Example Filled Template

Yield Improvement Plan - MEMS Sensor Final Test

Yield Baseline

Current final test yield is 89.4 percent against 94.0 percent entitlement over the last 20 lots.

Loss Pareto

Loss Bin Share Suspected Area
Offset trim fail 38% Probe calibration
Noise fail 21% Cap attach voids

Experiments

Run split lot with revised probe clean frequency and compare offset trim recovery across 6 wafers.

Action Plan

Action Owner Due
Increase probe clean to every 2 wafers Test Eng 2026-05-08
Add void x-ray sample at cap attach Assembly QE 2026-05-10

Monitoring

Review lot yield and bin pareto daily until 10 consecutive lots exceed 93 percent.
