The University of California, Berkeley, announces two
intensive short courses in San Francisco/Burlingame:



I.   "CHEMICAL VAPOR DEPOSITION (CVD) FOR SILICON 
               INTEGRATED CIRCUITS",  

September 11-13, 1995 at the San Francisco Airport,
Burlingame, California

This course is intended to give you a fundamental,
practical understanding of CVD as it applies to 
IC fabrication. It also serves as an update for
process Engineers with a background in CVD. 

Topics covered: Fundamentals of CVD; Mathematical Modeling 
of CVD Processes; Thermal CVD---Epitaxial Silicon and
Polysilicon Films; Thermal CVD---Polysilicon and Dielectric
Films; Thermal CVD---Conducting Films; Thermal CVD---
Selective Deposition of Conducting Films, Barrier
Films; Plasma-Enhanced CVD; CVD Reactors---Atmospheric
and Low Pressure Systems; CVD Reactors---Single-Wafer and
Multichamber Systems.  


INSTRUCTORS:

Dennis W. Hess, Ph.D., Professor and Chairman of the Chemical
Engineering Dept., Lehigh University, Bethlehem, PA

Ted Kamins, Ph.D., Project Leader at Hewlett-Packard, Palo
Alto, CA

Arthur Sherman, Ph.D., Consultant in CVD, Palo Alto, CA 

FEE:  $995

II.         "ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE (ESD) 
               IN INTEGRATED CIRCUITS"

October 9-10, 1995, at the San Francisco Airport,
Burlingame, California

This course is for circuit designers, process development
engineers and product/reliability engineers.  While most
protection techniques presented emphasize CMOS technology,
the material is applicable to engineers working on other
technologies.

Topics covered:  ESD in ICs; Testing for ESD; Basics of
ESD Protection; Failure Modes and Characterization; 
CMOS ESD Input Protection; Transmission Line Pulsing; 
Wafer Level Monitor; Device Physics; CMOS Output Protection;
Process Effects; Internal Protection; CDM Phenomena
and Protection; Bipolar/BiCMOS Protection; Failure Analysis
Tools; Device and Circuit Simulations; Electrical Overstress;
Case Studies.
