To meet these requirements and maintain cost effectiveness many IC companies are using hybrid technologies, in chiplet form,  co-packaged to preserve the density of monolithic solutions and ease system design. Traditionally, monolithic devices have been tested with a final test at package to weed out bad components. Many times, probe is used to catch failures and avoid wasting money on good packages assembled with bad parts. With the emergence of chiplets, there is an added pressure on probe to establish \u201cknown good die\u201d prior to packaging to avoid wasting money on good packaging and good chiplets assembled with one bad chiplet. Elevate believes a new paradigm in probe test must emerge to handle the added requirements of probing chiplets and is leading the way with innovative solutions.<\/p><p><\/p><\/details>\n<a href=\"\/premium\/welcome\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-129\" title=\"Click here to subscribe to PREMIUM content\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/premium-video-non-subscriber.png\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.testconx.org\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/premium-video-non-subscriber.png 480w, https:\/\/www.testconx.org\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/premium-video-non-subscriber-300x168.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div><a href=\"\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/TestConX2024s7p2Getz_9212.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-70\" alt=\"PDF-Icon 150x139\" src=\"\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/PDF-Icon-150x139.png\" width=\"75\" height=\"70\" \/><\/a>&nbsp;<a href=\"\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/TestConX2024s7p2Getz_9212.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" \/>Presentation Download<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"presentation\">\n<div class=\"presentationTitle\">\n&ldquo;High Performance Compute Test Trends in The Chiplet Era&rdquo; \n<\/div>\n<div class=\"authorList\">\n   <div class=\"author\">\n      <div class=\"authorName\">\nBob Bartlett\n      <\/div>\n\t    <div class=\"authorCompany\">\nAdvantest Corporation\n\t    <\/div>\n   <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<details class=\"summaryDetail\">\n\t<summary class=\"summaryLine\">Abstract (English)<\/summary>\n<p>The paper will discuss the bandwidth requirements for workload data as well as the zero overhead datalogging volumes required for yield learning as we look at data flows for several mobile and HPC class devices.

These include investigating corner cases like the process-voltage-temperature (PVT) in the validation as well as in the production environments (deployment in compute servers). The challenges are further exacerbated since the sockets used in the production environment are different from the ones used in the validation environment. The conventional approach to active thermal control using thermoelectric coolers (TECs) and heat exchangers do not provide sufficient coverage for thermoregulation in one or more zones of the package due to package topologies. Furthermore, It is extremely difficult to design and implement a cost-effective system that has multi-zone sensing and temperature-controlled feedback to control the temperature in each zone of the package. Most thermal control unit (TCU) deployments need compressed air to activate the thermal head interfacing with the socketed processor, a controller unit with a software interface and a chiller to support the heat exchanger, all of which require periodic maintenance and monitoring. As such deploying TCUs in the production and validation environments poses insurmountable challenges.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\nWe propose an alternate approach using a heat exchanger with isolated zones matching the disaggregation in the chiplets-based package and connected to one or more chillers. By studying the thermal performance of each zone, the heat exchanger design is optimized to keep the thermal gradients between the zones in the package to a minimum. An isothermal boundary condition is realized by setting temperature offsets in the chillers and monitoring its stability for the duration of characterization. With adequate provisioning of heat removal in the chillers, it was found that maintaining an isothermal boundary condition is indeed feasible. This approach was realized in designing a multizone cooling\/heating lid which mounts in both validation and production environments. Furthermore, the manufacturing cost of such passive thermal lids is a fraction of the TCU with no additional hardware needed. Augmentation of such passive thermal lids include an enclosure to maintain positive air pressure with dry air circulating inside to prevent condensation when testing at cold temperatures below the dew point. A quasi-active thermal lid can be designed by adding either a Raspberry Pi or a similar low-cost compute device to access the chiller temperature via a serial port and control it as needed for various testing conditions in a graphical user interface. Ampere computing has successfully implemented this approach in partnership with ISC International.<\/p><p><\/p><\/details>\n<a href=\"\/premium\/welcome\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-129\" title=\"Click here to subscribe to PREMIUM content\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/premium-video-non-subscriber.png\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.testconx.org\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/premium-video-non-subscriber.png 480w, https:\/\/www.testconx.org\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/premium-video-non-subscriber-300x168.