So far I have only found this 63 MB file from intel's website, which is also on youtube with a dismal quality.

If you know about any other video, let me know, the highest quality, the better.

Thanks.

I don't know where video might be off the top of my head, and I'm at work so I can't search for video (not that they won't let me, but I am busy at the moment...)

But remember that there are more types of IC's being made than just microprocessors, so there are a lot more companies who might have the type of video you are looking for online.

TI, Micron, IBM, National Semiconductor, TSMC, UMC are just a few companies who probably have their own semiconductor fabs (and might have made videos to show them off) that I can think of off the top of my head, and there are tons more.

Thanks for your help, following your advice I found this one from IBM regarding the Wii PowerPC chip. Nice one.

This episode of How It’s Made shows an IBM microprocessor being wired to a package:

Thanks to both of you. That music video is rather nice.

You might also want to try searching for a video at the Arrow Electronics web site. They are one of the largest electronics distribution companies and probably serve every one of the companies mentioned in this thread.
