Test equipment

wafer

Semiconductors; Test equipment

A thin, polished slice of monolithic semiconductor on which an array of die are fabricated.

spike

Semiconductors; Test equipment

A transient disturbance of an electrical circuit caused by, for example, load variations on the AC power line.

edge-placement accuracy

Semiconductors; Test equipment

The precision within which an edge can be placed relative to a reference.

seebeck effect

Semiconductors; Test equipment

The principle that describes how thermocouples work. A thermocouple circuit contains two junctions of two dissimilar metals.

cyclization

Semiconductors; Test equipment

The process by which discrete time signals (such as supplied in VCD) are mapped to a representation amenable to automatic test equipment.

amplitude modulation

Semiconductors; Test equipment

The process in which the amplitude of a carrier wave is varied according to a specific law.

analog-to-digital conversion

Semiconductors; Test equipment

The process that changes an analog signal into a digital magnitude value.
