FabGuard® Software

Fabwide, Process Specific FabGuard FDC combines on-line Fault Detection and Classification (FDC) capabilities with powerful tools for fab engineers to readily analyze virtually any aspect of process and equipment behavior. No other system provides greater capability to guard against wafer loss, reduce unscheduled tool downtime and improve yield. Regardless of wafer size or product geometry, timely information is key to fab productivity and competitiveness. The increasing pressure to reduce costs makes it critical to maximize fab productivity, reduce the number of scrapped wafers and maximize equipment utilization. FabGuard meets the challenges of today’s semiconductor manufacturing by combining the collective experience of statisticians and engineers tasked with maintaining cutting edge fab productivity. FabGuard FDC is built on the principle that process and equipment knowledge is crucial to smooth fab operations. Redefining FDC - FabGuard Detection and...
