INFICON Introduces New TripleGauge for Semiconductor and Industrial Coating Applications.Business Editors SYRACUSE, N.Y & ZURICH, Switzerland--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 10, 2003 Three Technologies in One Compact Gauge Reduce Cost and Complexity for Semiconductor OEMs INFICON Holding AG (SWX Swiss Exchange SWX Swiss Exchange An all-electronic securities exchange formed from the 1995 merger of exchanges in Geneva, Basel, and Zurich. The exchange offers trading in equity securities, investment funds, exchange-traded funds, bonds, Eurobonds, and options. and NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on : IFCN IFCN International Fitness Club Network IFCN Interfacility Flow Control Network ), a leading manufacturer of vacuum instrumentation and advanced process control software for the semiconductor and related industries, will introduce the TripleGauge(TM) Bayard-Alpert Pirani Capacitance Diaphragm Gauge at SEMICON SEMICON Semiconductors Equipment and Material International Conference West 2003, San Francisco San Francisco (săn frănsĭs`kō), city (1990 pop. 723,959), coextensive with San Francisco co., W Calif., on the tip of a peninsula between the Pacific Ocean and San Francisco Bay, which are connected by the strait known as the Golden . The INFICON TripleGauge combines the advantages of three sensor technologies in a single, economical package, enabling semiconductor OEMs to measure process and base pressures from 3.75 x 10-10 to 1125 Torr. The new gauge is designed to take the place of to be substituted for. - Berkeley. See also: Place three stand-alone gauges (hot ion, convection-enhanced Pirani, and a vacuum switch). This significantly reduces the complexity of installation, set-up and vacuum measurement on the semiconductor tool for processing and transfer chambers. "Chipmakers are demanding that semiconductor OEMs produce lower cost and smaller footprint systems, particularly for new 300mm wafer processing," said James Brissenden, president and chief executive officer. "With this expansion of our technology-proven Combination Vacuum Gauge line, OEMs can take greater advantage of the price and performance rewards of INFICON gauges on more chambers of their production tools." INFICON will exhibit its products and technologies at SEMICON West from July 14 through July 16. Attendees can view the new TripleGauge at the INFICON booth, #926, located in the South Hall of the Moscone Center.
