0 ppm failures is driving increased requirement to find the true root cause of failure in an efficient and systematic manner to support customer returns and production problems. Reliable IC decapsulation is a pre-requisite to ensure the original failure sites are preserved, requiring:
• No process-induced damage
• Preserving device electrical functionality
• Preserving original failure sites
• Preserving bond wires (Cu, Ag, PCC, Au)
• Localized decapsulation MIP (CF4-free) No damage
• Ability to handle advanced packages
• Clean removal of high Tg mold compound

The consumer & communication electronics are rapidly evolving. As the packaging and materials used to satisfy consumer demands is ever changing, reliability test & failure analysis demands are increasing due to:
– IC packages becoming smaller and increasing in complexity (SiP, 3D packaging, WLCSP, etc.)
– Shift from wire bonded to non-wire packages (WLCSP, TSV’s, 3D stacked die)
– Bond wire material changes due to increasing prices (Shift from Au to Cu to Ag)
– Newer manufacturing technologies (GaAs, SAW/BAW filters)
– Reliability requirements are rising, requiring: no process-induced damage, preservation of device electrical functionality, and the preservation of original failure sites

When preparing samples for Failure Analysis, traditional decapsulation methods are no longer suitable, jeopardizing your further analysis steps. Acid decapsulation often destroys the original failure site and introduces external artifacts, making your sample analysis unreliable. CF4 based plasma decapsulation systems risk fluorine over-etch of Silicon, Silicon Nitride Passivation etc.
JIACO Instruments MIP decapsulation:
– Preserves the original failure sites on your sample, such as contamination, corrosion, and migration
– Does not introduce any external artifacts.
– Enables reliable sample analysis
– Gets it right the first time.
