Title:日本顛覆台積電霸業的秘密武器?
台積電最新的超大晶圓廠(GIGAFAB),每個月可生產超過10萬片12吋晶圓,每座造價高達3
千億元。但今年4月1日,日本推出的「迷你晶圓廠」(Minimal Fab),瞄準物聯網時代小
量、多樣的感測器需求,起價卻只要5億日幣(1.7億元台幣)。《日經商業週刊》稱之為:
「顛覆全球半導體業界的製造系統」。
● 天下編輯每日為您送上第一手新聞,掌握財經時事,對焦國際零時差! >>
這個由經濟產業省主導,由140間日本企業、團體聯合開發的新世代製造系統,,目標是
透過成本與技術門檻的大幅降低,讓汽車與家電廠商能自己生產所需的半導體及感應器。
形同推翻台積電董事長張忠謀30年前所創的晶圓代工模式,重回早年飛利浦、索尼等大廠
都自己生產半導體的垂直整合時代。
販賣這種生產系統的,是日本橫河電機集團旗下的橫河解決方案。每台外型流線、美觀的
製造機台,大小約與飲料自動販賣機差不多,但各自具備洗淨、加熱、曝光等功能。每一
台機器,都相當於一條半導體製造的生產線。一條「迷你晶圓廠」產線,所需的最小面積
是大約是兩個網球場的大小。也僅是一座12吋晶圓廠的百分之一面積。
「迷你晶圓廠」能夠做到如此廉價、體積小,首先是挑戰業界常識的創新做法──不需要
無塵室。
半導體晶片上如果沾有超過0.1微米的灰塵就算是不良品,為此,製造室內一定要保持超
高潔淨度。維持無塵室需要大量的電力,因此不只投資金額很高、維持費用也相當驚人。
所以半導體不大量生產的話,很難獲利。
產業技術總合研究所的原史朗挑戰了這項業界的常識。「半導體工廠真的需要無塵室嗎?
明明需要隔絕灰塵的只有晶圓而已。」抱持著這項疑問,原史朗從1990年代開始構想「迷
你晶圓廠」。
幾年後,原史朗終於開發出局部無塵化的關鍵技術,並將此成果製出特殊運輸系統「
Minimal Shuttle」。利用電磁鐵控制開關,幾乎不會有灰塵進入。
「迷你晶圓廠」的另一個特點,是不需要用到光罩,這又可大幅降低成本。Minimal Fab
的概念,就是那樣的時代十分需要的多種少量生產系統。要處理的晶圓大約直徑0.5英吋
,比一日圓硬幣還要小。因為晶圓很小,所以生產裝置也要跟著變小。
晶片從晶圓上切割下來,大約一平方公分大小。「迷你晶圓廠」的年產量大約是50萬個,
一般的12吋晶圓廠則是兩億個。如果只生產一萬個,市面上每一晶片要收1萬日圓,但「
迷你晶圓廠」只要收1200日圓。
這項「迷你晶圓廠」的研發計畫,源自2010年。從2012年開始的三年內,獲得經濟產業省
的預算,計畫也隨之通過。現在包含許多製造大廠在內,共140間企業團體參與。雖然是
由橫河解決方案在販售,可是參與開發製造的日本中小企業大約有30間,這也是該設備的
一大特色之一。
目前「迷你晶圓廠」的半導體前段製程所需的設備,已經大致研發完畢,開始正式販售。
預計2018年以前,切割晶片功能與封裝等的後段製程設備也會開發完成。
