Joe <edited> the argument started when I calculated the total number of good chips per wafer as a rough indication of cost effectiveness of the process (assuming that good portion of the cost is fixed). The analyst clearly stated that his numbers are yield rates rather than yields because he used "%" (same as your definition). I used it in the same way. I am sure that fingolfen was not serious. Regards -Albert ps I am not stating that analysts was correct in his assumptions pss Elmer at one point theorized the normal distribution of flaws. Assuming that assumption it is fairly easy to calculate the effect of the larger die. But I am not sure how normal is Elmer's normal :-))
