Are you still relying on outdated, reactive maintenance methods for your semiconductor plant that lead to costly unplanned downtimes and inefficiencies? It's time to challenge the status quo.  

Join our webinar to discover how Predictive Maintenance (PdM) powered by AI can revolutionize your maintenance strategy by predicting equipment failures before they occur. This approach reduces unplanned downtimes, saves costs, enhances safety, and drives sustainability. We will expose the hidden costs of traditional maintenance and demonstrate why PdM is a more obvious choice.

Key takeaways:

  • Challenges: Uncover the inefficiencies of reactive maintenance  
  • Benefits: Explore PdM’s cost-saving and operational advantages
  • Strategies: Learn how to transition to PdM effectively

Don't settle for outdated maintenance methods. Register for this webinar now to unlock the full potential of PdM and transform your semiconductor operations for greater efficiency and cost savings.

Hardware is at the heart of computing systems. However, recent years have seen increased attacks exploiting hardware vulnerabilities and exploits, which even traditional software-based protections cannot prevent. Hardware fuzzing has shown promise in detecting vulnerabilities in large-scale designs like modern processors. In this talk, we will describe the hardware vulnerabilities in hardware description languages, such as Verilog and VHDL. Then, we will explain a new and radical approach called hardware fuzzing to find these vulnerabilities and detail how fuzzing techniques can be combined with existing formal verification techniques to detect vulnerabilities efficiently. Finally, we will discuss a strategy for pinpointing vulnerabilities to accelerate the mitigation process and briefly talk about improving the efficiency of hardware fuzzing using ML/AI techniques, such as multi-armed bandit (MAB) and large language models (LLM).

Abstract

Science Foundry innovates on the traditional MEMS foundry business in three key ways: robust Multi-Project Wafer (MPW) offerings, a custom Manufacturing Execution System (MES), and a modular approach to our manufacturing capabilities. Some of our MPW offerings have been around for decades, while others were designed to serve the rapidly growing brain-computer interface industry, but all of our offerings provide production quality manufacturing at a fraction of the cost of custom wafer runs. We designed our MES for flexibility, enabling a level of efficiency beyond traditional wafer fabrication facilities and empowering us to engage with customers earlier in their development. Ultimately, this unlocks bandwidth from our technical staff to focus on creative problem solving and faster iteration cycles. We are expanding into a new facility with a modular upgrading plan that will add new process capabilities and strategically scale for the right partners. Our adaptability is our greatest strength, not only meeting our customers' needs but proactively anticipating the needs of nascent and burgeoning industries.

NOTE: This webinar has been indefinitely postponed. 

The FDA’s Center for Devices and Radiological Health (CDRH) launched the voluntary Total Product Life Cycle (TPLC) Advisory Program (TAP) Pilot to help spur more rapid development of high-quality, safe, effective, and innovative medical devices that are critical to public health. TAP’s primary goal is to expedite patient access to innovative medical devices by providing early, frequent, and strategic communications with the FDA and by facilitating engagement with other key parties for developers of devices of public health importance. To achieve this goal, a dedicated cadre of FDA TAP Advisors proactively provide solutions-focused engagement that is tailored to each TAP Innovator’s needs in advancing devices to market and patient access. In this seminar, FDA TAP Advisors will discuss this pilot program and provide participants input on when in their regulatory journey TAP may be an option for them.

Course Description

By focusing on the basics of each processing step and the issues surrounding them, participants will learn why certain techniques are preferred over others. Our instructors work hard to explain how semiconductor processing works without delving heavily into the complex physics and mathematical expressions that normally accompany this discipline.

Participants learn basic but powerful aspects about the semiconductor industry. This skill-building series is divided into three segments:

1. Basic Processing Steps. Each processing step addresses a specific need in IC creation. Participants learn the fundamentals of each processing step and why they are used in the industry today.

2. The Evolution of Each Processing Step. It is important to understand how wafer fab processing came to the point where it is today. Participants learn how each technique has evolved for use in previous and current generation ICs.

3. Current Issues in Wafer Fab Processing. Participants learn how many processing steps are increasingly constrained by physics and materials science. They also learn about the impact of using new materials in the fabrication process and how those materials may create problems for the manufacturers in the future.

Learning Objectives

  • Review of the semiconductor industry and its technical issues.
  • Understand the basic concepts behind the fundamental wafer fab processing steps.
  • Identify the key issues related to each of the processing techniques and their impact on the continued scaling of the semiconductor industry.
  • Identify the basic features and principles associated with each major processing step. These include processes like chemical vapor deposition, ion implantation, lithography, and etching.
  • Understand how processing, reliability, power consumption and device performance are interrelated.
  • Make decisions about how to construct and evaluate processing steps for CMOS, BiCMOS, and bipolar technologies.

Who Should Attend

This course is a must for every manager, engineer and technician working in the semiconductor industry, using semiconductor components or supplying tools to the industry.

Abstract

Companies across the semiconductor value chain must respond to a dynamic horizon as the ISSB Standards are adopted by securities regulators, standard-setters and stock exchanges around the world. At the same time, investors are asking companies to voluntarily transition from the TCFD recommendations to the ISSB Standards to meet their information needs.

To clarify what the ISSB Standards mean for the semiconductor value chain, SEMI is pleased to collaborate with the IFRS Foundation, which is the organizational seat of the ISSB. Our webinar, ISSB Standards Adoption and Reporting for the Semiconductor Value Chain, outlines the stakes for companies, demonstrates the business value of the Standards (IFRS S1 and IFRS S2), answers audience questions, and provides a venue for information exchange. There will be a deep dive into implications for climate reporting under IFRS S2 after a high-level look at the background and workplan of the ISSB.

Our distinguished speakers from IFRS Foundation are Neil Stewart, Director of Corporate Outreach, and Jing Zhang, Head of Climate Research.

This event is part of the SEMI webinar series, “Global State of Play: Sustainability Regulations, Reporting, & Incentives.” This series offers semiconductor industry professionals the chance to interact with top-tier experts on the most pressing challenges in compliance, disclosure, and strategy for sustainable business.

Sustainability

Worldwide, companies in the semiconductor value chain are undergoing paradigm shifts in how they report sustainability-related risks and opportunities to stakeholders in government and capital markets.

Semiconductor manufacturing and design firms, together with their business partners, face heightened pressure to report on their performance related to climate transition, human capital management, supply chain management, and a host of other environmental, social, and governance issues.

On one hand, companies face a patchwork of reporting rules conditioned on where they do business. On the other hand,  a global baseline of sustainability-related disclosures ushered in by the IFRS Foundation’s International Sustainability Standards Board (ISSB) is gathering momentum.
