San Francisco, California -- July 13-15, 2010 Explore Your INFINITE POSSIBILITIES at SEMICON West 2010 SEMICON West is the flagship annual event for the global microelectronics industry—and much more. No other event generates more industry buzz or features as comprehensive a collection of technologies across the microelectronics and photovoltaic industry supply chains than SEMICON West. Simply put, SEMICON West is the can't miss destination of the year. Don't miss your chance to engage the global microelectronics and photovoltaics industries and expand your opportunities in infinite ways. SEMICON West is the world's premier destination for solutions to today's and tomorrow's microelectronics design and manufacturing challenges. Exhibits and technical sessions at SEMICON West 2009 will focus on the key trends and technologies driving the future of microelectronics, photovoltaics, MEMS, and new and emerging technology markets. More, More, Moore: Advances in Semiconductor Manufacturing Moving beyond 32nm and 22nm designs, materials and equipment challenges will open doors to new opportunities and pave the way for continued advances in productivity and device performance. SEMICON West will showcase the technologies that promise to push Moore's Law to its limits and beyond. Moving Beyond Moore: Challenges for Microelectronics Manufacturing Beyond 2010 Device scaling is not the only driver moving advances in materials and manufacturing technology. Extending the life of older technologies and fabs, the timing of 450mm, and new opportunities beyond semiconductors (including MEMS, solid state lighting, and flexible electronics) are coming to the fore as critical areas for exploration. The new Extreme Electronics zone—a show-within-the-show on the SEMICON West show floor—will showcase companies and technologies focused on emerging markets and technologies and open a window to the new and growing opportunities beyond semiconductors. The Package is the Product: New Paradigms for Packaging and Test As the mobile electronics revolution continues to drive greater device complexity, the need to work in multiple dimensions and across multiple disciplines is increasing. While device scaling gets most of the attention, advances in packaging and test are poised to enable exponential gains in productivity and performance. Closing the Gaps: Integration Across the Supply Chain With increased device complexity come challenges that can only be addressed through closer collaboration across the supply chain. From design-for-manufacturing to new concepts of co-design. SEMICON West will cover the topics and provide the platform to connect device designers and design software experts with manufacturing, packaging, and test technology companies. Solar's Bright Future: New Opportunities in Photovoltaics Solar energy is ready for prime time. The growing application of semiconductor manufacturing expertise and technologies promises to accelerate the performance, growth, and adoption of photovoltaic (PV) technology in infinite ways. SEMICON West, along with Intersolar North America, will shine a solar-powered spotlight on the latest technologies and trends in PV manufacturing. |
