SEMI and Semiconductor Digest today announced finalists for the Best of West award to be presented at SEMICON West 2022, July 12-14 at the Moscone Center in San Francisco. The Best of West Award winner will be announced at SEMICON West 2022 Hybrid on Wednesday, July 13, 2022.
Presented by SEMI Americas and Semiconductor Digest each year, the Best of West award recognizes innovative new products or services that are significantly advancing the electronics manufacturing supply chain or a particular manufacturing capability.
The following Best of West 2022 finalists will showcase their products on the SEMICON West 2022 Hybrid show floor:
Advantest: V93000 EX Test Station
The EX Test Station is a stand-alone test system that is compatible with Advantest V93000 series test systems. It brings the versatility, accuracy, and high-performance capabilities of the V93000 into the lab environment.
ClassOne Technology: Solstice
ClassOne Technology’s Solstice® single-wafer platform delivers advanced electroplating and wafer-surface preparation technologies for compound semiconductors and other critical applications requiring ultimate wafer uniformity and process control in a single flexible, compact system.
Nanotronics: nControl™
nControl™ integrates the AIPC™ software solution with its DLC™edge computing for manufacturing. AIPC™ aggregates real-time manufacturing process data and uses deep learning to build models that provide KPI predictions, anomalous activity alerts and autonomous control, enabling factories to automatically adapt to increase yields and avoid malfunctions.
Onto Innovation: Atlas V
Atlas V, leveraging the latest improvements in source signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), coupled with the Onto Innovation Al-Diffract engine (Machine Learning-guided modeling engine), enables the clean separation of signals related to nanosheets in gate-all-around (GAA) devices. Using individual nanosheet measurements from an inline tool capable of measuring a single location in less than a second, Atlas V enables a process control feedback loop that is critical for ramping yield to HVM levels.
UCT: IoT Manifold
The IoT Manifold is an innovative concept that combines high-quality ultra-clean valves, remote control capabilities, sensing features and wireless connectivity systems.
The IoT Manifold is designed to maximize control over various systems and prevent human error, breakdowns, and unnecessary expenditures while enabling a safer working environment.
