| - | Wish list: | ||
| - | ^ Item ^ Needed/ | ||
| - | | Sponsor a chip image! | 20-100 | Moar data! | Non-commercial only, you provide IC. Usually top metal as delayering requires some to a lot more work | | ||
| - | | Second CNC microscope operational | 350 | Increased throughput | Need BH2-HCL, LH50A to complete second BH2-UMA | | ||
| - | | Real SSL cert | 200/year | Makes your browser happy | Tried StartSSL but they didn't get back to me | | ||
| - | | Mitutoyo Plan Apo 50x objective | 800? | Better images, relieves imaging constraints | Assuming one pops up on eBay. Olympus 50x ULWD clearance issues | | ||
| - | | Confocal microscope | 2,000 | Much easier automated polygon capture | Typical industrial auction price | | ||
| - | | Better lapping machine | 2,000 | Faster/ | ||
| - | | Gold sponsor | 1000 | Because you love me? Selfish advertising? | ||
| - | |||
| - | The server isn't free, the equipment isn't, and my time is limited. | ||
| - | |||
| - | If you have some interesting chips I'd probably take them to image as well. Be warned though I have quite a stockpile (ie backlog) of chips already but I'd like to help others out to spread interest. | ||

| - | ====== Sponsoring a chip ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Consumables used for every chip: | ||
| - | * Acid (typically H2SO4 or WFNA) | ||
| - | * Filtered canned air | ||
| - | * Acetone | ||
| - | * IPA | ||
| - | * Deionized water | ||
| - | * Paper towels | ||
| - | * Gloves | ||
| - | * Electricty | ||
| - | * Stuff ocassionally breaks! (eg glassware) | ||
| - | |||
| - | None of these are bad by itself but add up. The equipment also ain't cheap and would love it if someone could help me offset the costs | ||
| - | |||
| - | Delayering ranges from dangerous to very time consuming. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ====== Second microscope ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Have: | ||
| - | * Heavy duty motorized XY stage w/ rotary encoders + glass linear encoders + motor controllers | ||
| - | * Spare high quality microscope base for XY stage | ||
| - | * Most of a BH2-UMA | ||
| - | * Unused NeoSPlan objectives | ||
| - | * Extra STM32 to turn into indexer | ||
| - | |||
| - | Need: | ||
| - | * BH2-UMA missing BH2-HCL (~$50) + BH2-LH50A (~$150) | ||
| - | * A lower quality illuminator would discourage its use | ||
| - | * A table in the garage ($50? free on craigslist? | ||
| - | * Leveling mechanism: may be able to scrounge from existing stockpile but more likely $150 | ||
