    How silicon chips work

    1. The arithmetic is done by binary logic. That is, add, subtract, multiply and divide into logical operations. For example, 01+01=10 so XOR 1 of the individual bits to 0. XOR is a logical operation. It can be put together in a simple circuit.

    2. It is called an intrinsic semiconductor. If in the pure silicon (germanium), such as trace amounts of pentavalent phosphorus, antimony, arsenic and other elements on the formation of N-type semiconductors, the same if in the pure silicon (germanium), such as trace amounts of trivalent boron, aluminium, indium, and other elements on the formation of P-type semiconductors.

    3, monocrystalline silicon: molten monolithic silicon in the solidification of silicon atoms to diamond lattice arranged into many nuclei, if these nuclei into the crystal surface orientation of the same grain, then these grains are parallel to the combination of crystalline monocrystalline silicon.

    4, germanium) in the participation, such as trace amounts of trivalent boron, aluminium, indium, and other elements of the formation of a P-type semiconductor. N-type semiconductors and P-type semiconductors together is a diode. The same can be made into a triode. Field effect tube. Other semiconductor electronic components. Specific principles, please refer to the University of basic analogue electronics book.

    5, the chip's raw material wafers, wafers are composed of silicon, is refined with quartz sand, wafers are purified silicon (9999%). Then, some of the pure silicon is made into silicon crystal rods, become due to the semiconductor manufacturing integrated circuits materials. Slicing them up are wafers that are especially needed for chip manufacturing.

    6, the working principle of the chip is based on photolithography and microelectronics technology, made of semiconductor materials such as masks and photolithography and optical controller (MOS) structure on the integration of many transistors. When a certain amount of current or voltage is applied externally, the chip can achieve different functions, such as computing, storage and communication.

    2. The main manufacture of digital signal processing chips, which typically require 1,500 processing steps from start to finish.

    3. Silicon ingots are built and shaped into a perfect cylinder, which will next be cut into sheets called wafers. The wafers are then actually used in the manufacture of CPUs.

    Chip production process and principles

    1, the chip production process and the principle of the following: chip production process Simply put, it is a layer of gold deposited on a piece of glass, and then the gold part of this layer of heating and melting and pouring to the bottom of the substrate. And then an etching in this place, that is, in this gold surface carved out of an integrated circuit.

    2, chip manufacturing process mainly includes wafer preparation, lithography, etching, ion implantation, thin film deposition, chemical and mechanical polishing, metallisation, testing and packaging steps. These steps are interrelated and work together to ensure the high quality and performance of the chip. Details Wafer Preparation: A wafer is the foundation of chip manufacturing; it is a round piece of silicon.

    3, the chip production process generally have the preparation of semiconductor materials, wafer preparation, photolithography, etching technology, cleaning and testing; the principle is based on the semiconductor characteristics of the Harvest Electronics theory. Production process: the preparation of semiconductor materials chip manufacturing materials are semiconductor materials, such as silicon, germanium and so on.

    4, the same chip core can have different forms of packaging, the reason is that the wafer is fixed, pin bundling, according to the need to make different forms of packaging. For example: DIP, QFP, PLCC, QFN, etc., which mainly depends on the user's application habits, application environment, market form and other peripheral factors.

    How are chips made?

    1, chip design.

    1. Chip design. Chip is a small but highly precise product, the first step in making a chip is to design it. The design process requires the use of EDA tools and a number of IP cores, and ultimately the formation of the chip design blueprints required for processing. Silicon Sand Separation. All semiconductor processes start with silicon sand.

    2, the same chip core can have different package forms, the reason is that the wafer is fixed, pin bundling, according to the need to make different package forms. For example: DIP, QFP, PLCC, QFN, etc., which mainly depends on the user's application habits, the application environment, market patterns and other peripheral factors.

    3. Simply put, a layer of gold is deposited on a piece of glass, and then the part of this layer of gold is heated and melted and poured to the bottom of the substrate. Then an etching is done in this place, which is to carve out an integrated circuit on this gold surface. Once this step of production is complete, the chip needs to be polished.

    4, the raw material for single crystal chip: the raw material for chip making is mainly silicon wafer (Silicon Wafer), which is a rounded sheet of high-purity silicon.

    5, how the chip is made as follows: chip design. Chips are small in size, but extremely high precision products. Want to make chips, design is the first link. Design requires the use of EDA tools and some IP cores, and ultimately made of chip design blueprints needed for processing. Sand-silicon separation.

    6, production process: the preparation of semiconductor materials chip manufacturing materials are semiconductor materials, such as silicon, germanium and so on. These materials need to be processed and handled in multiple steps to become suitable for chip manufacturing. Preparation of wafers Wafers are the basis of chip manufacturing, which is a circular sheet made of semiconductor materials.

    Chip manufacturing process illustration

    The process of manufacturing a chip is essentially the process of realising a single transistor on silicon material.

    Chip manufacturing process: photolithography, etching, thin film (chemical vapour deposition or physical vapour deposition), doping (thermal diffusion or ion implantation), chemical-mechanical planarisation CMP.

    The main manufacturing of digital signal processing chips generally requires 1500 processing steps from start to finish.

    So, theoretically, a single 7nm lithography machine at ASML could process 180,000 12-inch wafers per month, making about 50 million usable die. but given that customers are unlikely to order that much at once, and given the need for shutdowns to check on the manufacturing process, the actual output would be less than 50 million.

    The eighth step is to test the chip after flow, if the chip functions normally and meets the design requirements, OK, let the chip factory mass production.

    What is the LED chip manufacturing process?

    And the chip refers to the epitaxial to be processed, and its main purpose is to add electrodes to the epitaxial, in order to with the packaging and application. The main material of the chip is monocrystalline silicon is not correct, still GaN material.

    On the bracket - dot bottom glue - put the chip - bake solid crystal - gold wire bonding - dot fluorescent glue - shell potting - test -Light colour sorting -Packaging (high power LED).

    In general, the LED production process is divided into two major parts: first, the production of gallium nitride (GaN) based epitaxial wafer on the substrate, the process is mainly in the metal organic chemical vapour deposition epitaxial wafer furnaces (MOCVD) completed.

    Process: LED chip inspection Mirror inspection: whether the material surface mechanical damage and pitting (lockhill chip size and electrode size is in line with the process requirements of the electrode pattern is intact LED expansion Due to the LED chip in the scribe is still closely arranged after the pitch is very small (about 0.1mm), is not conducive to the operation of the post-process.
