Saelig Introduces Precision Multi-layer Thickness Measurement System

Fairport, NY, USA:  Saelig Company, Inc. (www.saelig.com) has announced the OptiGauge MLS™ – an innovative, patented non-contact thickness measurement system that is non-destructive and since it is self-calibrating, it leaves no opportunity for operator error. The OptiGauge MLS™ can measure each translucent coating in an object up to 20 layers thick – the thickness of individual layers and total overall thickness is calculated automatically.

A selection of available optical probes can be used to direct 1310nm infrared light from a super-luminescent LED through a variety of materials – transparent, translucent, or colored materials.  As the refractive index changes from each internal surface, the OptiGauge MLS produces reflections for instant analysis with the advanced software’s graphical interface. The patent-protected design contains no moving parts for excellent reliability when measuring objects from 12um to 50mm thick, with sub-micron accuracy. 

This system is geared to customers who require the most flexibility in a measurement system. The multi-layer system provides the ease of use, reliability, and sub-micron accuracy that manufacturers need for use in quality, R&D labs, and production floors.  This system can improve yields, reduce costs, increase quality, and contribute to meeting strict compliance requirements.

The OptiGauge MLS System consists of the OptiGauge- MLS and Controller, the Control Center Software License, a monitor, keyboard, and mouse, and an Optical Probe. A range of Optical Probes is available to choose from depending on individual applications.  Compact in size for use on any bench-top (16.75″W x 18″D x 5.5″H) and weighing 20lbs, the OptiGauge MLS System is designed for an operating temperature range of 15degC to 30degC.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
