Discover Run-to-Run software is a feature-rich application that enables advanced supervisory process control, surpassing traditional statistical methods. It ensures precise process goals. For example, achieving desired thickness is possible through tailored adjustments of machine parameters like deposition duration or pressure settings. Designed for high-mix production, it allows seamless transfer of control strategies across factories for operational flexibility. Proven globally, it operates thousands of tools across hundreds of processes continuously. With its adaptable, framework-based APC solution, Discover Run-to-Run software enables rapid factory-wide deployment, delivering significant and immediate return on investment while enhancing consistency, productivity and efficiency.

Discover Yield software helps reduce the time it takes to find root causes of yield excursions and enables manufacturers to broaden their analysis scope for better yield management.

The software includes data acquisition and integration, a development environment through workflow and scripting, and specialized analysis algorithms to identify domain-specific issues, such as data mining, spatial anomalies, wafer processing sequence problems, commonality of effects, system and random yield loss, chamber matching, tool events, traceability and more. In addition, Discover Yield software provides distinct tools – principal components and multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) – that allow systematic, simultaneous examination of multiple variables. Discover Yield software’s database architecture for genealogy uniquely supports value chain predictive analytics.

Improving baseline yield with analytics

Discover AI software is a disruptive technology that reshapes the way we approach manufacturing line control and yield analysis. It leverages the latest in machine learning and artificial intelligence to identify actionable improvements and connections in data that a human could not. The software’s optimization engine adds a powerful machine learning analytical method to an already sophisticated toolbox of process improvement applications.

By analyzing any set of conceivable inputs and outputs, Discover AI software identifies relationships and interactions that lead to positive operational changes. Easily understood visuals empower even casual users to understand what is important before making adjustments.

Discover AI software evaluates multiple models and suggests the optimal one for the data. Using machine learning, it examines interactions between in-process inputs and results for any semiconductor product family and recommends changes to in-process targets. Licensed as a service, it enables users to leverage an on-demand infrastructure to apply easily understood workflows for complex analytics without the overhead.
