Messenger, Charles G. ; Farrell, John P.
Abstract :
The task of device qualification of application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs), where quick turn-around and low volumes are involved, has been by developing a process-oriented system, where the disciplines of design, fabrication, assembly, and test for a given technology are certified and qualified instead of individual devices. Manufacturers who successfully complete the requirements will be listed on a Qualified Manufacturer´s Listing (QML), and all products built and tested on the QML flow will be qualified for use in military systems. The requirements to be met are described
