Vibration damping apparatus for vibrating environment such as a light emission microscope and an integrated circuit test head includes a rigid member with remotely controlled clamping apparatus attached to spaced portions of the member. The clamping apparatus engage the microscope and the test head for reducing vibrations, and the clamping apparatus can be readily deactivated for moving the microscope or the test head for alignment purposes. Advantageously, two or more rigid members including pneumatic cylinders can be positioned around the device under test while permitting the use of mechanical probes for engaging nodes of an integrated circuit for test purposes.

Dynamic structural coupling mechanism for reducing optical degradation in vibrating environments

A semiconductor current limiting device is provided by a two-terminal vertical N(P)-channel MOSFET device having the gate, body, and source terminals tied together as the anode and the drain terminal as the cathode. The doping profile of the body is so tailored with ion implantation that a depletion region pinches off to limit current. The body comprises a shallow implant to form a MOS channel and an additional deep implant through a spacer shielding the channel area. Implanted a higher energies and at an acute angle, the deep implant protrudes into the regular current path of the vertical MOSFET.

Power device having vertical current path with enhanced pinch-off for current limiting

A vertical semiconductor rectifier device includes a semiconductor substrate of first conductivity type and having a plurality of gates insulatively formed on a first major surface and a plurality of source/drain regions of the first conductivity type formed in surface regions of second conductivity type in the first major surface adjacent to the gates. A plurality of channels of the second conductivity type each abuts a source/drain region and extends under a gate.

Method of fabricating power rectifier device

An emission microscope is mounted on a transportable structure for use on a test floor and encloses or garages an entire automatic test equipment head to facilitate high-speed testing. Test procedures allow development of static/fixed defects over time. A video mask can be developed based on emission sites on known good devices so that only emission from defect sites of bad devices under test are shown.
