Multiple Revolution+ automatic wet benches will expand Vishay's power-device production in Newport, South Wales.
Vishay Intertechnology has chosen RENA Technologies wet processing for GaN and SiC-processing. The semiconductor manufacturer purchased multiple Revolution+ automatic wet benches to expand their power-device production in Newport, South Wales.
The Revolution+ is a small footprint system that enables up to three batch chemical processes on full lots of 150 mm and 200 mm wafers.
"We are thrilled to partner with Vishay to enhance their semiconductor manufacturing capabilities in Europe," stated Peter Schneidewind, CEO of RENA Technologies. "SiC cleaning is one of our core competencies and the Revolution+ machines are tailored to meet those specific requirements."
Serge Jaunay, SVP and MOSFETs division head from Vishay, said. "RENA has been instrumental in helping us address our manufacturing challenges. Their expertise in wet processing technology and commitment to customer satisfaction have been evident throughout the project. We are confident that this investment will significantly contribute to our production process."
The batch wet processing machines will be delivered in January 2025 to start production in the new fab.
Secure Your Hydrogen Supply
A study supply of high-purity hydrogen is critical to semiconductor fabrication. Supply chain interruptions are challenging manufacturers, leading to production slowdowns and stoppages. On-site hydrogen generation offers a scalable alternative for new and existing fabs, freeing the operator from dependence on delivered gas.Plant managers understand the critical role that hydrogen plays in semiconductor fabrication. That important job includes crystal growth, carrier gas, wafer annealing, and in the emerging Extreme UV Lithography (EUV) that will enable new generations of devices. As the vast need for semiconductors grows across all sectors of world economies, so does the need for high-purity hydrogen.
