Following the success of FDC solutions in front-end wafer processing, several semiconductor manufacturers have chosen to implement FDC in their back-end wafer assembly processes.
A well-configured FDC system requires intimate knowledge of processes, equipment, and failure modes as well as a concerted effort to setup and maintain the system. Even when it is fully set up, it is only as good as the fault conditions that have already been conceived.
Captures the portion of utilization that drives cycle time at the tool level by distinguishing between standby time with WIP waiting and standby time when no WIP is waiting.
Accurate, Effective Scheduling, and Decision Visibility
FabTime® provides a standardized system for factory personnel across diverse teams to efficiently monitor KPIs, identify opportunities for improvement, and quickly answer questions about factory operations.
Visualize, Monitor, and Control the Subfab
Well-chosen equipment reliability metrics can help communication between fabs and equipment suppliers and drive cycle time improvement
Why fabs should provide training for people who work in manufacturing on the fundamental drivers of cycle time
