Finding And Applying Domain Expertise In IC Analytics
By Anne Meixner - 12 Apr, 2022 - Comments: 0

Behind PowerPoint slides depicting the data inputs and outputs of a data analytics platform belies the complexity, effort, and expertise that improve fab yield. With the tsunami of data collected for semiconductor devices, fabs need engineers with domain expertise to effectively manage the data and to correctly learn from the data. Naively analyzing a data set can lead to an uninteresting an... » read more

What follows are excerpts of that conversation. Part one ... » 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

Using Machine Learning To Break Down Silos
By Ed Sperling - 13 Nov, 2019 - Comments: 0

Jeff David, vice president of AI solutions at PDF Solutions, talks with Semiconductor Engineering about where machine learning can be applied into semiconductor manufacturing, how it can be used to break down silos around different process steps, how active learning works with human input to tune algorithms, and why it’s important to be able to choose different different algorithms for differ... » read more

Domain Expertise Becoming Essential For Analytics
By Ed Sperling - 12 Mar, 2019 - Comments: 0

Sensors are being added into everything, from end devices to the equipment used to make those sensors, but the data being generated has limited or no value unless it's accompanied by domain expertise. There are two main problems. One is how and where to process the vast amount of data being generated. Chip and system architectures are being revamped to pre-process more of that data closer to... » read more
