Know Before You Go: Visualize in 3D Without Altering Your Defect

With increasing package complexity comes more challenges for failure analysts to provide definitive proof on the root causes of a failure. Non-destructive 3D X-ray imaging allows visualization inside of disturbing your regions of interest. Acquire high-resolution data in tens of minutes to several hours to increase your FA success rate.

Learn how 3D X-ray microscopy fits into your failure analysis workflow and see the throughput benefits as compared to physical cross-sections.

In package level failure analysis, multiple defects can spread out anywhere in a package. Fully motorized sample stages are required to automatically scan different locations in one recipe. X-ray microscopy uses submicron-accuracy positioning stages to precisely locate regions of interest.

Learn about ZEISS’s mature workflow-based user interface that enables users to navigate through several easy steps to setup multiple tomographies.  

3D X-ray microscopy (XRM) performs full angular rotation of a sample. True 3D data are generated by the reconstruction based on collective projection views. Other X-ray imaging techniques such as 2D X-ray or laminography suffer from the intrinsic limitation in inadequate sampling.

Read about differences between several X-ray imaging techniques and learn how 3D X-ray microscopy is the only technique to provide true 3D views of semiconductor package defects.

Modern semiconductor package designs are trending towards large sizes and complex architectures. ZEISS’s unique Resolution at a Distance (RaaD) capability offers advantages to acquire high-resolution images compared with traditional microCT systems.

Fast product introduction requires rapid structural and failure analysis. Increasing packaging sizes result in smaller, more difficult-to-find defects and longer imaging time. AI-powered reconstruction using ZEISS DeepRecon Pro enables faster high-resolution 3D X-ray image acquisition. Additionally, the optional robotic autoloader allows unattended imaging of multiple samples.

Learn how these groundbreaking advances in scan productivity empower users to fully realize XRM benefits.
