Deploy this template when baseline yield falls below entitlement or customer escalations require root cause analysis.
This template produces a data-driven action plan linking defect pareto analysis to testable process hypotheses.
Most yield plans fail by chasing symptoms without validating root cause mechanisms through controlled experiments.

| Loss Bin | Share | Suspected Area |
|---|---|---|
| Offset trim fail | 38% | Probe calibration |
| Noise fail | 21% | Cap attach voids |
Run split lot with revised probe clean frequency and compare offset trim recovery across 6 wafers.
| 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 |
Review lot yield and bin pareto daily until 10 consecutive lots exceed 93 percent.
