Tester simultaneous test method
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of integrated circuit (IC) testing method, be meant a kind of tester simultaneous test method especially.
Background technology
In the semiconductor test industry, existing logic test equipment is generally all fixed with quantitation and is fewer, general logic tester can only can be tested simultaneously to 2 to 4 chips, and owing to adopt the simultaneous test method of system default, the test vector of each chip must be identical, the test underaction.
Test macro has the two large divisions to produce by test vector, i.e. algorithm vector generator (ALPG) and order vector generator (SQPG).When writing test procedure,, produce logical value jointly by two generators and be passed to Frame Handler generation resolution chart as long as above-mentioned two generators are write test vector at a chip.As long as when needs carry out with survey, tell system several with surveying, need not special in addition the programming, system just can carry out 2 to 4 with surveying on the test channel of appointment.But this technical disadvantages is few with surveying number, and test vector is dumb.
Therefore, in this technical field, need a kind of tester simultaneous test method, improve same quantitation, and can adjust arbitrarily as required with measuring.
Summary of the invention
The technical problem to be solved in the present invention provides a kind of tester simultaneous test method, and it can improve homonymy quantity, and can adjust arbitrarily as required with measuring.
For solving the problems of the technologies described above, tester simultaneous test method of the present invention, the first step: error handler, set a plurality of chip simultaneous tests and test as a chip; Second step: the algorithm vector generator is assigned to a signal that produces the test channel of a plurality of chips by the programmable data selector switch; The 3rd step: the order vector generator expands to the test vector of a chip by setting program the test channel of a plurality of chips; The 4th step: obtain the test result of all test channel, described test channel is divided into groups according to different channel address, judges that according to the result of described channel packet whether qualified each chip is.
The present invention breaks the very few restriction of the tester simultaneous quantitation of original higher-order logic, make and have only 2 logic testers of surveying together can bring up to 64 with surveying originally with quantitation, and can adjust same quantitation arbitrarily as required, simultaneously, it is many to give full play to higher-order logic tester test channel, the measuring accuracy height, the advantage that test frequency is high.
In addition, the test to each chip can control to the vectorial different, more convenient of each test channel output.
Description of drawings
The present invention is further detailed explanation below in conjunction with accompanying drawing and embodiment.
Accompanying drawing is a tester simultaneous test connection diagram of the present invention.
Embodiment
When the test frequency high product, the tester of general low side can't be realized, simultaneously, product has complicated logic function test must need powerful SQPG test function again, at this moment also can't be competent at the more memory test instrument of quantitation, therefore, must use some high-end logic testers, but this type of logic tester is general fewer with surveying number, has only 2 to 4 with surveying.
Can realize that by the present invention this series products is carried out the greater number chip to be tested simultaneously, its method is as follows:
The first step: at first, need make amendment to error handler, needs are tested as a chip with all chips of surveying, can directly obtain the test result of all test channel through test, as long as all are no more than the total test channel number of tester with the pin of surveying chip, can increase same quantitation as much as possible.
Second step:, realize many chip simultaneous tests of ALPG to need by PDS (programmable data selector switch) linking functions the logical value that ALPG produces being connected on the test channel of a plurality of chips by the test channel of ALPG generation in the test vector.As shown in drawings, on the test channel of PDS with signal allocation to two chip of ALPG generation.
The 3rd step: to the test channel that need produce by SQPG (sequential vector generator) in the test vector, by software the test vector of an original chip is expanded to a plurality of chip testing passages, as shown in drawings, the SQPG test signal that directly produces two chips is connected respectively on the corresponding test channel.Then with all passages defining by a chip.
The 4th step: all passages are divided into groups according to different channel address, according to not on the same group in the test result of test channel judge that each chip is qualified and defective.
