Yieldhub
Enterprise Yield Management Platform for Semiconductor & Integrated Photonics | Enabling Real-Time & Smart Manufacturing.
Helping manufacturers improve yield, reduce test costs, accelerate NPI and increase engineering & manufacturing efficiency. ABOUT
yieldHUB is a global Enterprise Yield Management Platform helping semiconductor and integrated photonics manufacturers improve yield, reduce test costs, accelerate New Product Introduction (NPI), and enable Real-Time & Smart Manufacturing. Our platform transforms semiconductor test, manufacturing, quality and reliability data into trusted insights that help engineering and operations teams make faster decisions, identify root causes sooner and improve manufacturing performance. By unifying fragmented data into a single governed platform, yieldHUB increases engineering productivity, improves product quality and reliability, unlocks hidden manufacturing capacity and supports the journey from NPI through to high-volume manufacturing. Trusted by leading fabless semiconductor companies, IDMs, foundries, OSATs and integrated photonics manufacturers worldwide, yieldHUB has been helping manufacturers optimize yield and manufacturing operations for over 21 years. OUR STORY
Founded in 2005 by engineer John O'Donnell, yieldHUB was created to solve a problem every semiconductor engineer facedโspending too much time preparing data instead of solving manufacturing challenges. Today, yieldHUB is a globally trusted platform with customers and employees across Europe, North America and Asia, supporting some of the world's leading semiconductor and photonics manufacturers. OUR MISSION
This page shares the latest news, insights and innovations from yieldHUB and the wider semiconductor industry. We aim to create a community where engineers, manufacturing leaders and technology professionals can learn, share knowledge and stay informed. COMMUNITY GUIDELINES

6 signs you need to talk to our team at ITC 2026 ๐
1๏ธโฃ ๐๏ธ Your engineers spend more time sorting data dumps than solving problems
2๏ธโฃ ๐ Your teams work across sites, countries, languages and time zones
3๏ธโฃ ๐ข Large data logs are slowing your servers down
4๏ธโฃ ๐โ๏ธ You need long-term data archiving for automotive or aviation customers
5๏ธโฃ โณ Characterization or Gage R&R takes weeks instead of hours
6๏ธโฃ ๐จ You need alerts when parametrics go off track
Sound familiar? Carl S. Moore, our Yield Management Specialist, will be at ITC 2026 and has been there himself as his team once spent two weeks on a Gage R&R analysis. With a yield management system, it took a few hours! ๐ ๐
Come chat with Carl about how yieldHUB can do the same for you. ๐ค

Thinking of building your own yield management system? ๐ ๏ธ Do the math first. ๐
Building your own:
๐ธ 5 people for six months = maybe $300,000
๐ง Then $100K+ a year for debug and support
๐ Volumes double, but the design only handles half a terabyte
๐ Your script writer retires, leaving undocumented scripts
๐ Users move offshore, with no support in their time zone
With yieldHUB, 21 years in production:
โก Set up within days to a couple of weeks
๐๏ธ Scales to terabytes
๐ Expert support across continents
๐งฉ New formats to you aren't new to us
Weighing up build vs buy? Meet John O'Donnell and Gillian O'Donnell at SEMICON West, October 13-15, San Francisco. ๐๐บ๐ธ

Happy International Day! ๐โจ
Today weโre spotlighting Shravya, Senior Data Scientist at yieldHUB ๐ฉโ๐ป
Shravya tackles AI's real bottleneck: messy data. Her expertise in statistics, engineering and machine learning turns it into the truth engineers need, delivering complete clarity on yield.
Her advice to women entering AI?
โDonโt try to be perfect, put your ideas forward. If youโre wrong, youโve learned something. If youโre right, youโve gained confidence.โ
Thank you, Shravya, for leading the way ๐

Silicon works, orders are in and the pressure lands on test and product engineering.
Four things to get right before the ramp starts so you can sleep better when volume hits:
1) Make sure you have that gage R&R done
2) Make sure your test facility follows an agreed re-screen plan
3) Make sure you have a modern & cost-effective yield management system in place
4) Make sure you have a responsive foundry willing to learn from the back-end performance

Could you answer these for your top volume product in the next few minutes?
A 93% to 96% yield improvement on 100 wafers a month at $5,000 a wafer is $180,000 a year, on one product.
Eight questions your yield system should answer in minutes:
1. What is the yield up to today and what is the trend over the quarter?
2. What are the highest failing bins and their trends?
3. What are the highest failing tests and their trends?
4. What impact is Fab having on the wafer sort and final test yields?
5. Are the parameters being tested sensitive to the test software or hardware?
6. Is the yield always uniform across the wafer? If not, why not?
7. What percentage of good units are failed incorrectly because sites arenโt yielding consistently?
8. Who is alerted if there are yield, site, bin or parametric issues in production and when and for what were the last alerts sent out?

We are really looking forward to the 2026 WISH Conference hosted by the Global Semiconductor Alliance (GSA) on November 10th in Santa Clara, California! ๐โจ
We first started going in 2023 and it is very inspirational! ๐งก
WISH is the premier technical forum celebrating innovation, technical achievements and leadership by women in the semiconductor industry, bringing together around 1,000 industry professionals, engineers, and executives.
But first, we're at SEMICON West, October 13-15! Come say hi at the Irish Pavillion and hopefully we'll see some familiar faces again at WISH! ๐ค

yieldHUB is heading to PSECE & ASEF 2026 in Manila! ๐๐ต๐ญ
๐ Find us at Booth 199, SMX Convention Center Manila, October 26-28.
Come see how we can turn your semiconductor test data into real financial impact. Even a 1% yield gain can be worth millions, and higher tester utilization means more output from the equipment you already have.
๐ค Catch our VP of Engineering, Jerome Auza, live on stage:
"yieldHUB Live: Increasing First Pass Yield, Quality and Reducing Retest"

Test data arrives from multiple ATE platforms, test houses and foundries, each in its own format.
Engineers spend weeks stitching it together.
An operator mistypes a zero as an o in a Lot_Id field, and that lot stops grouping with the others. The analysis still runs. It looks confident. It's wrong.
That is what yield management is for: centralize, cleanse, correlate, report.
Our YMS platform simplifies and makes that complex process 90% faster.
๐ Our yield management team returns to SEMICON West this year, Team Ireland stand, booth 6254 ๐ฎ๐ช Pictures below from previous years ๐ธ
We're also exhibiting at ITC the same week @ Booth 602!
