Leveraging Hardware Enabled AI Image Analysis for Rapid 3D X-ray Inspection

4:50 pm - 5:20 pm

The global demand for high-end computing power driven by AI, smartphones, IoT applications, high-performance computing, and new mobility applications is constantly rising while facing miniaturization demands. The semiconductor industry is focused on solving this challenge – for example with innovation in advanced packaging.

As a consequence, yield and process control as well as the speed of new product introduction continue to gain importance as prototyping and verification costs increase while node sizes decrease. Typical inspection methods like optical or FIB-SEM are, therefore, complemented by advanced non-destructive inspection techniques like 3D X-ray inspection. Ultimately, advanced packaging companies seek non-destructive automated inspection tools which are fast enough to provide value within their production processes, increase yield and reduce waste at an early stage.

The speech will show how combining innovation in X-ray hardware with cutting edge AI software can achieve rapid 3D inspection of advanced packaging and highlight how this combination increases the range of application "sweet spots".
