Elk Grove Village, IL July 21, 2009 -- Sonoscan Inc., has announced that its SonoLab® division is offering a new service that provides greatly enhanced acoustic microscope imaging of stacked die assemblies.
The new service, available immediately, uses Sonoscan’s proprietary software developed over the last two (2) years. The new software images die stacks with unprecedented accuracy for internal defect analysis.
Most significantly, it can assign a defect or other feature to a specific layer within the stack, a capability that had been limited due to the thinness and number of layers, until now!
“The merging of the new software with Sonoscan’s C-SAM® hardware means that we can now effectively and consistently image the multiple layers in stacked die configurations,” said SonoLab® Manager Ray Thomas. “In the hands of our experienced applications engineers, this software provides accurate and reliable analyses of stacked die.”
“IC designers, IC packaging engineers, semiconductor failure analysis labs, and semiconductor manufacturing engineers are among those who will benefit from this new analytical service,” he added.
More information is available from SonoLab® Manager Ray Thomas.
