ptanner,

Re: "So, the minimum Dresden implanters required would be
5000 WPW / (7 * 24 / 1.2) = 35 for IBM's old process ..."

Do you realize how much space 35 implanters would take up ??
And this is just to make the starting wafers ... I also wonder how
well controlled this process is. If there are defects generated during
this starting material process ... then ... you don't find out for a couple
months, you're "toast". It could be back to the "good old days"
at AMD ... A yield crash every few months. <ggg>

Make It So,
Yousef

ptanner,

Re: "Hm. I think this counts as all my learning for the day (goal is only at least one new thing)."

Looks like you have already "over-taxed" yourself. <ggg>

Make It So,
