NPI planning & process setup
New product introduction is structured around process definition, tooling readiness, work instructions, and yield targets before the first production build begins.

Delivery Model
Manufacturing Discipline, Delivery Workflow, and Production Ramp
A single SAS delivery model that connects manufacturing readiness, assembly, test, qualification, and production ramp.
SAS combines engineering execution with manufacturing discipline so advanced semiconductor hardware can move from requirements to repeatable production without losing design intent. The model joins process planning, supplier alignment, assembly, inspection, test, validation, and sustaining support in one flow.
One connected flow
Engineering, suppliers, assembly, test, and sustaining support stay connected through controlled checkpoints.
Delivery Model
Manufacturing Discipline Connected to Delivery Workflow
SAS supports process engineering, sourcing, assembly, inspection, electrical test, and production ramp for advanced semiconductor hardware through one structured delivery model.
NPI & process setupAssembly & testProduction ramp
Assembly, test & quality
SAS supports assembly flow, inspection, functional test, and traceability requirements so each build moves through a controlled and repeatable manufacturing path.
Production ramp & supply continuity
Ramp plans, supplier coordination, and manufacturing feedback loops are built into the program so prototype success translates into stable production output.
Operating Principles
How SAS Keeps Delivery Controlled
The model is designed for hardware programs where package, board, fixture, supplier, and test decisions affect each other.
One owner for the interface
SAS keeps package, board, fixture, supplier, and test assumptions connected so ownership gaps do not appear during build.
Manufacturing feedback enters engineering
Yield observations, inspection results, and assembly constraints are fed back into design decisions and documentation.
Release data stays controlled
Drawings, BoMs, Gerbers, ODB++, test files, travelers, and ECO updates are managed as part of the delivery system.
Delivery Workflow
Five Checkpoints From Requirements to Sustainment
The workflow gives every program a clear path for technical closure, build readiness, and production learning.
01
Requirements
Define target performance, compliance needs, production assumptions, risk items, and the review rhythm.
02
Design and engineering
Develop package, board, RF, thermal, mechanical, and test hardware with manufacturing input already active.
03
Fabrication and assembly
Coordinate suppliers, tooling, incoming inspection, assembly steps, and controlled first article builds.
04
Test and qualification
Verify electrical, mechanical, environmental, and workmanship expectations before production release.
05
Ramp and sustain
Transfer the program into repeat builds with documentation control, change management, and supplier continuity.
Quality Controls
Control Points Built Into the Program
DFM and DFT checkpoints before release
