Abstract
This paper examines three applications of automation technology in the manufacture of Infrared Focal Plane arrays. Areas to be examined ar wafer handling during array fabrication up through dicing, automation ofLiquid Phase Epitaxy, and automation of bump bonding. The collection of factory data and its use in control of the manufacturing process will also be discussed. Specifics related to the production of Z-module architecture will be emphasized.
