  • SCALABLE ELECTRONICS MANUFACTURING WITH RIGID TILE PANEL EMBEDDING
    Publication number: 20250285986
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for electronic manufacturing, including use of a rigid tile-in-polymer film panel. Rigid tiles can be molded with a thin polymer composite to form the rigid tile-in-polymer film panel. The rigid panel can be made of silicon, glass, ceramic ribbon, or traditional glass fiber-reinforced laminates depending on the target product segment.

  • Inline monitoring system for process defects during manufacturing
    Patent number: 12389550
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for inline process monitoring (e.g., remote inline process monitoring) for scalable and precision high-yield manufacturing. Antenna probes, such as millimeter (mm) wave (mmWave) antenna (mWA) probes, can be introduced into fabrication equipment to reveal the nature of hidden conductor and/or dielectric defects, as well as via-pad and/or device pad-trace misalignments, going beyond automated optical inspection (AOI) or contact probing.
