LogicMap

Knights LogicMap™ is the industry’s first commercially available software solution for correlating inline defects with failed nets in a logic device. LogicMap performs similar to memory bitmapping, but is tailored for logic devices. Electrical failures are localized into a relatively small physical trace on the die. Due to the complex nature of logic devices and available data streams, no external solution has been available, only homegrown customer solutions requiring a great deal of software development, infrastructure and support.

Promotes true design for manufacturability
Identifies the suspect process step with a high level of confidence using inline defect data
Drastically lowers the need for physical failure analysis
Helps optimize inline inspection recipes
Provides defect pareto and kill ratio charts with meaningful amounts of data
Maximizes the efficient use of expensive tool and engineering resources
