=====Unaxis ICP-PECVD is UP for Non-GapFill=====
Tool is up for NON-GapFill (450W RF Bias) Recipes. Other Std SiO2/SiN deps are available.
Next Week Monday Oct 16th to Wed 18th we will allow GapFill (450W RF Bias) recipes to be run.
Please plan your process accordingly.
Also we are still testing our own GapFill recipe that hopefully reduces flakes. Once this is ready you’ll want to qualify our new recipe to make sure it works for your application, as the old GapFill recipe will eventually be deprecated & disallowed.


=====New Gowns: Toolbelts purchases=====
//[[User:Mehalana v|Vraj Mehalana]] 09:55, 11 October 2023 (PDT)

===== Dicing Saw Upgrade - Update=====
=====Suss SB6-8E=====
We found a blown resistor (and a questionable op amp) on one of the boards that contains the z-axis motor circuit. However, we still cannot get the tool to initialize. Next we will try swapping out the hard drive again and run some more tests.
The upgrade work on the saw is completed. My plan is to work on updating the SOP and running some more tests tomorrow and Monday. If all goes smoothly I should be ready to start re-training users on Tuesday, so I should be sending out an email some time Monday in regard to the re-training schedule.


I will send out an update once we have one.
