Making semiconductors
A complex process
Manufacturing a computer chip is a complex process involving hundreds of steps and requiring from a few days to up to three months of processing time to
complete. Chip making demands incredible precision, careful attention to detail, and constant testing.
IBM is a leader in chip manufacturing, and has invested extensively in its world-class facilities to be able to produce some of the most advanced memory,
logic, and microprocessor chips in the industry.
Thanks to IBM's technology breakthroughs in silicon germanium (SiGe), copper,
and Silicon-on-Insulator (SOI), IBM produces semiconductors that are faster, smaller, more powerful, and less expensive than were previously available.
