My attempts to reach you have been bouncing. I'm trying
two different routes at once. You may receive two copies of this.

The following is a posting for mod.vlsi

Here at Michigan State Univ. we are in the process of setting up a VLSI
design lab. For design we are using Sun3/160s off a VAX8600 running
Ultrix1.2 and using the UCB and UW VLSI tools. We're pretty much set
on the design end and will be fabricating through MOSIS. However,
not much thought has been put into a testing facility. (I'm the only
one working on it) I would appreciate any info I could receive from
others doing similar work on what they are doing for testing. I would
like to get something similar to a Teradyne J941, however, as is typical
acadaemia, we don't have 1.5meg to drop on one. Less expensive
alternatives? Companies friendly to institutions of high learning?
Any partnerships possible in development of testing products in exchange
for price breaks? Or any body want to make an out right gift? :-) :-)

We also have a VALID system with REALFAST and REALCHIP. Anybody
with experience on these machines know if they're good for
doing any testing after fabrication or not?
I would also like to hear from someone about the capabilities of
REALFAST and REALCHIP.

I'm on UUCP
