 A leading Japanese memory manufacturer has placed follow-on orders for Mattson Technologies’ ‘Suprema’ strip and ‘Helios’ RTP systems for volume production of 65nm NAND flash chips in the chipmaker's newest 300mm fab. System shipments have already begun, the company said. The NAND flash maker will also use Suprema for the development of advanced chips through the 32nm node and now has the largest installed base of the Suprema platform amongst Mattson’s customers.
"Our customer has again selected Mattson's Suprema and Helios systems as a result of our tools' high productivity, superior process performance and low cost-of-ownership," said Stephen T. Lanza, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Mattson Technology's Global Business Operations. "This chipmaker currently has the largest installed base of Supremas and chose the system for advanced 45 and 32 nm device development -- including for advanced HDIS applications - demonstrating its confidence in the system's ability to deliver the process extendibility that can help speed time to market for the company's future products. Our Helios RTP system is in high-volume production at this chipmaker's fab after successfully demonstrating productivity benefits over the competition's tool for NAND flash manufacturing.”
