proteanTecs’ Die-to-Die Interconnect Monitoring IP Achieves TSMC9000 Qualification

Embedded agents monitor die-to-die connectivity and offer high-resolution visibility into advanced heterogeneous packaging

HAIFA, Israel — (BUSINESS WIRE) — February 23, 2023 — proteanTecs, a global leader of deep data analytics for advanced electronics, announced today that the company received the TSMC9000 quality approval for their die-to-die interconnect monitoring agents. TSMC, the world’s largest semiconductor foundry, awards the TSMC9000 designation to intellectual property (IP) solutions that pass their rigorous assessments.

TSMC9000 IP assessment program provides TSMC customers with a consistent and efficient way to review a set of baseline quality criteria and IPs designed for TSMC process technologies. The certification is open to TSMC’s IP Alliance Program members, which proteanTecs joined in early 2021. The IP Alliance provides the semiconductor industry’s largest catalog of silicon-verified, production-proven and foundry-specific IP.

“The process for receiving TSMC9000 certification is selective and rigorous, and the assessment results are designed to streamline and shorten our customers’ system on chip (SoC) design processes,” said Dan Kochpatcharin, Director of Design Infrastructure Management Division at TSMC. “By achieving this qualification, proteanTecs assures its customers that their IP meets the highest standards for quality and time-to-market reliability.”

proteanTecs’ monitoring IP is the deep data generator behind the company’s interconnect monitoring solution, which offers comprehensive visibility into high bandwidth die-to-die interfaces. As the industry adopts heterogeneous systems, the testing of inter-die links is critical. Traditional approaches rely on low-granularity, pass-fail testing, and offer limited monitoring during field operation. Addressing this challenge, proteanTecs’ patented solution delivers parametric lane grading with 100-percent lane and pin coverage, at test and in mission-mode.

“Earning the TSMC9000 certification is a testament to the quality of our monitoring technology,” said Nir Sever, Senior Director of Business Development at proteanTecs. “We look forward to our continued partnership with TSMC and our continued participation in TSMC Open Innovation Platform® (OIP) ecosystem.”
