its second-generation dielectric etch tools, the Primo AD-RIE™ is now installed at leading Chinese foundry, SMIC. The customer will use the tool for process applications at nodes of 32/28nm and below. This is the first installation in China for the Primo AD-RIE™ which made its debut last summer at SEMICON West. An earlier version, the Primo D-RIE™, is already entrenched in the region. Additional Primo AD-RIE™ tools are installed at customer sites in Taiwan. Mo- reover, AMEC unveiled the Primo TSV200E™ – a compact, ultra high-productivity etch tool for 200mm wafer-level packaging, MEMS and 3DIC applications.
