Abstract :
At Infineon Technologies APC fault detection is now implemented in many process areas in its high volume fabs. With the APC Software "APC-Trend" process engineers and maintenance can detect and classify anomalies in machine and process parameters and supervise them on the basis of an automated alarming system. An overview of the current usage of APC FDC at Infineon is given.
