Pioneering the Future of Failure Analysis

Founded in 1997, Neocera was built on groundbreaking research from the University of Maryland, where we exclusively licensed patents for using Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs) to image magnetic fields in electronic devices. Over the years, we've expanded on these innovations, becoming a leader in the semiconductor industry for non-destructive, high-resolution fault localization.

Revolutionizing Magnetic Field Imaging for Semiconductor Defects

Our flagship Magma product line was the first to offer magnetic field imaging solutions capable of identifying shorts and package leakage defects in semiconductor devices. As technology advanced, we introduced a giant Magnetoresistive (GMR) sensor to enable high-resolution defect localization directly on semiconductor die. This unique approach gave engineers a powerful tool for precision fault isolation—accelerating analysis and reducing time to market.
