METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR AUTOMATED WAFER LEVEL TESTING AND RELIABILITY DATA ANALYSIS

摘要

Methods and apparatus are disclosed for testing integrated circuits at the wafer level and for integrating test results, calculation of lifetimes and generation of trend charts in a common data base following testing. A wafer tester controller is supplemented with additional hardware and software to avoid data transfer errors and facilitate processing and storage of test results. The data base is available over a network to all areas of an organization.
