[@IntrospectivePest]

automation, you should see how steel is made is made, it's like 95% autonomous.

[@syth-1]

Also mass production, even with billions of dollars being put into r&d - they can recoup the cost with mass sales (keeping in mind, these chips are tiny and you could have hundreds per wafer and there are multitude of machines in operation at any given time. Yes yields are an issue, but from a wafer, and modern processes - you could be looking at upwards of 70% of the chips being usable. There are methods of compensating by repeating parts of the chip (like adding extra cores) and omitting them from the end product - as a fail safe for if there is a defect, they can still use the chip, And of course binning of different skews, (let's say half the cores came out defective, if you have a good product line, you can sell it from let's say an 8c model to a 4c - remember how all of them to produce cost the same though, which is why aiming for the best product and then binning from the bad yields is the best option for maximising profits)

[@SabinJohn]

Mass production my friend

[@siddartharayanplays203]

True but due to scale price is cheap

I am going to be more careful now with my devices, also after seeing this I won't feel so bad about paying really high prices for a little RAM chip.

[@LeMonke3]

They aren't damaged because chips are actually covered with an epoxy liquid that hardens before they're packaged, so there is no room for movement of any of the transistors on the chip as they're all sealed in a resin. The electricity can still get through the wires though of course.

They were just bigger - so one grain of dust in a million grains of air would not affect it. As for 'the first chip', machinery ran on thermionic vacuum tubes/valves in the early days, and you could make transistors and diodes out of them. Memory was provided by ferrite cores. The early chip-producing machines did not need to be fast, they just needed to create a functioning end product. Refinement, miniaturization and speed came later when the machinery itself was upgraded to solid-state (silicon transistors and semiconductor memory).

Fantastic lecture with a demonstration. I have attended Moore's Law, quantum computing, and manufacturing chips. Thanks.

[@heheboiii6285]

Its one of the inventions that we cannot thank scientists enough for.

[@charleschapman2428]

I worked for a company in Northern NJ in 1974 and we were growing crystals in ovens and regulating the pull speed by hand. It was a really good job, but they moved out of state, the rest is history.

[@ribeiroflyby9766]

👏👏👏.

[@jediflamaster]

Yeah seems easy enough. I'll make my own tomorrow, thanks.

[@Anonymoususer6541]

Did your tomorrow gone or going to be held??😂

[@Haritsa-N]

Have you finished cleaning your room for it to be the "clean room" to commence the making, yet? 😅

To think that someone or some people had the intelligence to figure this out is astounding.

[@samsebin7895]

I wonder who did this 🤔

[@deepanshumehra2409]

At 3:57 I need confirmation why the source and drain have different charge in MOSFET, doesn't their charge produce only after the gate is applied with charge.

[@barbarossa11]

At what stage is the silicon p-doped? I only seem to catch the n-doping...

in a nutshell: chip makers are modern day SAND sculptures.

[@larriyrnir5756]

The sand mined from mines Normal is too low quality

Well said

I will never take my CPU for granted again.

the existential question .. how are the machines that manufactures these nano scale chips made? they themselves contain the few nanometers transistor technologies .. the creator is made out of his creation!

[@ClayWheeler]

You answered your own question. Historically speaking, the first ever machine that produce transistor is very big. Like a Barn. And then they decided to make technological advances out of transistors that already been made into making a Smaller transistor than the first one. And repeat. That process went for tens of years from 1947 to this day. Everything literally went through Trials and Errors. To the point where Transistor can no longer be made out of something purely Conductive because it will gets easily overheat, the scientist need to came out with solutions. This is the point where semiconductive Transistor ideas came out. The scientist need to find a way to make a transistor able to withstand overheating until they experimented with the Sand aka Silicon. Now regarding your question about how did they make nanometers scale of transistors? How did they actually cut it or sculpt it .Like have you ever tried to burn something using Magnifying Glass and Sun light? That's how they experimented with.

[@aymangigo]

@@ClayWheeler thanks for your detailed answer

[@Debbiebabe69]

The smaller chip sizes simply give the end product more speed. You could probably run the software for these robots on 20-year old machines.

[@Defenestrators]

this is why I am addicted to college. It's just impossible to find more complex explanations than this on silicon chips

just watched this entire video and hardly understood any of it....however, I do have a great respect for those who do and help improve our lives daily.....thanks much

@Accurate Mediator HD CH1 the tech is made by people and I think people are getting dumb by it, BUT are more people that are getting smarter by it and have an 360 degree awarnes of the environment and they are living natural lives, actual lives.

Now someone is coming out and giving in detail information of chip production. Love you infineon.

[@andreidanilov9925]

No microchip company ever uses desert sand to make the chips. Normal sand is too unpure. Usually, they make it out of quartz sand

[@eng.makolal1367]

Everything can be purified!

@Apple quartz is roughly 12% of land crust, that’s more than enough to never run out

[@NikolausUndRupprecht]

I thought that, too. But it was probably easier to get some stock footage of a desert than footage of the actual sand pit from which they extract their raw materials.

Considering the median pay for the integrated circuit board engineers (the ones with the computers converting schematic drawings to physical layout) is only $35,000, I'd hold off.

Which part in this video that explain how transistor created on silica wafer? I dont heard the word Transistor mentioned. Please help me to understand

6:55-10:00 is where they build up the transistors layer by layer.

They are actually in partnership for many years and recently extended it for specialized chip for self driving cars, although that partnership is more for co development than sharing tech
