President, Wyoming Test Fixtures Inc. Unlike metals and plastics, for which tensile and compressive properties are the same or very similar, unidirectional composites exhibit significantly different ...

The size of designs continues to grow and IC manufacturers are pushing for higher test quality, especially in mission-critical applications such as transportation and medicine. More advanced nodes ...

Scan technology is essential for testing the digital content of large-volume devices. By using scan, you can make the device itself responsible for some of the “test” chores, and you can shorten the ...

Until the early 1970s, there was relatively little interest in measuring the compressive properties of composite materials. For design purposes, it was generally assumed that the compressive strength ...

Test compression sounds like magic. Read on to learn how this trick is done. Large, complex ICs are viable because their design meets test as well as functional requirements. Design for test (DFT) was ...
