2010 ISMI Installed-base Equipment Series

This series of workshops will bring together integrated circuit (IC) manufacturers with original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to discuss key productivity and cost issues associated with specific wafer fabrication equipment types. In addition, selected experts will be invited to present their unique perspectives on topics related to the various tool types.

IC manufacturers are invited to participate in these workshops to learn about solutions through the sharing of real fab experiences, including best-known-methods which can provide immediate valuable impact on their fabs.

Participants will be able to present and receive feedback on top equipment issues and benchmark equipment performance metrics, and will be able to discuss 'real life' maintenance, equipment engineering and parts challenges.

Attendance for these workshops is restricted to IC manufacturers and invited OEMs. Export restrictions and confidentiality requirements may apply.
