Semiconductor Digital Lessons - STEMploration

This lesson will introduce the history of semiconductors and show what they are, what they do, and why they’re important to us. Students will see how computers work using circuits and logic. Then they will explore where semiconductors are found in our daily lives. Finally, students will take a look at the types of careers available in the semiconductor industry. They can even take a survey that matches their interests to career paths.

In this lesson, students will review the key phases of the back-end assembly process. They will take a closer look at the steps for packaging a semiconductor before they get to explore what semiconductors do in a cell phone. Finally, they will learn about the software used to design the necessary circuits and program semiconductors to perform their functions.
