Chair, SEMI Smart Manufacturing Global Executive Committee
This year’s theme for the International Trade Partners Conference—ITPC—will guide an exploration of geopolitics, contentious trade and national security concerns, and our deep-rooted ambitions to maintain the global footprints we have created. Our manufacturing infrastructures, trade connections, and supply chains are now part of the geopolitical state – something few could have anticipated. We are finally witnessing governments, the media, and the general public taking notice of semiconductors and their critical importance.
Determining the Detection Limit - SEMI C10
Registration Details
Registration is Required. There are no fees.
If you are registering to attend the Workshop Virtually, please follow the same registration procedure (via the Button Below) and we will email you the Dial-In information a week before the session.
Registration for this Workshop is separate from SEMICON West registration, but necessary to access the workshop room. To waive the SEMICON West Registration fee, use code "STANDARDSGUEST22" when registering on the SEMICON West Registration page.
In this workshop, our journey of navigating the detection limit obstacle course begins with a broad view of the problem focused on developing a conceptual understanding of key detection limit concepts and limitations. Statistics plays a key role in effective detection limit definition; but need to be the last and final piece of solving the detection limit puzzle where they drive the development of an appropriate statistical practice for detection limit standards.
The current version of SEMI C10 - Guide for Determination of Method Detection Limits sets out important and useful guidance for these concepts. Key detection limit concepts, including the problems caused by our natural biases must be explored and understood. Issues in detection limit and rule-set application will be probed since it is at the application level that detection limit standards succeed or fail.
Workshop Agenda
Part 1: Detecting the Detection Limit – Broad View of Detection Limit Standards / Issues
The Swamp: Why so much disagreement?
Basic Detection Limit concepts
Calibration’s under-appreciated role
Detection Limit Quantification Uncertainty
DL Usage Contexts and Reporting Practices
What’s required to build a Detection Limit standard?
Part 2: SEMI C10 – Guide for Determination of Method Detection Limits
How does it work?
What does it assume?
What are its strengths and limitations?
How should Semi C10 derived Detection Limits be applied?
What form could an update to SEMI C10 take and why?
@ SEMICON WEST Moscone Center San Francisco, CA United States
Join this workshop during SEMICON West 2022 to explore SEMI C10 and discuss how its application to your procedures will improve your yields and manufacturing processes. Quality experts, analytical experts, statisticians and those involved with product quality and process metrics should attend.

Introduction to implementing a Test Cell RITdb Client
Registration Details
Members: $113.00
Non-Members: $150.00
Registration includes a copy of the RITdb Standard - SEMI E183
No refunds for cancellations; Substitutions can be made at any time.
Industry 4.0 brings machine to machine IOT, human augmentation, cloud, edge, and AI together to enable a better manufacturing process. Before we can take advantage of the promise we need a efficient means to share the very complex and wide ranging data which is created and used on the test floor. This data comes from many sources, has latency and security issues with constantly changing sources and applications. RITdb solves the sharing issues via extensible machine focused data structures and transport formats which have been validated in an advanced test environment.
This 2 hour workshop is divided into three sections: and introduction to the problems and values, a walk through on how RI and TI implemented the POC in a working production environment and finally a deep technical dive into the implementation effort needed to get started.
Looking to take advantage of Industry 4.0 to bring order to the chaos of your semiconductor test process? Attend this course online and learn how an implementation of the latest SEMI Standard for test floor data and events sharing can improve the productivity of your test operations.
This 2 hour workshop is a follow-on from this July STEP Class.

About the Speaker
Dr. Paul Carey joined SEMI in April 2021 and is responsible for managing the MSIG PNT program, the MSIG webinars, and supporting the Manufacturing, Device and Reliability Workgroups and all MSIG related conferences and events. Before joining SEMI, he worked at X-Ray imaging backplane supplier and FOA member, dpiX, in various positions starting in 2003. He was the process, equipment, and yield manager in their Gen 2.5 Palo Alto glass Fab until 2012 when dpiX moved its production to a new Gen 4.5 Fab in Colorado Springs. He rejoined dpiX in 2014 and worked on the flexible substrate equipment selection team and later became their first business development manager in 2018 when dpiX announced its Foundry Business.
Earlier positions were held at Applied Materials where he helped develop a laser annealing system for semiconductor shallow junctions and silicides, and start-up company FlexICs, where he was a co-founder and VP of Engineering. FlexICs developed low temperature thin film transistor (TFT) fabrication technology relevant to flexible OLED displays now used in cellphones. Prior to founding FlexICs, he worked as a staff scientist and program leader at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory where his group initially developed the low temperature polysilicon-on-plastic TFT technology.
Dr. Carey received a double major BS from UC Berkeley in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) and Materials Science and Engineering (MSE). He received his MS in EECS from UC Berkeley and Ph.D. in MSE from Stanford University.

Current electromechanical design practice is predicated on the exercise of expert-level judgement through an interactive and iterative design and fabrication process that requires skilled humans at every step. This approach doesn't scale because it is labor intensive, and therefore biases robots toward longer-lasting, more general-purpose (and expensive) designs in order to justify the development and fabrication costs. Though appropriate in some cases, not all applications are well-served by this process. Many robot applications might be better-served by rapidly-built special-purpose or single-use machines, but automated design and fabrication tools will be critical to control costs, accelerate development, and be responsive to application needs.
The overall goal is to make electromechanical systems (robots) so easy to design and fabricate that we could enable people who are application experts (but not necessarily robot design or fabrication experts) to rapidly create robots for their specific needs. Although Roboticists claim that robots are for dull, dirty, and dangerous use-cases, the community predominantly uses them for the first case, because robots are currently expensive and slow to build, which makes them precious. If we change this situation by making robots practically disposable/expendable, we could potentially re-imagine many robot use-cases.
With this future in mind, new design tools to convert high-level requirements specified by non-experts into concrete electromechanical design plans, new materials that leverage multi-material additive manufacturing, and new multi-material 3D printing methods to automatically convert these designs into functional robots are being developed. During this course we will describe these various areas of current study as well as possible applications for 3D printed robotics.
