Amkor Technology, Inc., a leading provider of semiconductor packaging and test services, today announced that multiple factories have passed certification audits for IATF-16949:2016, a key certification required for manufacturers who supply products to the automotive market. IATF-16949:2016 replaces and supersedes the older ISO/TS-16949 standard.
For ASIC or IC, there are recommended environmental conditions for their storage which allows them to perform at proper functionally. However, it is well known that storage may not always be close to the recommended standard. This is where the high temperature storage life testing (HTSL reliability testing) comes into
Read MoreThe Highly Accelerated Stress Test (HAST testing) involves the effects of humidity and temperature on an IC or ASIC. The HAST test is designed to test the package of the ASIC under extreme humidity and temperature conditions. Devices that pass such HAST tests will be able to withstand the normal

Although superficially similar to the HBM, the CDM is different and
Read MoreIn building integrated circuits (ICs) or ASICs, one area of concern is how they are protected from outside electrical sources. While most systems are geared towards power overloads, one source that may cause considerable damage is the electro-static discharge (ESD) that comes from the human body. To help test for
