Semiconductor Reverse Engineering for Process R&D Teams

The value of competitive analysis is rising as process technology becomes more complex, smaller, and riskier to implement in first silicon. To ensure they make the right technology choices, process technology teams leverage a variety of tools, from conference proceedings through to full reverse engineering of their peers’ devices. This happens daily in technologies as diverse as advanced CMOS, BiCMOS, MEMS, Image Sensors - and many others.

Our clients tell us that getting analysis on leading process technology helps them to:

• Reduce the risk of billion dollar long-term investments

• Save millions in product and process development costs

• Earn millions in new revenue by getting to market faster with better products
