theGuild
theGuild develops integrated strain sensors for measuring mechanical stress in semiconductor manufacturing and operation.
theGuild measures and maps strain in semiconductor processes using in-die strain sensors, chiplets for strain monitoring, and packaging-induced strain measurements. The company developed an integrated strain sensor IP capable of measuring local two-dimensional strain on a silicon die for real-time monitoring of mechanical stress across silicon surfaces. Their technology serves as a diagnostic tool during development and operation, and as a means to optimize manufacturing processes.
