- Join us for a tour of Micron Technology’s Taiwan chip manufacturing facilities to discover how chips are produced and how innovations in the semiconductor industry impact people and businesses all over the world.
Take a look inside one of the semiconductor factories that make Taiwan the most significant site of semiconductor production in the world. Thanks to modern technology and constant innovations, chip manufacturing advances at a rapid pace. Today, each silicon microchip contains over 100 billion transistors, the switches that make up the basic units of computing. Each transistor is just a few nanometers in size, making them a fraction of the size of a human hair.
This means that even the slightest contamination can halt the entire chip production process. In fact, the semiconductor manufacturing process contains over 1,000 steps, all of which must be executed perfectly to produce functional chips. In Micron’s mega factory, silicon wafers are processed with incredible precision. The dustless factory is highly automated, which minimizes the number of humans required to enter. Each silicon wafer is coated in a UV-sensitive liquid, then etched using photolithography. We exhibit the entire process here in high resolution, giving you an inside look into the workings of one of the most high-tech factories in the world.
Micron Technology is a global leader in the semiconductor industry and produces leading-edge memory products. Its neighbor Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) produces industry-leading logic technology. These two companies constitute a large portion of the Taiwanese semiconductor industry, which spans the island from north to south. As they grow and continue to innovate, their products require more and more resources to produce, putting increasing pressure on the environment. Micron leaders share how they are expanding their innovative approach into the area of resource management, enabling them to create more sustainable products.

Love this kind of documentary! Much better than netflix’s documentaries.
Thank you!
this is good, but it didn't get anywhere near the 1,000 steps to creating a chip
@@davidanalyst671why
DW is good.
The video was soo clean I used it to clean my lappy screen. Thanks Taiwan.
Taiwan is the giant in the tech industry.. Literally every tech chips and micro products made in Taiwan. Love From Bangladesh. And salute to the engineers and people who involve in this.❤️
Только производяться ! А оборудование, технологии и разработка это все Европа , США и Япония!
@@Colenuiogyreztaiwan have company make their own chips compete with usa phone chip maker mediateck and now investing in make factory inside usa
Education matters, if you can do away with backwards of religion you can be like Taiwan
@@mussabgasmelseed5079 The tech belongs to the US. That's why US was able to ban semiconductor export to China. Think of Taiwan and S.Korea as US partners in technology.
@@alloy5317 the tech "belongs" to ASML of the Netherlands who were pressured by the US government to stop the sale of leading edge lithography machines.
Keep Taiwan strong and independent
Lol, Taiwan is Chinese territory, and is even recognized by the US
Taiwan belongs to chine. Why don't you Americans take care of your f*cking country? stop meddling in the politics of other countries.
@@araujofi But the United States will not allow China to interfere in Taiwan's rule.So, go to sleep, you will have everything when you dream. Hahaha....🤣🤣🤣
You should pull out the Constitution in the Presidential Palace and see that it reads, 中華民國, Republic Of China, ROC. Taiwan is a land mass. Good luck with the brainwashing.
Yes, the US is always interfering in other countries' affairs, nothing unusual@@silmonliu7836
Taiwan is a truly incredible country full of truly incredible people! Their hard work, talent, and ingenuity makes the world a better place for everyone. Massive respect!
:D :D :D
Never as a country.
every country famous of something
like others famous of colonizing , occupying , spreading diseases , declaring wars .
@@AwardQueue真愛嘴 😂
@@AwardQueue poor guy
Many people think that Asia's tech powerhouses are only Japan, China, and South Korea. But this small island Taiwan are strong, at least in the semiconductor field.
😂 Nobody thinks that. China is NOT a tech "powerhouse." They are a cheap labor powerhouse where tech is sent to be assembled. China doesn't create tech. They assemble tech for the people who create it. They are simply a big population that the free world used as cheap labor after collapsing the Soviet Union.
Why did you mention China twice?
@@rustyshaklford9557 China is just an American sweatshop with a billion peasants to assemble our stuff. Taiwan is an American partner. Educate yourself.
@@rustyshaklford9557 now get back in the factory and assemble my iPhone. STOP jumping off the roof. It's bad for business 🤣🤣🤣
@@AllDay3090如果没有美国政府阻止 iPhone的存储器和屏幕都将来自中国设计和制造 懂？😂😂😂
Fantastic documentary and hats off to the brainy Taiwanese who can pull it off.But above all, the genius of the pioneers at Micron who came up with the idea. True success story!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The process to make these devices is staggering. I’m always blown away that people created the machines that make this miraculous chips.
If you wanna see how pure , small and complex a mankind can achieve then look inside such fab plant. It is not just these complex and mostly automated steps, alot of physics, equations , design kits, chemical recipes, measurements, statistics, marketing and what not is involved. I working in a small semiconductor company and have witnessed these complexity and cost of each such step. This Video is amazing.
Most people can't even begin to understand the complex nature of this even being possible! It's unbelievable we can even do this!
This was AMAZING! Taiwan is AMAZING!
Proud micron mmt employee here ❤
I’m from Boise, Idaho. My family also lives in Manassas. I don’t know many people who haven’t worked at micron! All the best!
Thanks for the documentary,
Excellent program of Taiwan Plus.

