Big Changes In Optical Inspection
By Ed Sperling - 16 Oct, 2024 - Comments: 0

Optical inspection always has been the workhorse technology for finding defects in chips. It's fast, cost-efficient, and generally reliable enough for most chips. But as logic scales into the angstrom range, and as systems become collections of chiplets, optical inspection needs to be combined with other types of inspection such as X-ray and acoustic. Kyle Vander Schaaf, application engineer at... » read more

Complex Heterogeneous Integration Drives Innovation In Semiconductor Test
By Jeorge Hurtarte - 15 Oct, 2024 - Comments: 0

Heterogeneous integration is driving innovation in the semiconductor industry, but it also introduces more complexity in chip design, which translates to more intricate test requirements. The automated test equipment (ATE) industry is responding, developing and utilizing more sophisticated test equipment capable of handling the diverse functionalities and interfaces needed to test heterogeneous... » read more

Working With Chiplets
By Ed Sperling - 02 Oct, 2024 - Comments: 0

The usual method of migrating to the next process node to cram more features onto a piece of silicon no longer works. It's too expensive, and too limited for most applications. The path forward is now heterogeneous chiplets targeted at specific markets, and while logic will continue to scale, other features are being separated out into chiplets developed using different process technologies. Th... » read more

Data Routing In Heterogeneous Chip Designs
By Ed Sperling - 30 Sep, 2024 - Comments: 0

Ensuring data gets to where it's supposed to go at exactly the right time is a growing challenge for design engineers and architects developing heterogeneous systems. There is more data moving around these chips with dozens of targets, which makes routing signals much more complicated. Ronen Perets, senior product marketing manager at Cadence Design Systems, talks about some of the new problems... » read more

Barriers To Chiplet Sockets
By Brian Bailey - 30 Sep, 2024 - Comments: 0

Experts At The Table: Demand for chiplets is growing, but debate continues about whether standards and general-purpose chiplets will kick-start the commercialization boom, or whether success will come through customization of those chiplets. Semiconductor Engineeering sat down to discuss these and other related issues with Elad Alon, CEO of Blue Cheetah; Mark Kuemerle, vice president of technol... » read more
