Abstract
The present invention provides a hot shear fixture for effectively and efficiently separating components of a device package for low yield analysis. More specifically, the hot shear fixture provides a cavity for receiving the desired device package and a shearing plate. Depending on the thermal properties of the package materials, the fixture, device package and shear plate are heated for a predetermined time before the shear plate is advanced to separate the desired components of the inserted device package.