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div><a href=\"\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/TestConX2024s7p4Divakar_5428.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-70\" alt=\"PDF-Icon 150x139\" src=\"\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/PDF-Icon-150x139.png\" width=\"75\" height=\"70\" \/><\/a>&nbsp;<a href=\"\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/TestConX2024s7p4Divakar_5428.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" \/>Presentation Download<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\t \n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"x-container max width e6909-e35 m5bx-5\"><div class=\"x-column x-sm x-1-4 e6909-e36 m5bx-7\"><div class=\"x-text x-text-headline e6909-e37 m5bx-h m5bx-j m5bx-k\"><div class=\"x-text-content\"><div class=\"x-text-content-text\"><h1 class=\"x-text-content-text-primary\">10:00 am<\/h1>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"x-column x-sm x-3-4 e6909-e38 m5bx-7\"><div class=\"x-text x-text-headline e6909-e39 m5bx-h m5bx-k m5bx-l\"><div class=\"x-text-content\"><div class=\"x-text-content-text\"><h2 class=\"x-text-content-text-primary\">Break & Networking<\/h2>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"x-content-area e6909-e40 m5bx-a\"><p>Enjoy the break and networking time.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"x-container max width e6909-e41 m5bx-5\"><div class=\"x-column x-sm x-1-4 e6909-e42 m5bx-7\"><div class=\"x-text x-text-headline e6909-e43 m5bx-h m5bx-j m5bx-k\"><div class=\"x-text-content\"><div class=\"x-text-content-text\"><h1 class=\"x-text-content-text-primary\">10:30 am<\/h1>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"x-column x-sm x-3-4 e6909-e44 m5bx-7\">\n<div >\n<div class=\"testconx-session-heading \"><div class=\"sessionName\" id=\"SI 2\">Session 8<\/div><div class=\"sessionLocation\">Red Mountain Ballroom<\/div><\/div><div class=\"sessionTitle\">Signal Integrity 2<\/div><div class=\"subtitle\"><\/div><div class=\"x-hide-xs\"><p><\/p><\/div><div class=\"presentation\">\n<div class=\"presentationTitle\">\n&ldquo;New Path to Narrow Pitch Burn-In Socket&rdquo;

Different IP blocks such as memory, PCIE, USB, SERDES, WiFi, and cellular data are all integrated into a single chip and all of these functions have different frequency ranges and have historically had different impedance requirements.   \r\nHistorically, when testing these types of products, a one size fits all approach has been taken for test hardware based on the most critical or challenging feature to be tested.  For example, SERDES circuits may be designed for 100\u03a9 differential impedance and DDR circuits may be designed for 85\u03a9 differential impedance, and the socket will be designed for 100\u03a9 differential impedance.  \r\nIn this paper, the authors will compare a one size fits all approach for socket impedance with a mixed impedance socket to see whether the difference in performance is significant and whether the additional design complexity is justified.  A comparison of both simulation and VNA measurement data will be included.  The product to be tested will include 40\u03a9 single ended\/ 80\u03a9 differential impedance, 85\u03a9 differential impedance and 100\u03a9 differential impedance features.  \r\nThe paper will provide an overview of the test PCB, surrogate device, socket design, and simulation and measurements.<\/p><p><\/p><\/details>\n<a href=\"\/premium\/welcome\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-full wp-image-129\" title=\"Click here to subscribe to PREMIUM content\" alt=\"\" src=\"\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/premium-video-non-subscriber.png\" width=\"480\" height=\"270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.testconx.org\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/premium-video-non-subscriber.png 480w, https:\/\/www.testconx.org\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/premium-video-non-subscriber-300x168.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, 480px\" \/><\/a><div style=\"clear: both;\"><\/div><a href=\"\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/TestConX2024s8p2Schubring_8760.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-70\" alt=\"PDF-Icon 150x139\" src=\"\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/PDF-Icon-150x139.png\" width=\"75\" height=\"70\" \/><\/a>&nbsp;<a href=\"\/premium\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/TestConX2024s8p2Schubring_8760.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" \/>Presentation Download<\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"presentation\">\n<div class=\"presentationTitle\">\n&ldquo;Single and Dual Form C Solid State Relays for ATE\/Semiconductor Test Applications&rdquo; \n<\/div>\n<div class=\"authorList\">\n   <div class=\"author\">\n      <div class=\"authorName\">\nDon Greer\n      <\/div>\n\t    <div class=\"authorCompany\">\nSolid State Optronics\n\t    <\/div>\n   <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<details class=\"summaryDetail\">\n\t<summary class=\"summaryLine\">Abstract (English)<\/summary>\n<p>Electro-Mechanical Relays (EMRs) are one of the stickiest pieces of technology (>80 years since introduction) that is present in modern day Semiconductor Test and ATE circuit designs.
