PURPOSE : To train Fab personnel in Advanced Fab Technology, to gain mastery in Chip manufacturing in yield, output, new technology qualification and cost. Fabs alsorecieve recommendations that are actionable for immediate improvement. First, we must understand why and how things work.

Knowing something is not causing a problem is as important as knowing what is causing the problem. We are so busy managing that we do not have time for fundamental decisions. There is no reward in preventing crisis. This training program is just to do that, prevent problems that lead to financial losses for the Waferfab.

SCHEDULE : Every Friday at 8 am US Eastern Time / 7:30 pm Indian Standard Time

# of Courses : 17, 1 to 4 hours each, depending on session.

TARGET : Management, Engineering in Integration, Process, Product, Equipment and Yield

TRAINERS : Masters in their field from > 100 + years and > 28 fabs experience in technology development and transfer, fab startup, rapid qualification, yield and production ramp.

UPON COMPLETION FAB SHOULD BE ABLE TO: Correctly apply a unique and proven methodology, that addresses all root causes of yield losses. The methodology is based on science and engineering.
