Aviza Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:AVZA), a supplier of advanced
semiconductor capital equipment and process technologies for the
global semiconductor industry and related markets, today announced
multiple orders for its 200 mm and 300 mm Omega fxP etch systems
and deep silicon (DSi) etch modules to three leading semiconductor
manufacturers in Europe. The chipmakers will use the Omega DSi etch
systems to manufacture IC devices for consumer, automotive and
related end market applications. The selection of an Omega fxP DSi
etch system by one of the European customers was a result of an
extensive competitive evaluation program. The rigorous evaluation
process focused on Aviza�s ability to meet the customer�s criteria
in four primary categories including, technology, production
worthiness, cost and company strategy. After extensive marathon
runs and testing, the data showed that Aviza�s Omega fxP DSi system
predominantly excelled in the areas of productivity and cost of
ownership (CoO) advantages, which were the clear differentiators
against the competition. The DSi etch system is currently installed
at the company�s facility, where it is being used for high aspect
ratio DSi etching to manufacture IC devices for automotive
applications. This customer has since placed a follow-on order for
the same system configuration, which will be used for yet another
application. Additionally, Aviza has shipped further DSi etch
modules to two other key European customers to support increased
capacity for the manufacture of MEMS-based devices for automotive
and consumer markets. Aviza continues to demonstrate world-class
levels of expertise with its Omega fxP DSi system delivering high
uptimes, reliability and process stability for high volume MEMS
production. Aviza is well positioned to support customers� needs,
as they scale their future MEMS manufacturing capacity. �As a
manufacturing partner and a top tier supplier for DSi etch
applications, we are dedicated to providing our customers with
state-of-the-art process technologies on cost-effective systems
coupled with a global service and support network in order to
deliver the highest level of customer satisfaction,� said Kevin
Crofton, Senior Vice President, Product Business Units of Aviza
Technology, Inc. �These most recent orders validate Aviza�s
position as a technology and market leader in DSi etch for high
volume manufacturing.� About Omega fxP Omega fxP is a cluster
system designed for high volume production that offers up to six
process modules, combined with wafer alignment, cool-down and two
vacuum cassette stations. The system provides high throughput for
the high volume user or the option to �mix and match� different
plasma sources so that advanced sequential etching processes can be
addressed. Key applications for Omega include highly controlled Si
trench etch plus metal and oxide etch for power devices, deep
silicon etch and bulk silicon removal for MEMS and Wafer Level
Packaging. Safe Harbor This press release contains forward-looking
