  • 简介

Nigel Beddoe is the Director Product Marketing Management – MEMS and Sensors for Cohu Inc. and is based out of Melaka, Malaysia.

After graduating from the University of Wales in Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Nigel has been in the Semiconductor Final Test environment since 1978. In his positions at previous companies such as Inmos (UK) and STMicroelectronics (Malaysia,), he has gained experience using a variety of semiconductor test solutions across the complete test process flow through to finishing. Since 2000 Nigel Beddoe has been with Multitest, a Cohu company, as a provider of semiconductor test cell solutions. Nigel has been focusing on MEMS final test solutions since 2012 and can benefit from an excellent network and experience with the big and new players of the market. He is currently driving the new Cohu High SNR Microphone test solution project with exciting feedback from the MEMS Microphone manufacturers.

Solving the Problem of High SNR Microphone Final Test Requirements

The forecast for high SNR MEMS microphones over the next 5 years is high growth and even higher SNR requirements The market is searching for a final test solution that can achieve high SNR specification in high volume manufacturing and can operate in a normal production floor. This solution has to provide highly accurate sound generation and measurement utilising an optimized sound isolation.

This presentation will show, using actual test data from customer samples, that Cohu has been able to solve the trilemma being faced by current solution providers.

These are:

  1. The need for the best possible sound isolation without the need for any anechoic chambers or rooms in a production environment.
  2. Repeatable and consistent contacting of the various pad layouts across the full device package range.
  3. A highly accurate sound source capable of reaching very high SPL levels with the highest THD accuracy specifications.
