Presentation Title:
Paradigm Shift in Testability and Diagnosis as Industry Moves to Heterogenous Product Integration

We are moving into the era of heterogenous product integration to keep extending Moore’s Law. Industry is moving at rapid pace to build chips using various advance packaging technology by combining chiplets from different process node and technology. Heterogenous integration have significant impact on production test, both at wafer level and at final test. Debug and fault isolation is a key aspect when come to test. Heterogenous integration has created multiple challenges in physical debug, fault isolation and dealing with field returns. A known good die (KGD) does not mean all shipped bare die will pass at package and system. The final package integration will need to deliver high quality and high yield packaged products.

This keynote provides an overview of test and debug complexity and its economics brought about by heterogenous integration and what are the existing best-known method to build a manufacturable product with chiplets. We will need a high degree of innovation and collaboration among the industry to address all these challenges.
