Modeling, IC Processes and Emerging Microtechnology
This course presents a powerful design tool, overall fabrication process flows and emerging trends in the Micro technology industry. Finite Element Analysis is a computational tool that design teams use to build models and simulate parts or whole systems. FEA has been introduced with the high business impact use cases, and theoretical background. Integrated CPU (computational processor unit) fabrication flow and its evolution over the past decades is covered. Finally, emerging technologies and trends in both compute processor chips and MEMS are presented.
This course is part of the Semiconductor and MEMS Fabrication Specialization. It is recommended that learners take the previous courses of the Specialization prior to this course.
Please disregard module numbers because the content has been reorganized to improve comprehension and flow of the specialization.
