Project Title

AI-Enabled CMP Equipment Health & Breakage Risk Prediction Dashboard

Project Description

Chemical Mechanical Planarization (CMP) tool performance directly influences wafer quality, equipment reliability, and manufacturing efficiency. This project focuses on developing an AI-Enabled dashboard that integrates fab equipment and manufacturing data to identify early indicators of wafer breakage, equipment degradation, and yield excursions.

The intern will work on data exploration, predictive analytics, and visualization techniques to develop an intelligent monitoring solution that enables proactive decision-making. Through this project, the intern will gain exposure to semiconductor manufacturing equipment, reliability engineering methodologies, Artificial Intelligence applications, and data-driven engineering practices within a high-volume manufacturing environment.

Objective of the Project

Develop an AI-Enabled equipment monitoring and risk prediction dashboard capable of identifying potential CMP tool-related wafer breakage and excursion risks before significant manufacturing impact occurs.
