In the semiconductor supply chain, wafer fabs are referred to as the “Mount Everest of manufacturing.” The reason is simple: not only is there a vast number of processes, but the sequence, time requirements, and equipment dependencies for each process are also extremely strict. More challenging is that wafer production is not a “one-time linear … Read more
Some transistors exceed 50 billion in size, which are 10,000 times smaller than a human hair. They are made on the floors of massive ultra-clean factories, which can be seven stories high and as long as four football fields. Chips are the lifeblood of the modern economy in many ways. They power computers, smartphones, cars, … Read more
