Worth knowing

Why it is interesting. Greenfield 300mm analog fab ramp — you qualify brand-new CMP and wet toolsets rather than babysitting a mature line.

Might not be for you. High-interrupt, high-volume fab support with lot dispositions and on-call-style production pressure — not open-ended R&D.
