Six ways to improve chip yield rate- before the project starts

Early on in Chip projects, yield is not taken very seriously. The common thinking goes -  anyhow there isn’t much to do as this early point of time. However, there are actually several things you can do even before the Chip design starts, which will translate to clear savings. 1- Know your ...

Low Parasitic HBM ESD Testing

The Human Body Model (HBM) Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) test is the oldest and most widely used ESD test in the electronics industry. The JEDEC HBM test isn’t static; it has been revised to keep up with the rapid changes in the semiconductor industry. The latest revision of the spec addresses failures ...

This interview features Scott Bulbrook, President of DA-Integrated.     Can you describe your company's founding vision and how it has evolved to address the changing landscape of the semiconductor industry?   DA-Integrated was founded to address a gap in the industry concerning the availability of test development services for leading-edge Application Specific Integrated Circuits ...

ASIC Design: From Spec to Chips

An Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) is a specialized integrated circuit crafted for a particular use or purpose. Typically, ASICs are tailored for products targeted for mass production, consolidating necessary electronics onto a single chip.     ASIC stands for “Application Specific Integrated Circuit.”   Despite the substantial initial design cost (known as NRE - ...

Introduction to LoadBoard Design and Production

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 ...

Semiconductor Test Equipment is Powering Innovation

OUTLINE Semiconductor probe card revenues are down by 0.5% in 2022. Reaching US$1.84 billion in 2022, revenue from sockets is on track to reach a record high. Revenue from advanced PCBs grew overall in 2022, driven by sales of DIBs. The Top 3 probe card suppliers are FormFactor, Technoprobe, and MJC Electronics. The Top 3 ...

ASIC design for the IoT

As everybody is trying to figure out what the Internet of Things (IoT) will look like and how connected things will work, I'd like to address a question that many people have: why design your own Integrated Circuit (IC) rather than just use an off-the-shelf processor, write software and be done?   In a nutshell, because ...
