How Does Fab Make (Loss) Money• Cost:
– Wafer (8”): ~$150/wafer*
– Processing: ~$1200 ($2/wafer/step, 600 steps)– Packing: ~$5/chip
• Sale:– ~200 chips/wafer– ~$50/chip (low-end microprocessor in 2000)
*Cost of wafer, chips per wafer, and price of chip varies, numbers here are choosing randomly based on general information.

How Does a Fab Make (Loss) Money• 100% yield: 150+1200+1000 = $2350/wafer• 50% yield: 150+1200+500 = $1850/wafer• 0% yield: 150+1200 = $1350/wafer
• 100% yield: 200×50 = $10,000/wafer• 50% yield: 100×50 = $5,000/wafer• 0% yield: 0×50 = $0.00/wafer
• 100% yield: 10000 − 2350 = $7650/wafer• 50% yield : 5000 − 1850 = $3150/wafer• 0% yield : 0 − 1350 = − $1350/wafer

Question
• If yield for every process step is 99%, what is the overall processing yield after 600 process steps?

Hong Xiao, Ph. D. www2.austin.cc.tx.us/HongXiao/Book.htm

Answer
• It equals to 99% times 99% 600 times
• 0.99600 = 0.0024 = 0.24%
• Almost no yield

Throughput
• Number of wafers able to process– Fab: wafers/month (typically 10,000)– Tool: wafers/hour (typically 60)
• At high yield, high throughput brought

Clean Room
• Artificial environment with low particle counts
• Started in medical application for post-surgery infection prevention
• Particles kills yield
• IC fabrication must in a clean room

Clean Room
• First used for surgery room to avoid bacteria contamination
• Adopted in semiconductor industry in 1950• Smaller device needs higher grade clean room• Less particle, more expensive to build

Clean Room Class
• Class 10 is defined as less than 10 particles with diameter larger than 0.5 μm per cubic foot.
• Class 1 is defined as less than 1 such particles per cubic foot.
• 0.18 mm device require higher than Class 1 grade clean room.