Excellent engineering innovation dear Taiwanese.Wish you to do many more high degree of innovation for betterment of humanity.
The level of attention to detail and care for each an every process is really something to be an example for any industry. Taiwan not only innovates in chip making, but also in resource management and environmental responsibility. Truly Inspiring.
Taiwan's Industrial and Overall Economic Strength.
Many people are unaware of the industrial and overall economic strength of Taiwan today.
Taiwan has a well-developed technology and manufacturing sector. It is ranked first in the world in semiconductor chip manufacturing, first in the world in ICT equipment manufacturing, third in the world in machinery and components manufacturing, third in the world in biotechnology companies, fourth in the world in machine tools, sixth in the world in chemical plants, and fifth in the world in shipbuilding tonnage. Taiwan's aerospace industry is also ranked sixth in the world in terms of output. Taiwan is also the world's largest and most technologically advanced carbon fiber composite material OEM, with applications ranging from tennis rackets and bicycles to aircraft components.
Taiwan has many companies that are hidden champions in the global manufacturing sector. These companies are at the top of their respective industries, but they are not well-known to the general public. Taiwan has developed its own supercomputers, AI computers, quantum chips, satellites, and has successfully test-fired military space rockets on multiple occasions.
In terms of overall technology and manufacturing strength, Taiwan is on par with the United States, Japan, and the EU industrial countries. Taiwan is currently the 20th largest economy in the world, with total foreign investment assets of over $2 trillion. It is the fifth largest foreign investor in the world and the fifth largest net creditor nation.
Manufacturing accounts for over 36% of Taiwan's GDP and contributes over 50% to economic growth, the highest in Asia. Taiwan's listed companies invest and set up factories overseas, and their overseas offshore processing and manufacturing import and export trade exceeds $1 trillion each year (most of which is included in Hong Kong's import and export trade figures). The import and export trade of these Taiwanese companies is not included in Taiwan's import and export trade figures.
If the import and export trade of Taiwanese companies' overseas factories is included in Taiwan's own import and export trade figures, the total global trade volume of Taiwanese companies will reach $1.9 trillion, surpassing Japan and the Netherlands to become the fourth largest trading power in the world after the United States, China, and Germany.
Taiwanese companies' overseas factories have supported the families of hundreds of millions of employees in China, Vietnam, and Southeast Asia.
It is estimated that Taiwan will enter the top 20 economies in the world in 2023 based on its own domestic production and manufacturing import and export trade, becoming a member of the G20. Among the G20 countries, Taiwan is the only one with no natural resources, relying solely on manufacturing, and with a population of 23.5 million and the smallest land area.
What an outstanding video....!! I have lost my words...!!
Amazing cutting edge technology....!! Wow...!!
Love and Respect for Taiwan from Bangladesh...!!
Thank you so much 😀
Superb, incredible too. Embedding billions of circuits and transistors on a palm sized wafer is just making impossible possible. Thanks to Taiwan in chip making intelligence.
Is absolutely amazing the knowledge and the complexity that humans have achieved.
U.S.A SUPPORTS TAIWAN 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Taiwan is the best of the best semiconductor manufacturing 💪🏻
I really love how it aims to leave less carbon footprint 👣 , well done taiwan ❤
I am impressed by Taiwan's technology.
ASML's technology. The Dutch
@@davidanalyst671 Owning ASML equipment can’t make you able to have cutting-edge skill of producing chips.
@@davidanalyst671 Microchip technology. USA founding
@@TsaicheW microchip design is mostly from the US, while the litho machines come from the Netherlands. ASML is the one who for a large part dictates progress in the semi conductor field as it is due to them that gates, transistors etc can be further miniaturized. Taiwan as a manufacturing hub is of great importance but due to the fabs opening in the EU and US this importance is shrinking rapidly. The production of microchips is far less complex than pushing physics (ASML) but that also applies to the design of new functionality through microchips. TSMC has a whole team of ASML employees present for maintenance as they are unable to do so themselves - the complexity is simply too great. TSMC is important but their importance should not be over-inflated.
Lastly, TSMC was originally setup as a joint venture between the Taiwanese government and Philips of the Netherlands. ASML in turn is a spin-off of Philips. It all comes full circle.
@@ntro9347Have you seen the size of the TSMC factory? An ASML EUV machine is the size of a bus. Yes you can’t produce the best semiconductor chips without ASML machines but there must more to it than simply ASML. In other words maybe the Dutch should give it a try. Or the Americans can simply buy an ASML EUV machine and produce the best semiconductors themselves instead of asking TSMC to open a factory in Arizona.
Taiwan number one !!! 😊
Some of the most important factories on Earth producing the most in-demand product on Earth in the most futuristic work environment I've ever seen, staffed by undoubtedly some of the smartest and most well-educated people on the planet. Truly amazing.
the containers on rails on the ceiling are awesome
Those Muratec machines are called OHT (Overhead Hoist Transport). Muratec and Daifuku are the two Japanese firms that dominate the market for supplying such machines.
You guys rock , great example of what real lean culture and dedication to excellence looks like
I'm sold I am just amazed by cutting edge technology 😲🤯🤗🤞🏻
I'm heading to Taiwan and this engineering marvel is on my must visit list!
Best' video for internet good luck 🤞🤞

