During the “design /
mask creation” phase,
the function of the IC is defined, the
electric circuit is designed, and a mask for IC manufacturing is
created based on the design. |
|
|
During the front-end processing phase,
an IC is created on a silicon
substrate (referred to as a “wafer”). |
|
|
During the back-end processing phase,
the IC chips created during the front-end processing
phase are encapsulated into packages, and thoroughly
inspected before becoming completed products. |

This procedure is used for the formation
of a circuit pattern during various
front-end processes. |

|
|
|
A device insulation layer (field oxide-film) is
formed for electrical isolation of the
devices.

|
|
Transistors are formed in the active regions to control the flow of electrons.

|
|
|
Devices, such as transistors, are interconnected to form an electronic circuit.
