DTCO/STCO Create Path For Faster Yield Ramps
By Laura Peters - 12 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Higher density in planar SoCs and advanced packages, coupled with more complex interactions and dependencies between various components, are permitting systematic defects to escape traditional detection methods. These issues increasingly are not detected until the chips reach high-volume manufacturing, slowing the yield ramp and bumping up costs. To combat these problems, IDMs and systems co... » read more

Laser wavelength selection, a critical determinant of accuracy and data quality, is guided by factors such as resonance, fluorescence, and sample absorption. Ensuring the correct laser wavelength leads to optimal excitation and signal strength, facilitating precise and informative analysis. Luminous evolution In the early days of Raman spectroscopy, light sources like arc lamps and incan... » read more

Strategies For Detecting Sources Of Silent Data Corruption
By Anne Meixner - 12 Mar, 2024 - Comments: 0

Engineering teams are wrestling with how to identify the root causes of silent data corruption (SDC) in a timely and cost-effective way, but the solutions are turning out to be broader and more complex than simply fixing a single defect. This is particularly vexing for data center reliability, accessibility and serviceability (RAS) engineering teams, because even the best tools and methodolo... » read more
