Fundamentals of Microchip Design and Fabrication

To the uninitiated, microchip technology is a bewildering subject filled with confusing jargon, strange equipment and exotic technology. Indeed, microchip manufacturing is so complex that the engineers involved in the field appear to be speaking an incomprehensible dialect of English that is all their own. More...

The 3D Packaging Revolution

The next significant advancement of Moore's Law is being driven by packaging technology and not transistor evolution. Unlike all other forms of advanced packaging that communicate by routing signals off the chip (as if they were mounted on a traditional circuit board), 3D packaging permits multiple chips to be layered one on top of each other, and to communicate with each other using on-chip signaling, as if they were all one unified microchip. more...

Lithography for Nano-Technology CMOS ICS

WE OFFER STATE-OF-THE-ART TECHNICAL TRAINING ON INTEGRATED CIRCUIT AND MICROCHIP MANUFACTURING

Our mission is to provide the highest quality professional development courses available for the semiconductor industry. Our courses offer a unique, highly effective instructional design - we deliver an interactive classroom experience with detailed process flows and real-world SEMS and TEMs of the most advanced Logic and Memory devices in the market.

Our Fundamentals of Microchip Fabrication and Design course demystifies the subject of microchip design and fabrication by presenting a clear and concise overview of the subject in language that can be understood by non-technical personnel. It covers the key semiconductor technologies of ALD, PVD, CVD, RTP, Etch and Ion Implantation. Also presented are the key microchip packaging technologies.

The Advanced CMOS Technology course presents insights into LELE, multi-patterning and a comprehensive assessment of EUV’s status, problems and implementation. This is in addition to detailed step-by-step descriptions of state-of-the-art 14nm, 10nm, 7nm and 5nm Logic fabrication processes (both backend and front-end).

Also covered in technical detail are 3D NAND Flash, DRAM and XPoint memory processing. Our process flows present a detailed description of the unique structural characteristics and processing requirements for each semiconductor fabrication module, as well as their manufacuring challenges.
