Description

Reference product: transistor, auxilliaries and energy use [kg]
Location: GLO - Global
This dataset represents the average production efforts of 1 kg of transistors over all types of transistors. There is no distinction between the different types of transisitors produced. Data for auxillaries, energy, emissions and waste are taken from a dataset out of an international LCI database. Infrastructure efforts are based on own assumptions. As the raw material input is taken into account in the respective transistor datasets this dataset here has no input of raw materials.
[This dataset has been generated using the system model "Allocation, cut-off by classification". A system model describes how activity datasets are linked to form product systems. The allocation cut-off system model subdivides multi-product activities by allocation, based on a physical properties, economic, mass or other properties. By-products of waste treatment processes are cut-off, as are all by-products classified as recyclable. Markets in this model include all activities in proportion to their current production volume.
Version 3 of the ecoinvent database offers three system models to choose from. For more information, please visit: https://www.ecoinvent.org/database/system-models-in-ecoinvent-3/system-…)]

Technology

average production technology comprising Si-crystal die bonding; wire bonding; encapsulation; plating; triming; forming and marking.
Besides the use of millions of individual or discrete transistors, the vast majority of transistors are fabricated into integrated circuits today together with diodes, resistors, capacitors and other electronic components in order to establish a complete electronic circuit.
