Product Engineering Tools
| Larry: | A good question. A product engineer is the intermediary between design and manufacturing. The product engineer usually guides the first silicon through manufacturing, using EDA tools.
Diagnostic tests are run if no chips work on the wafer, or not in the package. The product engineer performs these tests to find the source of chip failures. The source may be the design, the tests, or the process. Various isolation tests and probe tools help with the diagnostic effort. Microscopic analysis with an electron beam microscope may be used. Finding and fixing errors at this phase can be a long, laborious, and costly procedure. Design, test, or process fixes are then made. All the verification and checking tools are rerun, ... |
