Avalanche and ISI developed a new wafer level analyzer for STT-MRAM

Avalanche Technology and Integral Solutions International (ISI) have designed a Wafer Level Analyzer, the WLA-3000, to be used in STT-MRAM development.

The WLA-3000 includes specific hardware test modules including nS-range Pulse Generator that quickly measures switching currentse of MTJ devices in STT-MRAM as a function of Pulse Width. Using this Pulse Generator module, customers will be able to perform Error Rate, Switching Probability, Endurance Testing, and Read/Write Disturb analysis in a fraction of time as compared to other slower pulsers.

Riber launches an innovative robotic system in 300mm SEMI process modules

Riber has launched a new innovative robotic system, the MPVD300 reactor. Based on a high vacuum deposition system (UHV) and compatible with existing silicon FAB industry standards, the MPVD 300 provides unrivalled precision of control and composition uniformity defects of less than 1% over 300mm (monoatomic layer precision).

Riber sayst he new machine willhelp make new ultra-fast microprocessors and high-capacity MRAM.

Fully automated, Riber's MPVD300 is the only modular system for high vacuum deposition that can beconnected up directly to the silicon production line. The first system will be shipped in July to a major manufacturer in Asia.

Crocus buys MRAM measurement equipment from CAPRES A/S

Crocus announced today that it has implemented CIPtech, the newest tool from CAPRES A/S, for enabling measurements associated with advanced Spin Torque Technology (STT). This unique new tool, designed especially for the MRAM and magnetic recording Read Head industries, enables Crocus to determine tunneling resistance on MTJ films prior to final test. With this upgrade, measurement that used to require weeks of sample preparation can now be performed within minutes.
