[0037] Ultrasonic ranging chip refers to a chip designed using the ToF measurement principle. With the rapid development and application of robots, smart homes, and portable devices, micro-ranging technology has become increasingly important. Compared with traditional radar ranging, laser ranging, infrared ranging and other technical paths, ultrasonic ranging has the advantages of not being affected by the transparency and color of the target object, being insensitive to environmental noise, and having low power consumption.

[0038] At present, there are two technical difficulties in ultrasonic chip wafer-level testing: on the one hand, wafer-level testing has many chips densely connected to each other on the same wafer. When the chip to be tested emits ultrasonic waves, other chips on the same wafer are physically connected to the chip to be tested, and other ultrasonic chips will also resonate, thereby generating background noise and affecting the test results; on the other hand, the chip to be tested itself will have a certain amount of background noise in the air, which will also affect the test results. In addition, the probe card for ultrasonic chip wafer-level testing is also different in structure from the probe card for conventional chip testing, and requires additional design and production of reflective baffles.

[0039] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present application proposes a testing method for wafer-level ultrasonic chips. When a removable baffle is not provided at a preset distance from the needle tip plane of the probe on the probe card, the first echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested is measured, where the first echo peak-to-peak value is the peak-to-peak value of the air echo of the chip to be tested. The probe is connected to the chip to be tested, and the probe card is connected to the tester through a cable. When a removable baffle is provided at a preset distance from the needle tip plane of the probe on the probe card, the second echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested at the removable baffle is measured. According to the second echo peak-to-peak value and the first echo peak-to-peak value, as well as the preset peak-to-peak value design parameters, the echo peak-to-peak value test result of the chip to be tested is determined, and the echo peak-to-peak value test result is used to indicate the ranging capability of the chip to be tested, thereby improving the accuracy of wafer-level ultrasonic chip testing.

[0040] For ease of understanding, the technical solution of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0041] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the architecture of a wafer-level ultrasonic chip testing system provided in one embodiment of the present application is shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the wafer-level ultrasonic chip testing system 100 includes a probe card 110 and a tester 120 . The probe card 110 is provided with a probe 111 and a detachable baffle 112 disposed at a preset distance from the tip plane of the probe 111 .

[0042] Specifically, the probe card 110 is a medium for connecting the chip to be tested and the tester 120 , on which the peripheral circuits required for testing the chip to be tested are designed. The probes 111 contact the pin pads on the chip to be tested and are connected to the tester 120 using cables.

[0043] As an example, a physical diagram of the probe card 110 can be found in Figure 2 The schematic diagram of the peripheral circuit of the probe card 110 can be found in Figure 3 .

[0044] Specifically, the tester 120 is used to perform direct current (DC) parameter test and echo peak-to-peak test on the chip to be tested, wherein the DC parameter test includes open-short (OS) test and static current test.

[0045] As an example, the tester 120 uses the Chroma 3380P tester, which is a digital-analog hybrid tester, including multiplex bus (MXBUS), multiplex logic pin control (MXLPC), multiplex AWI2 (MXAWI2), multiplex pulse generator 3 (MXPG3) and other boards. The MXBUS board is usually used to provide signals for controlling relays; the pin precision measurement unit (PPMU) and precision measurement unit (PMU) resources on the MXLPC board can perform operations such as adding current to measure pressure, adding pressure to measure current, etc. The main difference between PPMU and PMU is the different test accuracy and range; the time measurement unit (TMU) tests frequency and time-related parameters; the MXAWI2 board provides a waveform generator (WG) mode and a waveform digitizer (WD) mode. In WG mode, the tester can send a sine wave with a preset frequency. In WD mode, the tester can sample the echo of the sine wave. For example, the fastest sending and sampling rate is 50 nanoseconds (ns).

[0046] Exemplarily, the tester 120 uses the PPMU on the MXLPC board to perform a DC parameter test on the chip under test, and uses the WG mode and the WD mode on the MXAWI2 board to perform an echo peak-to-peak value test on the chip under test.

