Pivotal Systems provides products that solve some of the toughest plasma etch and deposition challenges in high-volume manufacturing, providing a compelling ROI through measurable gains in yields and productivity of existing toolsets. With a turnkey combination of non-intrusive sensors and application software, Pivotal products are designed to monitor, control and optimize CVD, Etch and Strip processes. This is accomplished with a suite of in situ, closed-loop control solutions that keep plasma-based etch and deposition processes centered in the process window, regardless of drifts in process or tool parameters. In the last several years, Pivotal solutions have been proven in both memory and logic high volume manufacturing environments, providing significant yield and capacity improvements.
