packaging and testing

provider, said on Thursday it expects its revenue from

leading-edge advanced packaging and testing to more than double

to $1.6 billion this year, as global demand for AI chips surges.

ASE CFO Joseph Tung said on an earnings call that 2024

revenue from this segment was $600 million, up from $250 million

in 2023.

Of the projected billion-dollar increase in revenue in 2025,

Tung said 75% will come from leading edge packaging and 25% from

advanced testing.

ASE's subsidiary, Siliconware Precision Industries, has been

a key supplier to Nvidia ( NVDA ) for the past 27 years.
