Semiconductor quality

element

Semiconductors; Semiconductor quality

A topographically distinguishable part of a microcircuit which contributes directly to its electrical characteristics.

encapsulation

Semiconductors; Semiconductor quality

The process of encapsulating or "potting" a molded device.

EOL (end-of-line testing)

Semiconductors; Semiconductor quality

Those tests performed in assembly after the seal operation in order to confirm the quality of the device assembly. Testing would normally include such screens as stabilization bake, constant ...

epitaxial layer

Semiconductors; Semiconductor quality

A monocrystalline layer of material deposited onto a substrate in such a manner that the layer being formed has the same crystal orientation as the substrate material. (Often referred to as "epi".)

EPROM (erasable programmable read only memory)

Semiconductors; Semiconductor quality

A memory device whose content can be established through a programming process (usually hot electron injection) and can be totally erased by exposure to ultraviolet light for sustained periods ...

An alloy of two or more metals with the lowest melting point that is possible from any combination of those metals. The melting point of the eutectic will normally be lower than the melting point of ...

evaporation

Semiconductors; Semiconductor quality

One of the final steps in processing a wafer during which conductive metal, usually aluminum, is deposited on the surface of the wafer in order to provide electrical interconnection of the various ...
