Known Good Die已知合格裸片
A known good die is an unpackaged semiconductor die that has been tested and verified to meet electrical specifications before being assembled into a package or module. In translation and localization, the term appears in procurement specifications, assembly work instructions, quality agreements, multi-chip module design documents, supply-chain traceability records, and documentation for stacked-die or heterogeneous integration projects and final system assembly flows.

Where this term appears
Translators see known-good-die in die-level supply agreements, wafer probe data summaries, and multi-die assembly instructions. The abbreviation KGD is common in source text and must be expanded on first use. In quality documents, the term helps distinguish tested bare die from untested die or package-level tested devices.
Translation checks
A common mistake is translating known-good-die as '已知好的芯片' or merging it with good die without the verification nuance. In supply-chain and assembly documents, this can cause confusion about whether testing occurred before shipment. It may also be abbreviated without expansion, leaving readers unsure whether KGD refers to wafer-probe results or package test.
Keep the term aligned across your files
Technical terms need checking against the source, approved product terminology and related specifications. Keep units, parameter conditions and document versions aligned across the file set.
Provide approved terms and previous translations with the source files. Agree how variants, ambiguous wording and revisions will be reviewed. Terminology maintenance and any termbase handback are confirmed in the project scope. See the 8-step AI + expert workflow.
