On October 18, Peter Wennink, CEO of ASML, a leading Dutch lithography machine company, said that demand from chip manufacturers in mainland China is expected to remain strong. "The demand for mature technologies in mainland China will be quite large, and I don't think it will peak this year," Wennink said at a press conference after the release of third-quarter results. The latest financial report data shows that in the third quarter of 2023, ASML achieved net sales of 6.7 billion euros, a gross profit margin of 51.9%, and a net profit of 1.9 billion euros. The value of new orders in the third quarter of this year was 2.6 billion euros, of which 500 million euros were orders for EUV lithography machines. By region, of the equipment sold by ASML in the third quarter, customers in mainland China accounted for 46%, followed by Taiwan, China, which accounted for 24%, and South Korea, which accounted for 20%. Looking forward, ASML believes that the semiconductor industry is at the bottom of the cycle, and customers are looking forward to seeing an inflection point at the end of this year. Customers are still uncertain about the recovery of demand within the industry, so we expect 2024 to be a transition year. Based on the current view, the company is conservative about 2024 and expects annual revenue to be basically the same as in 2023. At the same time, 2024 will also be an important year to lay the foundation for substantial growth in 2025. Reposted from: International Electronic Commerce, automatically translated by Google

MSL: MSL is the abbreviation of Moisture Sensitivity Level, which means the moisture sensitivity level. MSL is proposed to provide a classification standard for the packaging of moisture-sensitive SMD components, so that different types of components can be packaged, stored and handled correctly, and accidents can be avoided during assembly or repair. Generally, the packaged IC, colloid or Substrate PCB will absorb moisture in a normal environment, resulting in "popcorn" (POPCORN) when the IC goes through SMT reflow soldering. Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is used to define the level of IC in terms of moisture absorption and shelf life. If the IC exceeds the shelf life, there is no guarantee that it will not absorb too much moisture and cause POPCORN during SMT reflow soldering . Therefore, bake the IC beyond the shelf life. The process of MSL determination is: (1) Carry out SAT on the good product IC to confirm that there is no delamination. (2) Bake the IC to completely remove moisture. (3) Humidification according to MSL level. (4) Pass IR-Reflow 3 times (analog IC assembly, maintenance dismantling, maintenance and assembly). (5) SAT inspection for delamination and IC test function. If it can pass the above test, it means that the IC package meets the MSL level. The classification of MSL has 8 levels, as follows: Class 1 - Less than or equal to 30°C/85% RH Unlimited workshop life Class 2 - Less than or equal to 30°C/60% RH One year workshop life Class 2a - Less than or equal to 30°C/60% RH Four week workshop life Class 3 - Less than or equal to 30°C/60% RH 168 hours workshop life Class 4 - Less than or equal to 30°C/60% RH 72 hours workshop life Class 5 - Less than or equal to 30°C/60% RH 48 hours workshop life Class 5a - Less than or equal to 30°C/60% RH 24 hour workshop life Class 6 - Less than or equal to 30°C/60% RH 72 hours floor life (for Class 6, components must be baked prior to use and must be reflowed within the time limit specified on the Moisture Sensitive Caution Label) Moisture not only seriously accelerates the damage of electronic components, but also has a huge impact on the components during the soldering process. This is because the component soldering on the product production line is performed at high temperature by wave soldering or reflow soldering and automatically by the soldering equipment. Completed. When the components are fixed to the PCB board, the rapid heating of reflow soldering will create pressure inside the components. Due to the different coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) rates of different package structure materials, it may cause stress that the component package cannot bear. When the components are exposed to reflow soldering, the moisture inside the SMD components can generate enough vapor pressure to damage or destroy the components due to the rising temperature environment. Common conditions include plastic separation (delamination) from the inside of the chip or lead frame, gold wire solder damage, chip damage, and cracks inside the component (not visible on the component surface). In some extreme cases, cracks can extend to the surface of the component, and in severe cases, the component bulges and pops (called the "popcorn" effect). Although a small amount of moisture is acceptable at 180°C to 200°C during reflow soldering operations, any presence of humidity in lead-free processes in the range of 230°C to 260°C can form enough to cause damage to the package. Small explosions (popcorn-like) or layers of material. Therefore, it is necessary to choose wise packaging materials, carefully control the assembly environment, and adopt measures such as sealing packaging and placing desiccant during transportation. In fact, foreign countries often use humidity tracking systems equipped with radio frequency tags, local control units and special software to display and control the humidity in packaging, testing lines, transportation/operation and assembly operations in real time.

Precision oven suits baking for electronic components, rubber, plastics, decorative materials, which has stricter requirement on temperature uniformity. As a professional precision oven manufacturer, EJER has mature production technology, reliable after-sales service, professional technical guidance, bring users a different experience. Today we introduce our precision oven features, so you can have a preliminary understanding about the difference between precision oven and ordinary industrial oven. 1.

The vacuum oven is divided into two categories: one is benchtop vacuum oven, the other is the vertical vacuum oven, so what is the specific difference? What is in the common? Difference: Benchtop vacuum oven standard configuration does not include vacuum pump, customers need to add vacuum pump outside the oven, it is an option. Vertical vacuum oven standard configuration consist of upper body and lower body, that is, above is the studio, below is the vacuum pump cabinet (including vacuum pump), no need to match the vacuum pump additionally, it is more convenient to use. Common Points: The common points between vertical and benchtop vacuum oven is that they are widely used in biochemistry, chemical pharmaceuticals. Medical and health, agricultural research, environmental protection and other research fields, for powder drying, baking and all kinds of glassware disinfection and sterilization. Especially suitable for drying heat sensitive, easy to decompose, easy to oxidize substances and complex components for rapid drying treatment.

Vacuum drying oven is specially designed for drying heat sensitive, easy to decompose and easy to oxidize substances. It can be filled with inert gas inside the vacuum oven, especially some articles with complex composition can also be distributed for rapid drying. Vacuum degree refers to the degree of gas thinning in the vacuum state, which is usually marked by “high vacuum degree” and “low vacuum degree “, If the pressure in the measured equipment is lower than the atmospheric pressure, the pressure measurement requires a vacuum gauge. The values read from the vacuum gauge are called vacuum. The vacuum value is the value indicating that the actual pressure of the system is lower than the atmospheric pressure, that is, the vacuum degree = the atmospheric pressure – the absolute pressure, the absolute pressure = the atmospheric pressure gauge pressure (- the vacuum degree). The international vacuum industry uses “vacuum”, is also the most scientific use of absolute pressure identification, refers to the “limit vacuum, absolute vacuum, absolute pressure “, but due to easy measurement, easy to purchase the measuring instruments ” relative vacuum ” is also widely used. More details, welcome for inquiry.
