Norhayati Soin 05 KEEE 4426 WEEK 12/1 3/13/2005 KEEE 4426 WEEK 12 CMOS FABRICATION PROCESS
2
Norhayati Soin 05 KEEE 4426 WEEK 12/1 3/13/2005 Fabrication Technology(1) nMOS Fabrication CMOS Fabrication –p-well process –n-well process –twin-tub process

Norhayati Soin 05 KEEE 4426 WEEK 12/1 3/13/2005 Fabrication Technology(2) All the devices on the wafer are made at the same time After the circuitry has been placed on the chip –the chip is overglassed (with a passivation layer) to protect it –only those areas which connect to the outside world will be left uncovered (the pads) The wafer finally passes to a test station –test probes send test signal patterns to the chip and monitor the output of the chip The yield of a process is the percentage of die which pass this testing The wafer is then scribed and separated up into the individual chips. These are then packaged

Norhayati Soin 05 KEEE 4426 WEEK 12/1 3/13/2005 Fabrication Technology(4) Photolithography process
6
Norhayati Soin 05 KEEE 4426 WEEK 12/1 3/13/2005 Fabrication Technology(5) Resists negative: areas to be preserved are hardened after exposure to light positive: areas to be preserved are not exposed to light Exposure UV light used to sensitize the resist using a mask. Develop Resist areas that are exposed (positive) or not exposed (negative) are removed with an acid and water wash. resist protected area resist exposed area
