Title: 3D Chip Products Are Now Really Taking Off: Is The Test Community Ready For It?

3D-ICs are finally turning into volume products. On the Gartner hype curve, after the technology trigger and the peak of inflated expectations, we seem to have crossed the trough of disillusionment and find ourselves now on the slope of enlightenment, firmly on our way to the plateau of productivity. Is the test community ready for real products in high volumes will require testing? Do we know which additional tests we need? Is the DfT infrastructure ready and sufficiently standardized to be compatible between multiple dies? Can we probe and test partial and complete die stacks? And will the cost of test be affordable? Expert panelists will give their viewpoints.
