Excelent documentary on how IC are manufactured.
« on: May 24, 2021, 05:01:22 pm »
This one is a little aged, but, they go from how the pure silicon ingot is grown, polished and cleaned all the way through all the multiple photo-lithography steps and how each level / layer are combined together to make a working IC.



(Less interesting at the end is how ICs are mounted on the PCBs, but, this only the last 5% of the docu...)

Enjoy!

It's from 1997. It's part of a series of educational films about chip manufacturing:

Except when it’s not, because American English stays closer to the original French word, which doesn’t have the L.

This example of British arrogance has been discussed to death and then some:horse: :horse: It’s correct, deal with it.
