MPI Introduces Unique NoiseShield(TM) Option for 1/f (Flicker) & RTN Measurements
HSINCHU, Nov. 6, 2019 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

MPI introduced a new NoiseShield(TM) option, which provides excellent 
EMI-shielding, low impedance grounding and shortest possible cable lengths to 
reduce parasitic capacitance and to maximize the test system roll-off 
frequency. It reduces external magnetic field influences on the measurement 
results and makes the 1/f, RTN setup more robust and test lab location 
less-independent. It makes the probe station completely "invisible" and enables 
the measurement results down to the physical limit of the test instrumentation.

"The MPI NoiseShield(TM) is the next step in providing a high value solution 
for 1/f measurements." Said Toe Naing Swe, Director Device Modeling, at MPI 
Advanced Semiconductor Test Division. "In combination with the MPI 
ShielDEnvironment(TM), users can now experience excellent EMI-Shielding for not 
only device under test (DUT) and the measurement instrument (such as 
pre-amplifier unit of ProPlus 9812DX), it also includes all cables and 
connectors. The fully integrated solution also shortens the cables by placing 
the LNA very close to DUT. Installed on TS3500-SE with MPI WaferWallet(R), 
customers can now perform, for the first time ever, unsurpassed fully-automated 
1/f measurements. MPI SENTIO(R) Software Suite includes native drivers for the 
ProPlus Design Solutions product suite, such as BSIMProPlus(TM) and 
NoiseProPlus(TM), making such automation out of the box easy."

"The MPI prober is excellent and best I have ever worked with", said Dr. 
Zhihong Liu, CEO and Co-Founder of ProPlus Design Solutions Inc. "For noise 
measurement, it gives the best performance both in shielding and reduction in 
parasitics. With it, we are able to reach the limit of our system without 
trade-offs. Using the High Precision LNA in 9812DX, we can get to the floor 
noise of 3e-27 A^2/Hz with >20KHz bandwidth and accurately monitor the bias 
current down to pA level simultaneously. It can also measure down to 0.1Hz in 
the low frequency end without the introduction of mechanical vibration. Using 
the MPI prober, we also measured a MOSFET with 10MHz on-wafer bandwidth and the 
noise level is reaching to our Wideband LNA noise floor."
