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 semic

onductor 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 faced—spending 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

In 1961, one engineer could design an entire chip. It had 4 transistors.

Today's devices carry tens of billions and thousands of engineers behind each one.

That shift was the thread running through Women in TechWorks Engineering Intelligently in Cambridge: the future of engineering is less about individual brilliance and more about the teams we build.

In the full blog post:
- Why the future of engineering is increasingly human
- AI as a multiplier, not a replacement
- Why confidence comes after action, not before
- "Representation is infrastructure" and what that actually means
- Why careers don't need to be linear

This isn't just for women.

Our Founder and CEO, John O'Donnell, is speaking at the MIDAS Ireland event on AI in Semiconductors - Opportunities & Challenges in Limerick on September 10th.

He'll share our journey with AI as a data-first company and where we're taking it next... 🚀

The event is part of Semiconductor AI September, a month-long programme from I-C3 and MIDAS Ireland covering AI across chip design, verification and manufacturing.

We're heading to the UK Silicon Carbide Network Conference next week at the University of Warwick, where the UK's SiC ecosystem comes together for two days of technical sessions and networking.

Representing "The Future of SiC Yield Management", yieldHUB: Kevin Robinson, VP Operations.

Swipe to see our customer interview with Clas-SiC Wafer Fab Ltd, based in Lochgelly, Fife, the world's first dedicated open foundry for silicon carbide power semiconductors.

They shared how yieldHUB helped optimize their engineering efficiency.

If you're attending and want to talk about yield data in SiC production, book a consultation with our team!

What if your characterization reports only took an hour or 2 instead of 3 weeks?

That's yieldHUB NPI. It cuts characterisation report generation from days to an hour or two, giving semiconductor companies time to run more tests and regenerate before the release gate, not after it.

Gage R&R qualifies the test environment itself, across every site, not just one. That's where multi-site false fails hide.

"Because of yieldHUB's characterization feature we were able to use the power of the analysis tool to show variation at different voltages and temperatures all in one plot to work out if we could improve things."

Join us in welcoming Angela Teope to our Customer Success team in the Philippines. 🇵🇭

In her own words:
"From being a yieldHUB user to becoming part of the team behind it, a journey that makes me appreciate the product even more. It's more than a platform; it's a powerful solution built to simplify, connect, and drive better results."

Angela brings 12+ years in failure analysis and product engineering.

One more person on our customers' side who truly understands their day-to-day. 🧡

Real-time snapshots from the TechWorks Summit! 📸 🇬🇧

If you're here, your yield solution is standing beside the entrance.

Kevin Robinson (VP Operations, co-chair of FACTYR) and Michael Clarke (Director of Customer Success) are having a blast.

Great conversations on everything from NPI to production, real-time intelligence and AI.

We're here until the end of the day. Drop by to talk yield, talk data, or grab a treat!

Scaling photonic integrated circuits from R&D to volume production requires more than knowing your yield, it requires knowing where yield loss comes from.

See how connected manufacturing data and advanced analytics can help PIC teams improve traceability, accelerate root-cause analysis, and make better production decisions.

A big thank you to Daniel Nenni and the SemiWiki.com team for writing and publishing this piece.

How can parametric analysis help improve efficiency on the test floor?

Watch our Senior Data Scientist, Shravya Shree Gali, share her perspective.

But what do you think is the biggest challenge in making it happen in real time?

Only 3% of women leave tech for caregiving.

For years the industry told itself a different story: women leave because of family.

The data presented at Women in TechWorks Engineering Intelligently Conference in Cambridge says otherwise.

In the full blog post Gillian discusses:
- Where the talent pipeline actually starts leaking
- The retention numbers the industry can't ignore
- The real reasons women leave (not the assumed ones)
- Why confidence comes after action, not before
- What organisations can do about it
