Why isolated flows negatively impact design schedule and PPA. Benefits of unified DFT, synthesis, and physical design flows. Physical implementation optimization methods for test compression and scan ...

Improved testability, coupled with more tests at more insertion points, are emerging as key strategies for creating reliable, heterogeneous 2.5D and 3D designs with sufficient yield. “With chiplets, ...

Historically, testability is an afterthought in the design process. But heightening complexity of chip designs, and especially SoCs, forces testability (and manufacturability) to take a more central ...

In today’s highly competitive semiconductor industry, chip-design companies strive for competitive advantages by optimizing designs for PPA (Power, Performance, Area). Along with the functional logic, ...

Today's systematic and more subtle random defects are not only decreasing yields, but are also increasing the number of test escapes, or defective parts per million (DPPM) shipped out. One of the ...

Meridian DFT (Design For Test) from Real Intent delivers multimode design-for-test (DFT) static sign-off to ensure maximum scan coverage and silicon s ...

I’ve had a fairly varied early part of my career in the semiconductors business: a series of events caused me to jump disciplines a little bit, and after one such event, I landed in the test ...

TOKYO, May 08, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Leading semiconductor test equipment supplier Advantest Corporation (TSE: 6857) today unveiled SiConic Test Engineering (TE), the newest addition to the SiConic ...
