Artificial intelligence techniques in IC chip marking
(Kolej Universiti Kejuruteraan Utara Malaysia, 2005)In this paper, an industrial machine vision system incorporating Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is employed to inspect the marking on the Integrated Circuit (IC) Chips. This inspection is carried out while the ICs are ... -
The characterization of Al Bond pad surface treatment in Electroless Nickel Immersion Gold (ENIG) deposition
(Science Publications, 2007)This study reports a number of experiments that were designed to characterize aluminum bond pad surfaces prior to electroless nickel immersion gold (ENIG). In the ENIG process, aluminum bond pads need special treatment ... -
A genetic algorithm approach to VLSI macro cell non-slicing floorplans using binary tree
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (IEEE), 2008-05)This paper proposes an optimization approach for macro-cell placement which minimizes the chip area size. A binary tree method for non-slicing tree construction process is utilized for the placement and area optimization ... -
Nano patterning of cone dots and nano constrictions of negative e-beam resist for single electron transistor fabrication
(Springer New York, 2007-12)We present an optimization of nano dot of negative tone e-beam resist which is a very important step in single electron transistor fabrication process. The optimum design of dot and nano constriction plays a significant ... -
The performance study of two genetic algorithm approaches for VLSI Macro-Cell layout area optimization
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (IEEE), 2008)Very large scale integrated (VLSI) design has been the subject of much research since the early 1980s where the VLSI cell placement emerges to be a crucial stage in the chip design. Its area optimization is very important ...
