Title :
Needs fabless yield ramp foundry partnership to be most successful
Author_Institution :

Abstract :
Using all available data to triangulate on problems becomes more complicated in the fabless model due to competitive issues. Further complication is added because more and more fabless companies are starting to have a slightly different prioritization of defect issues then just best impacting overall defect density. Solving these main issues requires strong partnership while respecting the competitive requirements of both the foundry and the fabless company
