SPEAKING: Microchip Production
16. Work in pairs or in buzz-groups. With your partner(s), discuss possible stages and techniques of
microchip production. Make sure you mention: · the overall plan (scheme, model, instruction); · microchip production features;
· the materials and equipment necessary; · microchip application areas.
After you have discussed your ideas read the supplementary reading section text Manufacturing the Microchip and compare the process with your ideas. Did you make the same steps? Were your actions different? In what way and why? Make a presentation depicting the results of your exploration.