[0047] In a possible implementation, the wafer-level ultrasonic chip testing system 100 further includes a probe station, which is used to place the wafer on which the chip to be tested is located, and to accurately move the wafer so that the chip to be tested contacts the probe 111 .

[0048] Understandably, Figure 1The system architecture shown is only an example of the wafer-level ultrasonic chip test system provided by the present application. In other embodiments of the present application, the wafer-level ultrasonic chip test system 100 may include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or combine some components, or split some components, or arrange the components differently. The components shown in the figure may be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of software and hardware, and the present application does not limit this.

[0049] Figure 4 A flow chart of a method for testing a wafer-level ultrasonic chip provided in an embodiment of the present application. For ease of explanation, only the part related to the present embodiment is shown. The method provided in the present embodiment is applied to Figure 1 The wafer-level ultrasonic chip testing system 100 shown is executed by a tester 120. The method provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:

[0050] S410, when no removable baffle is provided at a preset distance from the needle tip plane of the probe on the probe card, the first echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested is measured, the first echo peak-to-peak value is the peak-to-peak value of the air echo of the chip to be tested, the probe is connected to the chip to be tested, and the probe card is connected to the tester through a cable.

[0051] Specifically, wafer testing is between wafer manufacturing and packaging in the entire chip production process. It tests every chip on the entire wafer. The chip to be tested is an ultrasonic chip connected to a probe among multiple chips on the wafer.

[0052] In a specific implementation, a removable baffle is not provided at a preset distance from the probe tip plane on the probe card, and the WG mode and WD mode in the MXAWI2 board are used to measure the first echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested. Since a removable baffle is not provided at the preset position on the probe card at this time, the measured first echo peak-to-peak value is the peak-to-air echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested. The peak-to-air echo peak-to-peak value indicates the background noise generated by the resonance of other chips on the same wafer with the chip to be tested, as well as the background noise of the chip to be tested itself.

[0053] Preferably, the preset distance is 6 centimeters (cm).

[0054] S420, in a case where a detachable baffle plate which is at a preset distance from a probe tip plane is provided on the probe card, measuring a peak value of a second echo of the chip to be tested at the detachable baffle plate.

[0055] In a specific implementation, when a removable baffle is provided on the probe card at a preset distance from the needle tip plane of the probe, the WG mode and WD mode in the MXAWI2 board are used to measure the second echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested at the removable baffle, that is, the echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested at the preset position.

[0056] It should be noted that the present application does not limit the execution order of S210 and S220, that is, the first echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested can be measured first, and then the second echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested can be measured; or the second echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested can be measured first, and then the first echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested can be measured.

[0057] S430, determining an echo peak-to-peak value test result of the chip to be tested according to the second echo peak-to-peak value and the first echo peak-to-peak value, as well as preset peak-to-peak value design parameters, wherein the echo peak-to-peak value test result is used to indicate the ranging capability of the chip to be tested.

[0058] Specifically, different types of chips to be tested correspond to different preset peak-to-peak value design parameters, the preset peak-to-peak value design parameters include a preset range of the echo peak-to-peak value, and the echo peak-to-peak value test results include pass and fail.

[0059] In the specific implementation, the preset peak-to-peak value design parameters corresponding to the chip to be tested are first determined, and then the second echo peak-to-peak value and the first echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested obtained by measuring are compared with the preset peak-to-peak value design parameters corresponding to the chip to be tested to determine the echo peak-to-peak value test result of the chip to be tested.

