- In semiconductor and high-rel electronics, traceability and genealogy are mandatory.
- MES connects the shop floor — lots, lines, test and yield — in real time.
- Genealogy turns a field failure into a precise, contained investigation.
Semiconductor and high-reliability electronics manufacturing operate under the strictest traceability requirements in industry. Every unit must be traceable to its wafer/component lots, the equipment and recipe that processed it, and every test it passed. A Manufacturing Execution System (MES) with genealogy makes this real — and turns quality from a hope into a controlled, provable process.
Why genealogy matters so much
When a failure appears — in test or in the field — genealogy lets you walk backward from the unit to its exact lots, equipment and process conditions, and forward to every other unit that shares them. That means a contained, surgical response instead of a broad, ruinous recall. In safety-critical and semiconductor work, this isn't optional; it's the standard.
What MES with traceability provides
- 1Lot and unit tracking from incoming material to finished goods
- 2Equipment, recipe and shift data captured against each unit/lot
- 3In-line and final test results linked to the unit
- 4Full forward and backward genealogy
- 5Yield analysis by lot, line, equipment and cause
- 6Non-conformance, hold and disposition workflows
In semiconductor and electronics, small yield improvements translate into large profit gains. MES data is the raw material for finding and fixing the causes of yield loss.
Built for your process and standards
Traceability depth and standards vary by product and customer. Wizix builds MES and genealogy around your process steps, equipment and compliance needs — and can add AI to predict yield issues and detect defects from test data before they scale.
Does it provide full forward and backward genealogy?
Yes — from any unit you can trace back to its lots, equipment and process, and forward to all related units.
Can it capture equipment and test data automatically?
Yes, Wizix can integrate equipment and test systems so data is captured against each unit and lot in real time.