Amazing
I wish I could visit the place
How to make chips
1.) cut the potatoes thin
2.) heat up the deep fryer
3.) cook the chips to liking
4.) indulge
they are making them without potatoes which is amazing :]
Won't work without oil of some sort...
Hillbilly chips
This is absolutely amazing
Thank you! Taiwan has also some other mega factories, have you tried Kaoliang liquor? Take a look: th-cam.com/video/EKmOmk5rMdw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=IEcddHYZyfTgbPrV

How anyone in the world ever thought to use UV-light to make semiconductors on such a microscopic scale is immensely impressive and innovative. This is truly one of the most astonishing discoveries in the history of mankind.
I am a electronics student and this video have idea about how modern technology helps designing a chip, billion of transistor placed accurately and head out to the world effectively
3:54 what a sick transition, beautiful!
The most beautiful transistor transition I've ever seen
Both China and Taiwan is pride of Asia. So as we love both China and Taiwan we don't want war between You. China and Taiwan both technically advanced and important countries for the world. So I request to Taiwan and Chinese government and people please try to avoid war, don't listen to USA , Taiwan please become a part or state of China. It's far more beneficial rather than engaging in war .
There are a lot of semiconductor equipment from Japanese companies in the video,
But Japan has lost the competition in semiconductor manufacturing,
What an irony
That's not ironic.
This video makes me feel like I'm a cave men. Very smart people out there
Excellent documentary! Any chance we get something similar from inside one of TSMC's fabs?😬
I work for micron boise! 💪 cool to see some of our parts we make in action!!! Very good documentary as well!

Hey I am from india
and madlely love this job
What qualifications required
Please tell
@@Mr.Tapori it all just depends, there are so many different levels of jobs required to make a fab like this operate. Some technician jobs require no experience and education and some jobs are very elite requiring many years of university and experience. Not to mention all the support jobs outside of fab that are essential for operations. Literally it takes a village to operate a fab….any specific question you have for a certain type of job maybe I can help you better!

Outstanding documentary. TSMC is the next Apple and Microsoft, but it s too soon for this conversation😂
3D printing Factories could be like this in the future for new types of components.
Learnt a lot thanks!❤
Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!
I've worked in microchips industry for 15yrs now, 5yrs in Philippines, 3yrs in the US and 7yrs here in Taiwan.
Watching this documentary is like watching your face in the mirror, every thing is so familiar to me. lol!
Hahaha, might be quite a special feeling for people like you who work in the fab!
More power to Asia
I got to scrape about 7 million in wafers to day and I tell you, it was relieving. Like going to a smash room but getting paid to break stuff.
If we had such qualified people in politics, the world would be much better, maybe the paradise.

Imagine:
You're going for that interview on zoom just to see so many heads.
You realize the window you're in is being broadcasted on the "Starship's" huge ass screen.
India is also setting up it's semiconductor factory in Gujarat & Assam
I hope we aslo able to manufacture Hi tech- Advanced chips for India and for the world.
Why those high tech companies from Taiwan are leaving or running away from India. Go check the reason.
Why Taiwan hi tech companies are leaving or already left India, go check out the reason.
Now India is going to have three semiconductor plant two in Gujarat and other one in Assam.❤
