NVIDIA adopts Teseda’s V550™
Debug & Diagnostic platform
Takes delivery of initial Silicon Validation and FA diagnostic
platform
PORTLAND, OR-June 24, 2008 – Teseda Corporation, a leading provider
of comprehensive scan-based diagnostic and debug solutions for semiconductor
yield improvement, announced today that NVIDIA has taken delivery of
their first V550™ system, and will be acquiring multiple systems. The
V550™ is part of a unified system that integrates design, test, and
diagnostic environments, leading to the rapid detection and repair of
failures. The V550™ is the most powerful desktop validation platform
in the industry, able to handle devices with up to 512 channels and
providing more memory per channel than any other desktop system. When
driven with Teseda’s powerful TWB™ software, it allows design teams
to cut validation and diagnostic time, and FA teams to quickly pinpoint
failure candidates.
“NVIDIA views the Teseda platform to be of key value primarily for failure analysis”,
said Charlie McDonald, Senior Test Manager at NVIDIA. “Having a low cost solution
will allow NVIDIA to reduce test costs (through cheaper test time) as well as
expedite the FA processes by having multiple systems working in parallel with
our existing ATE.”
“We are proud to have an industry leader like NVIDIA validate the Teseda solution”,
stated Armagan Akar, President and CEO of Teseda Corporation. “We have
worked with both the validation and FA groups at NVIDIA to demonstrate the real
value of the V550 system. We look forward to continuing to produce products
to meet their evolving needs.”
The V550™ was announced in Q4 2007 and has been shipping to leading semiconductor
companies worldwide. It joins the V520 to form the leading family of portable,
low-cost validation and FA analysis systems.
