Responsibilities
- Perform detail data analysis using various statistical/analytics tools to identify process root cause and fail mechanism of yield issues
- Work closely with Process Integration and Process & Equipment engineer to provide timely yield feedback to enable fast yield ramp to mature.
- Use knowledge of semiconductor device physics, electronics and semiconductor manufacturing process to explain and resolve yield issues
- Participate in multi-area problem solving focus team to provide yield and failure analysis expertise to solve sophisticated yield problems
- Prepare detail and clear yield indices and reports/Pareto of yield deviation to the Fab team to provide the direction of process improvements
- Serve as a key role in identifying and implementing new methods for yield analysis, and working with Yield Enhancement team to continuous improve YE process efficiencies
- Engage other sister Fabs to shares Best Known Methods (BKM) and yield learning
- Coordinate in all Failure Analysis activities and characterization to narrow down process root cause of yield deviation and limiters
- Support transfer of next generation technology from R&D to production Fab as and when vital
- Work closely with RDA to identify and minimize inline defect gaps to end-of-line fails, and support them to provide inline die-loss for all defect related yield limiters
- Mentor YE technician on daily yield analysis operation.
