With these new capabilities, Inotera Memories can maximize yield on its advanced memory devices to reduce manufacturing costs.
Uwe Lange, program manager of Inotera, said: Through successful execution of productivity improvement programs, Inotera Memories has built a reputation for providing highly cost-efficient mass production in the dynamic random access memory industry. We’ve been using YieldManager for several years and it has proven to increase engineering productivity by expediting root-cause analysis for yield problems. In light of this success and the dedicated support we’ve received, we are deploying YieldManager’s enhanced Bitmapping Analysis module in our fabs.
Ankush Oberai, vice president of fab analysis business unit at Magma, said: As a high-volume manufacturer, Inotera Memories has challenging requirements. Our close collaboration with Inotera Memories has been mutually beneficial, enabling us to continually improve YieldManager and enabling them to improve productivity and yield. Inotera Memories’ decision to expand the use of Magma’s YieldManager software and to adopt the Bitmapping Analysis module further strengthens the relationship between the two companies.
