In 3D Inspection, Can 'Length = Height' Mean No Escapes?
June 8, 2015 | Barry Matties, I-Connect007Estimated reading time: 6 minutes
Ventura: We came out with escape-free about a year and a half ago. There is no escape if you work according to the procedure. This is essential if you absolutely need something to work correctly to save lives. We also have a co-planarity test, to detect if a BGA is a little off.
Matties: What about the speed of the inspection? Is it comparable or faster than other systems?
Ventura: We actually have a brand new method we’re debuting here at this show. It's a camera that shoots on the fly and makes our process about 30% faster than before. According to inquiries from some larger companies, we meet their standards and it is sufficient for what they need. In some very high-speed lines before this, we were on the edge. Now we are far above the limit.
Matties: What sort of market share do you enjoy? I would expect you are higher in Europe.
Ventura: Yes, but it's also divided because some countries we don’t distribute to or have very active distributors. As I said before, in Italy we are number one in the market without any doubt, and it is a very competitive market. I'm from Israel, where we have been number one for many years.
Matties: Kobi, how long have you been with the company and what is your background?
Ventura: I've been with ALeader about nine years. My background is actually business management and I have a Master’s in business. I entered the market when I started a distribution company in Israel. I still have this company that sells a full SMT line as a pick-and-place distributor in Israel. We have directors running in Israel. I mainly deal with AOI and potential business.
Matties: Looks like the marketplace is picking up and a good time to be in business. There are a lot of opportunities out there for people who are innovative. It sounds like you are bringing some of that innovation to the marketplace. Congratulations for doing that.
Ventura: Thank you.
Matties: Thank you very much for joining us today.

iNEMI Packaging Tech Topic Series: Role of EDA in Advanced Semiconductor Packaging
04/26/2024 | iNEMIAdvanced semiconductor packaging with heterogenous integration has made on-package integration of multiple chips a crucial part of finding alternatives to transistor scaling. Historically, EDA tools for front-end and back-end design have evolved separately; however, design complexity and the increased number of die-to-die or die-to-substrate interconnections has led to the need for EDA tools that can support integration of overall design planning, implementation, and system analysis in a single cockpit.
