How are microchips made - from sand to semiconductor: Microelectronics usually is hidden to society – however, it is a constant companion in our daily lives. It tremendously contributes to the ongoing development and digitization of our world. But what is actually behind this technology?

This is how semiconductors work! In this video we explain how microchips are made and what conditions are necessary for manufacturing.

  • How are Microchips made? watches the whole video Me: How are Microchips made?
  • @PhdHung
    I don't know what's more impressive - the microchip, or the machine that made the microchip
  • @guscichoski
    We kinda take microchips for granted at this point, but the fact that such high quantities are available while being so hard to make is impressive.
  • @Alaejakoons
    I work for a microchip manufacturing plant. I add layers of Oxynitride to 8in (150m wafers) just one of the HUNDREDS of steps needed to build these suckers. Even i was wowed seeing this video! The process trully is incredible. Im lucky to be apart of it!

    Scientists and Engineers are the true celebrity in my eyes. It ain't sexy alright but their work impacts every SINGLE person on earth - EVERY DAY.
  • @141martin
    This chip shortage situation got me looking into how they are made . Very impressive
  • @Marque734
    All chips start out with a very simple raw material: Potatoes
  • @RSKEDITS
    If this was told in a science fiction movie, i would've said: impossible in real life.
  • @TouYubeKids
    I come here to understand better, now i'm confused better
  • @AKAHEIZER
    That's the German way of YouTube, not funny, not really entertaining, but highly detailed, informational and educational. 🇩🇪
  • @blujay2084
    Nice video. I was an IT hardware technician for almost 40 years and I still marvel at what mankind can do.
  • @Innosos
    I find it hard to accept that "some company video" was that concise and informative. Kudos Infineon!
  • @BaddyK
    Look I have hips of sand in my backyard, you can come take all of it for free just promise me a ryzen 9 5900x
  • Honestly, this is one the best videos that explain the process of making microchips with clear and detailed animations. So easy to understand even for simply curious people outside of the field.. Thanks!
  • @SpiceFox
    This is a really good video. I am actually a bit flabbergasted that something created by a giant company for the general public manages to be this concise, informative, and doesn’t treat the viewer like a child. Seriously well done
  • This makes me wonder how a computer can be that cheap.. watching this makes me think that the piece of technology I'm holding could be well worth more than a car
  • @user-in8ht2oo5h
    The explanation of how transistors work was simple and just makes sense. I wish I had seen this back when I was still in high school.
  • @sajinkahnalt
    There are few other things that can demonstrate our mastery of science, engineering, mathematics, and the elements. The degree to which we manipulated the elements and applied our knowledge to get to this point is genuinely astonishing.
  • @fierdawsbugiez
    Its impossible to achieve this kind of technologies without knowledge, passion and company
