You're absolutely right, I just sort of assumed it would be easily available.
Nothing specific, I wanted an overview of the whole thing. I guess the question I'm asking myself is "What would I need to know if I wanted to setup a fab from the ground up?" Which materials are used and where they come from, the different types of companies that would need to be involved and why (e.g. ASML) and so on.
But honestly, I don't really know much. So an intro to semiconductor manufacturing that could be read by a plain old software engineer would also be great.

- tanseydavid 5y agoA guy named Sam Zeloof is fabbing functional chips in his garage. I think you might gain a lot from watching his videos about the process. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IS5ycm7VfXg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IS5ycm7VfXg
