John,

Re: "Each circuit layer contains P-doped Silicon, N-doped Silicon, Aluminum, not sure what the dielectric is ... I believe one of the five layers is basically just "wiring", i.e., aluminum only."

Very impressive John ... maybe with your expertise, AMD will call on you
to help fix their yield problem !!??

Make It So,

Petz,

Your explanation of a 5 layer chip is very impressive indeed.

"Each circuit layer contains P-doped Silicon, N-doped Silicon, Aluminum...I believe one of the five layers is basically just "wiring", i.e., aluminum only."

You can go back to sleep now. Maybe you will get it right in your dreams.

John.

Hint: 1 layer of silicon and 5 layers of metal.
