Process, Package and Product Qualification
Process qualification verifies that the process is stable and that devices behave as stated and will do so without drift for a pre-determined period of time. For semiconductors, it is normally the responsibility of the Fab; for board assembly, the electronic manufacturer. If you need independent third-party analysis, MuAnalysis can help. Package qualification ensures that the package will protect the die from harm, since microelectronic or photonic devices are small, fragile and difficult to access. Package qualification looks at the environment, not the application. Product qualification verifies the compatibility of the die and package and determines any handling restriction in the final application. Jedec, Telcordia or MIL standards apply for components and modules. For finished board assemblies, Muanalysis offers MAJIC. MuAnalysis offers complete product and package qualification for a variety of technologies including Silicon components i.e. ASIC, CMOS, Bipolar, BiCMOS GaAs Compound semiconductors Hybrids Modules Boards Discretes
