This course is designed for sales and marketing professionals, as well as new employees, students, and anyone interested in gaining a knowledge about semiconductor manufacturing.   

Learning Objectives

Upon completion of the course, participants should be able to:

  • Explain fundamental semiconductor concepts, including silicon materials, doping, PN junctions, and basic device behavior. 
  • Identify and correctly use common semiconductor manufacturing terminology.
  • Outline the key steps involved in front-end wafer fabrication, from bare silicon to patterned wafers.
  • Summarize back-end manufacturing processes, including assembly, packaging, and testing.

Topics Included

  • Module 1: Semiconductor Fundamentals

    Introduces semiconductor basics, silicon materials, doping PN junctions, and core device concepts, building a foundation for understanding how electronic devices function.

  • Module 2: Semiconductor Terminologies and Manufacturing Context

    Covers essential semiconductor terminology, cleanroom concepts, supply chain players, process nodes, and packaging to help learners navigate manufacturing discussions with confidence.

  • Module 3: Front-end and Back-end Semiconductor Manufacturing

    Provides an overview of the key steps involved in front-end wafer fabrication and back-end assembly, packaging, and testing processes.

  • Module 4: Transistors and Their Operation

    Explains different types of transistors and their working principles, showing how transistors function as switches and amplifiers inside integrated circuits.
