What we engineer in the IC fab

Cleanroom Design & Construction

ISO Class 1-8 cleanrooms with laminar flow, fan filter units (FFU), air showers, pass-throughs, gowning areas, and ESD-safe flooring.

Equipment Hook-up

Process tool connections: gas, chemical, UPW, exhaust, electrical, and data. Valve manifold boxes (VMB) and interface units (VMB/IU) for all tools.

Ultrapure Water (UPW)

UPW generation: pretreatment, reverse osmosis, ion exchange, membrane degas, and final polishing to 18.2 MOhm-cm resistivity with TOC < 1 ppb.

Chemical & Gas Delivery

Facility Monitoring (FMCS)

Real-time cleanroom monitoring: particle count, temperature, humidity, pressure differential, utility status, and alarm management with SCADA integration.

What cleanroom classes can MCLANTIS build?
MCLANTIS designs and builds cleanrooms from ISO Class 8 (100,000) down to ISO Class 1 (1), with laminar flow, FFU arrays, air showers, and gowning areas.
How is ultrapure water quality maintained?
UPW systems use multi-stage pretreatment, reverse osmosis, ion exchange, membrane degas, and UV oxidation. Resistivity is monitored continuously at 18.2 MOhm-cm.
What safety systems are included for chemical/gas handling?
All chemical and gas systems include leak detection, automatic shutoff valves, exhaust ventilation, gas monitoring, and emergency response systems compliant with SEMI S2 standards.
How long does a typical IC fab project take?
A full IC fab facility ranges from 24 to 52 weeks depending on size and cleanroom class. Smaller retrofits can be completed in 12-16 weeks with minimal production disruption.
