3-D Cost Model
-- Semiconductor International, 6/1/2008
The Cost Analysis Tool dedicated to 3-D IC manufacturing allows users to tune fab parameters, including the number of wafers processed per year, global process yield, operator cost per year, etc. It also provides precise descriptions on cleanroom class, maintenance cost, as well as many other options. Users will also be able to consider the level of automation of the fab and its geographical location. Yole Développement, Lyon, France, www.yole.fr
