Cleanroom Technology

Semiconductor and integrated circuit developments continue to proceed at an incredible pace. The industry as a whole has gotten to this point of incredible complexity through the process of countless breakthroughs and developments in wafer fab processing. Today’s wafer fabs are some of the most complex buildings in existence worldwide. Cleanroom Technology is an 8-hour online course that offers an overview look into the design, building, and implementation of a modern semiconductor manufacturing fabrication facility, including the fundamental piece of the fabrication facility, known as a cleanroom. We place special emphasis on the important items associated with a cleanroom, and we summarize the current issues related to cleanroom technology. This course is a must for every manager, engineer and technician working in the semiconductor industry, building semiconductor facilities, also known as fabs, or supplying tools to the industry.

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