Fastnet-technologies project
Tools and products must be adapted to the technology challenges but more and more methodology and knowledge are key to the results.
Standard time execution for failure analysis of electronics devices is few days for the physical analysis but fault isolation could take more time counted in weeks.
Strategy and concept
Fastnet technologies strategy is based on the integrated diagnosis and launch of EDA tools used in the design with aim to provide tools for fast failure analysis.
Traditional failure analysis (FA) process proceeds of different steps. All these steps are requiring having inside lab all product navigation and more and more adding all capability of diagnosis tool available for ATPG, memory BISTand now analog product .
- Step 1 : Failure mode identification.
- Step 2 : Fault isolation.
- Step 3 : Physical analysis.
- Step 4 : Root cause determination.
- Step 5 : Corrective action.
Analysis cycle time is on average several weeks for the isolation of the failure, a few days for the physical analysis of the defective elmentary device.
Fastnet Technologies is providing advance automated flow to make diagnosis faster and accurate.
Software is enabling failure analysis engineers to perform fault isolation diagnosis themselves with opportunities to improve localization accuracy and drastic lower failure analysis cycle time and better success rate.
