The so-called sub fab, which is one level below the main factory floor, contains tens of thousands of pieces of equipment used to support the 1,200 chipmaking tools in the cleanrooms on the factory floor.
The test setup enables reliable and repeatable lab testing for an objective comparison of various integrated joint communications and sensing (JCAS) approaches.
Aside from the small size and ruggedness characteristics of COM Express systems, the major benefits come from the ability to upgrade the CPU when necessary and the I/O module configurability.
The compact, complete and CISPR 16-1-1 compliant test receiver delivers quick and precise electromagnetic interference (EMI) measurements up to 30 MHz.
Are some industries now reporting supply overages? Where is the market in the natural cycle of chip supply-and-demand? Where will the impact of the U.S. CHIPS and Science Act be felt first? Will 2023 be a bull or bear market for memory chips?
