At the 3D-TEST Workshop, FormFactor will feature its 40µm grid-array pitch contactor technology for direct testing of Through-Silicon-Vias (TSVs), as well as grid-array micro-bumps or copper pillars for 2.5D/3D IC integration. This proprietary contactor technology is being evaluated by leading memory semiconductor manufacturers in their TSV development programs. The company will discuss certain new developments achieved with the contactor technology in a formal presentation and table-top demonstration at the 3D-TEST Workshop. The company's contactor technology was honored earlier this year at the IEEE VLSI Test Symposium in Berkeley when a presentation titled "Direct Connection and Testing of TSV and Micro-bump Devices using NanoPierce™" captured
the "Best Paper Award" for FormFactor authors Dr. Onnik Yaglioglu and Ben Eldridge, the company's CTO.
On Friday, September 13, FormFactor executives and technologists will participate in the following events at the 3D-TEST Workshop:
Session 7: 3D Wafer Probing
10:55am
