CAMTEK INTRODUCES THE FALCON, A FAST AUTOMATED OPTICAL INSPECTION SYSTEM FOR FINISHED SEMICONDUCTOR WAFERS

MARKER FORMAT-SHEET="Para Flush Lv 0-TNR" FSL="Workstation"

MIGDAL HAEMEK, Israel - August 4, 2003 - Camtek Ltd. (NASDAQ: CAMT) a developer and supplier of intelligent optical inspection systems, today announced the introduction of its new automated system for optical inspection of semiconductor wafers in their final manufacturing stages – the FALCON. The Falcon, which was first demonstrated at the Semicon West 2003 show in San Jose, offers synergistic surface inspection and 3-D metrology for wafers up to 300 mm in diameter. Camtek plans to install the first systems in the fourth quarter of 2003. “Known Good Die (KGD) is a prerequisite for packaging yield, and is getting even more critical in high density and 3-D packaging”, said Rafi Amit, Camtek’s CEO. “Automated Optical Inspection is quickly becoming an important tool for achieving KGD. The Falcon brings a new level of inspection capabilities to support enhanced yields and lower packaging costs”.

Built upon Camtek’s experience of over 10 years in developing intelligent optical inspection systems, the Falcon targets wafer-level in-line inspection at the FAB end-of-line, bumping and packaging facilities. On-the-fly scanning detects surface defects from micron to macro-levels, as well as multiple, missing or misplaced probe marks, bump size and placement deviations. Two available sensor types provide fast and high precision height measurement for comprehensive bump height, volume and co-planarity analysis. Off-line setup and review features maximize utilization.
