Sustainability: Facility and Infrastructure Requirements</a><br/></strong>Hard data and strong collaboration are proving effective in solving the challenges inherent in building 450mm semiconductor fabs. In the past year, the Facilities 450mm Consortium (F450C) — the facilities-focused off-shoot of the Global 450mm Consortium — has provided the unified forum to test and analyze utility requirements, overhead conveyance systems and energy-efficiency strategies. (A. Maynes/F. Robertson, G450C, in SST, June 20)<br/><br/><strong><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140625183944/http://www.semi.org/node/50201">450mm Standards Update<br/></a></strong>While the timing of a transition to 450mm wafers remains unclear, the industry is continuing to develop the standards that will be essential to high-volume manufacturing on larger substrates. The first standard proposal was submitted in 2007, and SEMI has since published nearly <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140625183944/http://www.semi.org/en/node/41211">twenty 450mm-related Standards</a>.  New standards are being developed as the industry identifies new requirements, and revisions to published standards are being made as areas for improvement are recognized. (Kevin Nguyen, SEMI, June 10)</p><p><strong><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20140625183944/http://semiengineering.com/is-450mm-dead-in-the-water/" target="_blank">Is 450mm Dead in the Water?<br/></a></strong>At one time, Intel, TSMC and Samsung were aggressively beating the 450mm drum. Chipmakers wanted, if not demanded, 450mm pilot line fabs by 2016, with high-volume manufacturing 450mm plants slated by 2018.  At least for those companies, 450mm made some sense. Moving to 450mm wafers would supposedly give chipmakers a 2.25x boost in wafer area and a 30% cost reduction over 300mm substrates. But, of course, the business model was (and still is) shaky.
