Post Silicon Validation

Post Silicon Validation

Post Silicon Validation (PSV) is a critical phase in the semiconductor development lifecycle, where the functionality and performance of silicon are validated in real-world conditions after fabrication. At Qbit Labs, we specialize in providing comprehensive Post Silicon Validation services that ensure the reliability, performance, and functionality of your semiconductor designs. Our team utilizes state-of-the-art FPGA-based solutions to simulate, test, and validate complex designs, ensuring they meet all expected specifications before full-scale production.

Custom FPGA-based Test Solutions

We work closely with our clients’ test and QA teams to design and implement FPGA-based custom test solutions tailored to each project’s specific needs. These solutions simulate a wide range of real-world conditions, enabling comprehensive validation of silicon devices across diverse operating scenarios. Whether used for debugging, performance benchmarking, or functional verification, our FPGA-based systems offer the flexibility and scalability essential for effective Post Silicon validation. By providing precise and adaptable testing environments, we help ensure that devices meet rigorous quality standards and perform reliably in their intended applications.

Performance and Stress Testing

We conduct detailed stress testing of silicon designs to thoroughly validate their performance under a wide range of extreme operating conditions. Leveraging customized FPGA test solutions, we simulate high-stress environments to evaluate device behavior and resilience. This approach ensures that silicon components consistently meet performance expectations, even when subjected to the most demanding scenarios. Our rigorous testing process helps identify potential weaknesses early, enabling improvements that boost reliability and robustness. By accurately replicating challenging conditions, our solutions provide clients with confidence in their silicon’s ability to perform reliably in real-world applications.

Verification of Signal Integrity and Timing

At Qbit Labs, we prioritize thorough verification of signal integrity and timing through the use of advanced FPGA-based testing tools. Our tailored test solutions are designed to detect potential problems such as signal degradation, noise interference, or timing violations that often remain hidden during early design stages. By identifying these critical issues early, we help ensure that your product maintains optimal performance and reliability throughout its lifecycle. Our comprehensive approach provides clients with greater confidence that their systems will function flawlessly under real-world conditions, minimizing risks and enhancing overall product quality.

Power and Functional Testing

We validate the power consumption and functional behavior of silicon devices by designing specialized FPGA-based tests capable of capturing real-time data and comparing it against expected power profiles. These targeted tests help identify discrepancies, inefficiencies, or unexpected power usage, providing crucial insights into power management effectiveness. By pinpointing areas for improvement, we enable optimization of the overall system’s energy efficiency without compromising functionality. This comprehensive validation approach ensures that silicon components not only meet performance requirements but also adhere to stringent power budgets, contributing to more reliable, cost-effective, and sustainable technology solutions.

Debugging and Fault Isolation

Our FPGA-based test environments play a crucial role in detecting and isolating faults early in the silicon validation process. By accurately replicating the real-world conditions where failures may arise, these test setups allow us to quickly identify and pinpoint the root causes of issues. This early fault detection helps prevent costly redesigns and delays by addressing problems before they escalate. Through rigorous testing and analysis, we ensure that your silicon performs reliably and seamlessly in the final product, providing confidence in its quality and operational stability across various applications.

Data Logging and Reporting

We provide advanced data logging and reporting capabilities that meticulously capture detailed information throughout the validation testing process. Our systems ensure that any anomalies, irregularities, or unexpected behaviors are recorded with high precision, enabling thorough analysis. This comprehensive documentation delivers valuable insights that support further design refinement and system optimization. By offering clear, actionable data, our solutions help clients make informed decisions to enhance product reliability, performance, and quality. This detailed feedback loop is essential for continuous improvement and successful product development cycles.
