| dc.description.abstract | U.S.-China trade war, strong demand from automotive chip and the impact of COVID-19 , with other issues , making the global demand for wafer ICs urgent, resulting in wafer foundry capacity from the second half of 2019 is a difficult to find, semiconductor supply risk at this time has become a hot topic of global discussion. Taiwan′s wafer industry, driven by this wave of demand growth, has become the biggest beneficiary and faces a significant threat to supply management.
The beginning of the U.S.-China trade war, let the key materials of wafer bumping process, facing a panic preparation situation, make the production capacity of material suppliers tight, and began to reduce the commitment quantity to some of foundry, it is resulting in inventory often have the shortage ; Due to their industrial characteristics, the process materials in bumping factory ,are almost a single source , therefore , the foundry is faced with the greatest moment of threat to the source of supply, in addition to the opportunity for good orders.
From customer strong requirements and to ensure that their supply is not interrupted, this study uses failure mode and effect analysis (FMEA) as a risk assessment tool to establish an effective supply risk assessment methodology, provide small and specialized wafer foundry, and make decisions that are consistent with risk reduction and cost balancing. | en_US |
