  Semiconductor Test Data Analysis Overview
yieldWerx provides a suite of semiconductor test data acquisition, analysis, and reporting solutions for semiconductor companies, design houses, and engineering groups. With easy access to semiconductor production data, STDF, ATDF and semiconductor engineering data from manufacturing processes, wafer probe data, final semiconductor test data as well as other external semiconductor test data analysis sources, yieldWerx allows the product, device, and process engineer the ability to quickly study semiconductor test data analysis from STDF, ATDF files, diagnose semiconductor test data, and put in place corrective actions enabling fast and efficient product release, as well as driving semiconductor yield enhancements. Direct upload for STDF, ATDF, CSV/Excel formats


Flexible Data Import
Start your semiconductor data analysis by uploading a semiconductor test data file to the yieldWerx database for functional test semiconductor data analysis and semiconductor characterization. File formats such as STDF, ATDF, and CSV/Excel opened directly in yieldWerx for semiconductor data analysis. Upload STDF, ATDF, CSV files just in one click.

Versatile Reports

Create Reports quickly and easily for semiconductor data analysis and semiconductor yield enhancement using entire data columns or just a selection of your data for semiconductor data analysis with yieldWerx.

Set different parameters to create Reports for your semiconductor data analysis and characterization. Semiconductor Data analysis can be taken from multiple wafers belonging to different Lots and different Test Programs for a single type of Device. This is very useful feature when doing correlation analysis on different test programs or semiconductor products. yieldWerx Reports also have Custom Bin Coloring features for semiconductor data analysis.

You can group your semiconductor test data in yieldWerx by Lot, Wafer, Test Program, User Defined Wafer Groups, or User Defined Bin Groups. yieldWerx interactive charting capabilities allow users to read the Die Count, Percentage of Dies in a particular bar, Total lots or Total wafers in a particular bar just by using the Mouse Over feature for semiconductor data analysis.

Complete Control Over Data
yieldWerx provides flexibility to modify semiconductor test data analysis and run What If Analysis. Users can view the Raw Data Table with data from Multiple Facilities, multiple Work Centers, Device Types, Test Programs, Lots, Wafers, and Die.

Semiconductor data statistical analysis include Mean, Sigma, Yield, Cp, and Cpk. File formats such as STDF, ATDF, and CSV/ Excel may be opened directly in Yield Power for semiconductor data analysis. yieldWerx is unique in its feature of providing users with the ability to modify semiconductor test data once it has been loaded into the yieldWerx Database. Built on Microsoft SQL Server, the world's leading Database Technology, Semiconductor Test Data analysis in yieldWerx can be modified, and statistical results recalculated to do What If Analysis.

Users can also filter semiconductor test Data by Limits from the STDF ATDF File, User Limits, Sigma Limits, and Tukey Limits. yieldWerx interactive interface allows you to do semiconductor test data analysis, grouping by Lots or Wafers, on the fly.
