Manufacturing Optimization With Digital Thread
By Michael Schuldenfrei - 10 Mar, 2020 - Comments: 0

Data is everywhere, and if you know what to do with it, can be tremendously valuable. Huge volumes of data are collected in manufacturing industries across the supply chain, with the help of technologies such as IoT platforms, sensors, and edge devices. However, data is only as good as the value extracted from it, and getting the most out of data is challenging. Because information is often con... » read more

Making 3D Structures And Packages More Reliable
By Ed Sperling - 14 Jan, 2020 - Comments: 0

The move to smaller vertical structures and complex packaging schemes is straining existing testing approaches, particularly in heterogeneous combinations on a single chip and in multi-die packages. The complexity of these devices has exploded with the slowdown in scaling, as chipmakers turn to architectural solutions and new transistor structures rather than just relying on shrinking featur... » read more

Reducing Automotive Failure Rates With QPaaS
By Kiki (Yitzhak) Ohayan - 10 Dec, 2019 - Comments: 0

It’s become an industry cliché to dub modern cars “computers on wheels” – and with 90 percent of automotive innovation now focused on electronics and software, it’s a cliché that happens to be true, and it brings with it the complications that all electronics bring. The sheer number of electronics-driven features – advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS), telematics, navigati... » read more

Making Random Variation Less Random
By Ed Sperling - 21 Oct, 2019 - Comments: 0

The economics for random variation are changing, particularly at advanced nodes and in complex packaging schemes. Random variation always will exist in semiconductor manufacturing processes, but much of what is called random has a traceable root cause. The reason it is classified as random is that it is expensive to track down all of the various quirks in a complex manufacturing process or i... » read more

Reducing Costly Flaws In Heterogeneous Designs
By Ed Sperling - 08 Oct, 2019 - Comments: 0

The cost of defects is rising as chipmakers begin adding multiple chips into a package, or multiple processor cores and memories on the same die. Put simply, one bad wire can spoil an entire system. Two main issues need to be solved to reduce the number of defects. The first is identifying the actual defect, which becomes more difficult as chips grow larger and more complex, and whenever chi... » read more

From Womb To Tomb: A Lifetime Of Chip Data In A Common Language
By Noam Brousard - 08 Oct, 2019 - Comments: 0

Every integrated circuit (IC) has a lifetime of stories to tell. From design through the end of a chip’s life, it can let us know what’s happening all along the way, providing we give it a voice and the language to do so. But until we can gain access to this data, the lives of these ICs remain secret. In-chip monitoring opens up those secrets. It helps to optimize performance, and it is esp... » read more
