  • Abstract
    The author describes the use of scanning acoustic microscopy (SAM) for the inspection of interfaces within the structure of an assembled VLSI component. The advantages of using SAM (non-destructive test) instead of the traditional mechanical shear testing (destructive) or X-ray analysis are discussed also
