In order to increase semiconductor yield and production capacity, Samsung is developing a "smart sensor system"

  • 26-December-2023

Samsung Electronics is developing a "smart sensor system" to regulate and oversee semiconductor processes, according to ETNews. Productivity gains and an increase in semiconductor yield are anticipated from this system. Real-time monitoring and analysis of the production process is the aim of the smart sensor system. It has the ability to identify potential problems and offer fixes to raise output and yield. Samsung intends to progressively broaden the scope of smart sensor development and applications.

Regarding wafer processing waste generation, financial and environmental sustainability, time to market, and costs, semiconductor yield is thought to be the most crucial factor. Complex semiconductor manufacturing processes are the main cause of yield issues; a single wafer must pass strict quality control measures and take three to six months to be ready for shipping.

In the semiconductor production process, precisely controlling plasma uniformity and density is one of the most important ways to increase semiconductor yield. Wafer plasma uniformity and precise etching measurement and management are accomplished by means of the "intelligent sensor system." The yield and production capacity of semiconductors are anticipated to increase with this process. Tens of millions of won are spent on foreign manufacturers, primarily in the United States, for the majority of Samsung's current wafer smart sensors. Samsung has been forced to reduce its reliance on foreign sensors and turn to in-house research due to the recent surge in demand for increased production.

Samsung Electronics is developing incredibly tiny smart sensors. This implies that their impact on the current equipment space will be negligible. This implies that better space utilization can be achieved while increasing production capacity.

END VERSE

A noteworthy innovation that will increase semiconductor yield and production capacity is Samsung's smart sensor system. In real time, the system will track and evaluate the production process. Additionally, it will identify any potential problems and offer fixes to raise output and yield. Manufacturing advances are made possible by Samsung's state-of-the-art semiconductor manufacturing facilities. In addition, the business is streamlining its operations to provide more scalable, high-performance solutions.
