Founded in 1994 and headquartered in Hawthorne, NY, Microtronic designs, builds and delivers advanced systems and software for automated macro wafer defect inspection and data management for semiconductor processing. The company’s flagship macro defect inspection system, the EagleView 5, is known for its unprecedented speed, which enables it to automatically inspect 100% of every wafer in the lot without recipes. It produces high-resolution full-wafer color images with macro defects identified and categorized, and it stores all the information in the powerful ProcessGuard defect database and management system, which can inform all of the fab’s processing steps and inspections. The database can also integrate information from other microscopic and defect inspections. This same ProcessGuard software provides the database and defect management for the company’s new ProcessGuard Xtensis capability. Using the new Trans-Imager, ProcessGuard intelligence can now be extended directly to individual processing tools in the fab to provide a wealth of process-specific macro defect information. Microtronic, Inc. was the recipient of Texas Instrument’s Supplier Excellence Award in 2006 and Microtronic’s EAGLEview was voted Best of West Winner 2017.
