Keithley Publishes New Semiconductor Test Tutorial Handbook.CLEVELAND -- Keithley Instruments Keithley Instruments (NYSE: KEI) is a measurement and instrument company headquartered in Solon, Ohio. Keithley develops, manufactures, markets and sells highly accurate instruments and data acquisition products, as well as complete system solutions for high-volume production , Inc. (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :KEI), a leader in solutions for emerging measurement needs, has published a semiconductor test reference handbook titled Overcoming the Measurement Challenges of Advanced Semiconductor Technologies: DC, Pulsed, and RF--From Modeling to Manufacturing. The 140-page handbook describes emerging measurement challenges for semiconductor manufacturers as they move into the 65nm technology node See technology generation. and beyond. The handbook is available for no charge at http://www.keithley.com/pr/014. For High Resolution Image: http://www.ggcomm.com/KEI_Images/SemiHandbook.JPG See JPEG. jpg - JPEG . The handbook draws from the collective experience of Keithley's parametric test and device characterization experts and the company's customers. It covers a variety of emerging technologies and processes, such as: --Challenges in RF wafer testing --Gate dielectric dielectric (dī'ĭlĕk`trĭk), material that does not conduct electricity readily, i.e., an insulator (see insulation). A good dielectric should also have other properties: It must resist breakdown under high voltages; it should not reliability testing --Charge pumping and reliability --High frequency capacitance measurement Capacitance measurement The measurement of the ratio of the charge induced on a conductor to the change in potential with respect to a neighboring conductor which induces the charge. --Copper via testing --Advanced SMU SMU Southern Methodist University SMU Solid (Waste) Management Unit SMU Saint Mary's University (Halifax, Nova Scotia; Philippines) SMU Singapore Management University SMU Saint Mary's University of Minnesota DC measurements The handbook also contains a glossary A term used by Microsoft Word and adopted by other word processors for the list of shorthand, keyboard macros created by a particular user. See glossaries in this publication and The Computer Glossary. of commonly used terms in the semiconductor industry, including test and measurement terminology.
