This growth is viewed posi tively in the light of the recent Covid pandemic and ongoing supply chain disruptions. Since disruptions (all kinds) in the semiconductor supply cha in are not going away\, the semiconductor companies must ensure that their entire supply chain (SC) "eco system” is complete\, efficient and resil ient. Many SC experts use a pyramid to highlight the critical segments of the chip manufacturing fabrication process. Through the use of a SC pyrami d\, process experts highlight the essential needs and requirements\, begin ning to end\, of the chip fabrication process eco system.\nThe resulting p yramid notes the intersection of the many entities involved\, upstream and downstream suppliers\, associated manufacturing equipment companies\, and all vendors and distributors for each segment. The eco system includes ch ip design\, chip design verification\, wafer manufacturing\, key essential raw materials\, packaging\, and assembly and test regardless of the entit y type (foundry\, OSAT facility\, or IDM). The final chip is then designed into a sub-assembly\, device\, or a system that can be sold to consumers and government agencies. A discussion of the equipment tools key to the ch ip fabrication process will also be presented. This will include design ve rification and test tools\, deposition equipment\, and lithography equipme nt.\nSummary: The semiconductor supply chain ecosystem\; Pyramid illustrat ion of 6 segments describing the chip fabrication process\; Associated mai n player companies for each of the segments\; Semiconductor fabrication eq uipment suppliers and their market share.\n\nSpeaker(s): Kitty Pearsall\, \n\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/442072 LOCATION:Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/442072 ORGANIZER:p.wesling@ieee.org SEQUENCE:12 SUMMARY:Semiconductor Supply Chain “Eco System” Overview URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/442072 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p><img style="float: right\;" src="https://e vents.vtools.ieee.org/vtools_ui/media/display/e62176af-74e6-40bd-89fc-4f8e aa4f38f3" alt="" width="500" height="250">At the end of 2023 the semicondu ctor market had increased from $532 Billion in 2023 to $611 B mid-year 202 4.
