Semiconductor Failure Analysis: The Complete Guide to IC Failure Analysis

Semiconductor devices can fail for many reasons: manufacturing defects, electrical overstress, electrostatic discharge, contamination, packaging problems, excessive temperature, mechanical stress, aging or defects introduced during assembly.   Finding the actual cause of an IC failure, however, is rarely as simple as looking at the damaged device.   Semiconductor failure analysis (FA) is the systematic ...

IC Failure Analysis Techniques: A Complete Guide

When an integrated circuit fails, identifying the damaged component is only part of the challenge. Engineers must determine where the failure occurred, what physical or electrical mechanism caused it, and ultimately why it happened. This requires a combination of specialized IC failure analysis techniques. Some techniques detect electrical abnormalities without physically altering ...

BCD, CMOS, FinFET, SOI, GaN & SiC Technologies Explained

Introduction to Semiconductor Semiconductors have a small energy gap between the conduction and valance bands, and their conductivity is between insulators and conductors. At absolute zero temperature, semiconductor materials are pure insulators and gradually increase with temperature. Temperature and doping are the two mechanisms to manage the conductivity of semiconductors. Doping ...

Introduction to Silicon-Germanium (SiGe) Technology

Overview of Silicon-Germanium (SiGe) Technology and Historical Development   Shockley's early transistor game most likely inspired the notion of fusing silicon (Si) and germanium (Ge) to create an alloy for use in transistor engineering. However, this concept has just become a reality in the last 15 years due to the challenges associated ...

The Ultimate Guide to: BiCMOS

The semiconductor industry went through several stages of evolution, beginning with the Metal Oxide Semiconductor (MOS) Field-Effect Transistor (FET) which was first proposed by Lilienfeld and Heil in the 1930s, moving on to bipolar in the 1950s and N-channel metal-oxide semiconductor (NMOS) in 1970s, and ultimately becoming the standard in ...

Electrical Failure Analysis (EFA) of Integrated Circuits

When an integrated circuit fails, one of the first questions is: How is the device failing electrically?   A chip may exhibit excessive leakage current, a short circuit, an open connection, abnormal supply current, a parametric shift or a complete functional failure. Before engineers physically cut into the device, they usually want to ...
