A system and method for preparing semiconductor samples for analytical techniques such as backside emission microscopy. Samples may be prepared from a wafer or packaged die. In package form, the package is affixed to a polishing jig such that the backside of the die is oriented to face a polishing wheel. The package material is removed until die attach paddle and the backside of the die are exposed. The material is further removed until a selected thinness of the die is obtained. If the package's leadframe or a portion thereof remains after the removal of package material, a suitable testing fixture is attached thereto. If the leadframe is sacrificed, wire spots on the polished side of the semiconductor die are wire-to-wire bonded to a second leadframe's conductive fingers. In wafer form, the die is separated and encapsulated with a suitable substantially rigid material to form a substantially rigid body that is affixed to the polishing jig. |
