With its own Engineering and Manufacturing facility and expertise, Gold Technologies can design and manufacture what you need in semiconductor testing – from spring probe pogo pins to connectors to test sockets/contactors – from prototype, validation, characterization to high volume ATE and Burn In.
LoadBoard (LB) is a mandatory, custom made PCB, that acts as a mechanical and electrical interface between the tester (ATE) and the device under test (DUT). LoadBoard has well-defined physical dimensions and it must fit perfectly into the tester.
It is one piece of the entire ASIC Test Solution and it ...
HTOL (High Temperature Operating Life) testing is a stress test defined by JEDEC to define the reliability of IC products, and is an essential part of ASIC qualification tests. This post provides a high-level overview of HTOL test. Obviously, you should refer to the standard if you plan to perform ...
For decades, EDA industry has been working out options to improve their offerings and ensure silicon success for the semiconductor industry. A few decades back, while the EDA giants were unknown, design automation was exercised individually in every organization developing a product. Gradually these tools moved out of the design ...
I am sick and tired to hear the same buzzwords a zillion times every single day. IoT, Cognitive Computing, Cloud Computing, Fog Computing, Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, Smart-whatever (from objects to cities and pretty soon toilet paper, I'm afraid). What really makes me sick is that these buzzwords are used, ...
Introduction to Integrated Circuit Packaging
Integrated circuit packaging technologies have evolved throughout the years to the point where hundreds of IC package types are available today.
Most applications will require the more general, single-element packaging for integrated circuits and the other components such as resistors, capacitators, antenna etc. However, as the semiconductor ...
