More complex packaging and additional test insertions are generating vast amounts of data, much of it siloed across companies and facilities. Chipmakers need better ways to monitor aging and reliability as customers push to extend the life of increasingly expensive AI hardware.\n\nReporting also notes that the rapid pace of change in AI models and approaches is creating confusion over what to test, when to test it, and what to monitor once chips are in the field. Until recently, test targets and the timing for test insertions generally were determined by fab processes and the laws of physics, and the results of those tests were deterministic and quantifiable. But starting with the rollout of generative AI and the ensuing explosion of data centers, the gap has widened between the rollout of new algorithms and use models and the time it takes to deploy a chip in the field. An increasing number of high-performance processors used in data centers, and many at the edge, are multi-die assemblies.\n\nPoints still worth watching: The chips are more complex and take longer to design, manufacture, package, and assemble, and the workloads for which they are designed often change by the time those chips leave final test.
