With the dawn of chiplet integration, advanced chip manufacturing and advanced packaging technologies are more complex than ever. Dies are being integrated from different wafers, and yield management is tricky. It requires a combination of both electrical test and optical measurement – or metrology. Even more, it requires hybrid metrology using multi-sensor technology. In this […]
