Intentionally Shattering Wafers Inside The Fab | Intel

- Meet Ryan Parrott, Packaging Engineer at Intel. His job is to design and test the custom packaging solutions used to ship silicon wafers all over the world. In order to learn which solutions work, Ryan has got to push expensive wafers potentially containing thousands of processors to their breaking points.
The packaging used to ship wafers is called a Front-Opening Shipping Box, or FOSB. Each of these specially-designed boxes contain 25 glass-like, silicon wafers totaling $250,000 to multi-million US dollars per box depending on product. Each wafer is incredibly fragile, and it's Ryan's job to insure that each FOSB makes it to its destination with all wafers intact.
Check out Ryan's story, and stay tuned for more stories "Inside the Fab" at Intel.

Intentionally Shattering Wafers Inside The Fab | Intel

I cried when the wafers broke....
+finux Leong .DONT WORRYBOUT A COMPLELITLY UNDERSTANT....
That was a pretty good commercial, please make more of these, they're far more interesting than self promotion.
Just about the only ad I've sat through on YT where I had no interest in skipping and wanted to see more - nicely done.
Sean Inglis Get adblock.
+Something_to_appease_Google i think you need to re-read his sentence
@@Jack2421992 LMAO THEY ACTUALLY SAID GET AD BLCOK - I'M DEAED :JOY: 🤣🤣😂😂
I haven't seen a commercial this informative in... oh, wait. Never.
plzzzzzzzzz i just want 1 wafer! they are so beautiful
that sounds like the best job ever.
Imagine working nights and weekends to improve yields and then some guy breaks a whole FOUP of wafers for fun LOL - I felt a lot of pain watching this...
I find these videos very interesting, but they always stop after the introduction. It'd be great if there was more detail!
Dear Intel, now please upload full videos of these ads explaining the technology's you use, the implementations, the techniques and facilities that are involved. This is the tip of the iceberg you're showing for actual engineers like me. You're doing so much to make sure your products are perfect, but show us HOW, SHOW US MORE!!!
They probably don't want people to know too much about their stuff or else ppl will copy them.
Nice video. I had to look up fosb, which was probably around for a long time. Learning something new each day!
What is the distance between individual ICs on a wafer? How is wafer cut?
It is called a scribe line, usually around 100 um but it can vary a bit since this "lost space" is sometime used for test patterns, thus helping to verify that each process step worked well. It is cut with some sort of circular saw, you can find videos on CZcams for the die cutting step
Why isnt the slicing/bonding done onsite? wouldnt that be much better before transport?
It's not as specialized as wafer production and so it's shipped to internal or external suppliers for packaging due to cost or to have co-location.
You folks are so smart.
Good to see Intel is taking care of everything imagineable
Saw this ad and honestly thought they were talking about actual wafers... as in the biscuit things...
Why not put on a flotation device encapsulate the fosby and put water around it with colour? If it has been dopped the colour would indicate damage in transport ect and water will absorb shock and vibrations.
a genuinely interesting ad. nice job, intel.
I hate if i ask why Wafers are round in forums and get such tech jargon speak that baffle me even more than actually explain what the process is. I mean i understand why they are round, I'm more curious about if there is another way to make them say a pendulum instead of a centrifuge etc would it make them more or less usable etc. I'd love to see more of the process but i get that its all secret and hidden behind cloak and dagger doors. I just feel humans are getting smarter every day (great channel btw) but we surely could come up with an even better and more efficient way by now? square dices on round wafers just look so wasteful ^_^

I heard the first 20 seconds of this while in another tab, without watching. I thought it was a Kit-Kat commercial.
+Luke Kiley Music /KITKAT MUSICAL COMEDIES FILM AND OTHERS TOO
I love seeing those kinds of video :) thanks a lot
What is your job?
- Intentionally breaking wafers
👊Intel👊
Very interesting :), thanks for sharing it with us.
wafers ship vertically
why not try to use hyper memory in intel processors so that the processor processes data faster and gets rid of sdds with junk thanks thank you intel i want you to listen to me please you deserve the best way
Did it all start after fab 32 foup carrieage crash?
Imagine putting an entire Wafer into a single Huge CPU How powerful would that PC be (Give it 1TB DR4 Ram as well for good measure) So op Run Pro Tools 12HDX with 3000+ Tracks with under 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000001% CPU Usage.
Why to not produce chips and package them at same place? I talk about LGA packing
Alim Naizabek Cheap labor. Packing a chip is less advanced than fabbing a chip
Đỗ Đức Huy I don't think it involves much human labour. May be they do that to go around export laws.
It's because of environmental laws. Bump process involves some toxic chemicals in the solder (lead) so they have to do it outside of the states
***** How considerate of them, right?
Oo
Did the wafer had intel i7 chips on it????
...
Why are the wafers shipped horizontally and not vertically to get more strength?
In a single/loose box we can't control what orientation the wafers will be shipped in.
Heh, of course just realized that when you pointed that out.
How about putting it in a gyroscope thing with extra weight at the bottom so it stays upright and vertically, then put some kind of gel around it to protect it against sudden shock. Thanks for the reply anyway, sounds like a cool job.
Protect it from specter & Meltdown first
savage
We're doing that too :)
I want eat wafer now!
why don't you just simulate the vibrations digitally?
Packaging engineer?!!! Wtf ? I mean only intel could come up with a job and a title like this. :)
It sounds like it's a job Intel came up with, but it's surprisingly common. Any industry that ships a product has a packaging engineer or a team of them.
A bunch of universities offer degrees in the field and you can make good money doing it.
I want one wafer
if the aim is to get as many working chips from 1 wafer why the hell are they round not square
good question! im just pulling a guess out of thin air here but maybe the crystalline structure of silicon only forms as a cylinder. If so, they would actually lose more chips by cutting it as a square. like i said though, just a guess.

no bubble wrap?
come on guys..
how they suppose to have fun when opening them?
Where can I get a fasby?
Oussama Erraji Fosby.
Casey Stellar FOSB, says it in the desc
Churd RS
I know lol. I was just lightly trolling :P
Oussama Erraji Ebay. Search for Entegris SB300, you can pick one up for a couple of hundred USD. No idea why you'd want one outside of a fab or wafer dicing facility though.
The Start of 14nm++++++++++++++++
Wait... So you waste millions to test the endurance of a product to then ship them in cheap plastic containers???
what is this?
Wafer has like 200 cpus and they just break dozen of them.
They would certainly use wafers that for one reason or another are rejects anyway, if not that they would at least use raw wafers which are a tiny fraction of a price they are worth after you put functional electronics on them. The mechanical qualities are the same.
Is this how they ship the waffles to Waffle House?
it is just sand
SpctrProductions And you are "just" atoms
+noisebomb44 /2010 FOUNDATIN/ UNDERSTAND ALL THIS NUMBERS ITS JUST FOR GLOBAL PEOPLE
Stop breaking things, lol. This job is cut.
Moore's law won't last forever... 😑
