Monolithic Power Systems Deployed yieldWerx Semiconductor Test And Yield Management Solutions

San Jose, CA (Marketwire) - Monolithic Power Systems (MPS), a leading fabless manufacturer of high-performance analog and mixed signal semiconductors headquartered in San Jose, California, has implemented and used yieldWerx Semiconductor Test and Yield Management solutions.

Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) required a robust and centralized system for effective storage, analysis, and sharing of testing and product data received from multiple foundries, assembly, and testing facilities in both the US and Asia. MPS also looked for best practices to streamline data management, implement quality control measures, optimize and automate yield management and analysis activities through the implementation of a time-proven system solution.

MPS had a rapid-RFP write-up and invited multiple Semiconductor Yield Data Storage and Analysis vendors for on-site presentations and system evaluations. yieldWerx was selected based on a pre-defined set of criteria, including solution features-fit and technical architecture consideration, etc. They were also impressed by yieldWerx industry insights, adaptive approach for customer needs and overall commitments for system implantation.

"When our customers realize that we are building a solution for not only their current needs, but also looking ahead by leveraging our industry experience and best practices, they will particularly appreciate our solution and advices. What we always strive for is a shared solution road-map that goes far beyond a traditional system implementation exercise. We have not only the expertise to do so with our deep roots in semiconductor, but also the operational efficiency to do it cost-effectively for our customers," added Omar Malik, CEO of yieldWerx.
