Whatever role you have in semiconductor test, real-time information can help
Regardless of your position real-time information can help make your job easier, more efficient, and more productive. From three perspectives; material (ICs), equipment / test software (tester, hardware, and test program), and people (utilization and efficiency) real-time information can help save significant amounts of money, time, and material.
Consider the following day to day occurrences that illustrate the value of real-time information:
- Seeing that a technician turned off site #3 for tester ‘x’ at 3am on a Saturday can save you valuable time, money, and material.
- Watching the mid-lot updates every ‘n’ minutes on that first critical silicon for a new design can increase ‘yield learning’ and speed up a product’s introduction. You save time and money as well as gaining market share via faster time-to-market.
- Having every operator on a test floor know exactly how they are performing against the expectations across; total yield, thru-put, and multi-site yield variance on a tester by tester basis can help drive over-all efficiency and utilization upward saving time and money.
- Being able to see all of your test subcontractors in real-time with a common format for all devices, ATE platforms, and test floor locations can help effectively manage a semiconductor test supply chain with improved responsiveness.
