Test is a crucial time in an IC development process; if you find a bug or an issue, it is a good time to fix it, but every additional second of testing we do, is additional cost when you scale a device into production. So, test engineers must identify the critical points of the device where testing is most necessary and the points where we may want to take some risk. It is a precise balance, that has the potential to save our businesses millions of dollars!

Test engineers spend a good amount of time in the lab and when they're not there, they are designing test hardware using software tools like cadence and building test programs on an ATE simulator, or troubleshooting – the programs or the device.

About the Company

Texas Instruments

Makes analog and embedded chips in its own plants

Texas Instruments designs and makes analog and embedded processing chips, the basic parts inside cars, factory equipment, data centers, and consumer electronics, and it sells one of the broadest chip catalogs in the industry. In 1958, its engineer Jack Kilby built the first integrated circuit, the building block of modern electronics, and later won a Nobel Prize for it. Its analog chips regulate power and convert signals such as sound and heat into data, while its microcontrollers act as small built-in computers, and TI earns money selling both to device makers. It also makes the graphing calculators many students use in math class. Texas Instruments was founded in 1930 and is based in Dallas, Texas.
