As silicon photonics costs come down, the technology is being worked into new applications, from connectivity to AI. But full commercial production requires testing those photonic circuits before ...

Electrical safety testing has been around for almost a century, and safety agencies have been testing and certifying products for almost as long. Electrical and electronic products have changed ...

Environmental and qualification testing play a critical role in this process. As device geometries shrink and packaging technologies become more complex, environmental stress testing provides a ...

Most of the electrical power distribution infrastructure is static, and in many facilities, the mindset for electrical equipment and devices is “set it, and forget it.” However, much of the existing ...

Wire bonding is widely used in electronic devices, the semiconductor industry, and microelectronics. It enables interconnections between the die and other electronic components in an integrated ...

Some of the most challenging leakage-current-testing requirements are those for patient-monitoring devices—both invasive and noninvasive. Such testing can be time-consuming and expensive, so it is ...

Early results of using device-aware testing on alternative memories show expanded test coverage, but this is just the start. Once the semiconductor industry realized that it was suffering from device ...
