Matthew Purdy, Advanced Micro Devices, Austin, TX, USA

ABSTRACT

The economics of bringing a new, 300mm semiconductor factory online are enormous, with capital costs in the billions of dollars. Such large initial capital outlays in the highly competitive semiconductor industry require a rapid return on investment. Such a return can only be done by operating factories at high levels of efficiency and predictability.