[0060] The technical solution provided in this embodiment measures the first echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested when no detachable baffle is provided at a preset distance from the probe tip plane on the probe card, the first echo peak-to-peak value is the peak-to-peak value of the air echo of the chip to be tested, the probe is connected to the chip to be tested, and the probe card is connected to the tester through a flat cable; when a detachable baffle is provided at a preset distance from the probe tip plane on the probe card, the second echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested at the detachable baffle is measured; according to the second echo peak-to-peak value and the first echo peak-to-peak value, as well as the preset peak-to-peak value design parameters, the echo peak-to-peak value test result of the chip to be tested is determined. Since the influence of the air echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested is taken into account when measuring the echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested, that is, the influence of the background noise generated by the chip resonance and the background noise of the chip itself to the air is taken into account, rather than just measuring the echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested at the preset distance to determine the test result, the technical solution provided in this application can improve the accuracy of wafer-level ultrasonic chip testing.

[0061] On the basis of the above embodiment, this embodiment further illustrates and optimizes the technical solution. Specifically, in this embodiment, according to the peak-to-peak value of the second echo and the peak-to-peak value of the first echo, and the preset peak-to-peak value design parameters, the peak-to-peak value test result of the echo of the chip to be tested is determined, including:

[0062] Subtract the peak value of the second echo from the peak value of the first echo to obtain the peak value of the target echo;

[0063] Based on the target echo peak-to-peak value and the preset peak-to-peak value design parameters, the echo peak-to-peak value test result of the chip to be tested is determined.

[0064] In a specific implementation, the peak value of the second echo is subtracted from the peak value of the first echo to obtain a target echo peak value, which is the echo peak value corresponding to the preset position after eliminating the resonance background noise of other chips on the same wafer and the chip to be tested and the air background noise of the chip to be tested itself. The target echo peak value is then compared with the preset peak-to-peak value design parameters corresponding to the chip to be tested to determine the echo peak-to-peak value test result of the chip to be tested.

[0065] As an example, the preset peak-to-peak value design parameter corresponding to the chip to be tested is the echo peak-to-peak value preset range. When the target echo peak-to-peak value is within the echo peak-to-peak value preset range, the echo peak-to-peak value test result of the chip to be tested is determined to be passed; when the target echo peak-to-peak value is not within the echo peak-to-peak value preset range, the echo peak-to-peak value test result of the chip to be tested is determined to be failed.

[0066] The technical solution provided in this embodiment subtracts the second echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested from the first echo peak-to-peak value to obtain a target echo peak-to-peak value that eliminates the resonant background noise of other chips on the same wafer and the chip to be tested and the air background noise of the chip to be tested itself, and then determines the echo peak-to-peak value test result of the chip to be tested based on the comparison between the target echo peak-to-peak value and the preset peak-to-peak value design parameters, thereby improving the accuracy of the echo peak-to-peak value test.

[0067] Based on the above embodiment, this embodiment further illustrates and optimizes the technical solution. Specifically, in this embodiment, when no detachable baffle is provided at a preset distance from the needle tip plane of the probe on the probe card, the peak value of the first echo of the chip to be tested is measured, including:

[0068] Sending a sine wave of a preset frequency to the chip under test to determine the first main frequency of the chip under test;

[0069] Determine a single cycle time of the first waveform based on a first main frequency of the chip to be tested;

[0070] Based on a single cycle time of the first waveform, frequency acquisition is performed for a first preset acquisition number of times on the echo of the chip to be tested, to obtain a plurality of first frequency measurement values ​​corresponding to the first preset acquisition number of times;

[0071] Filtering out a first target frequency measurement value set from the plurality of first frequency measurement values, the first target frequency measurement value set including first frequency measurement values ​​corresponding to the echo at the preset distance from the plurality of first frequency measurement values;

[0072] Determining a first peak value and a first trough value based on the first target frequency measurement value set;

[0073] Based on the first wave peak value and the first wave trough value, a first echo peak-to-peak value is determined.

[0074] In the specific implementation, the preset frequency is 800 kilohertz (Khz), and the first preset number of acquisitions is 5 times. When a removable baffle is not set at the preset distance from the probe tip plane on the probe card, the WG mode of the MXAWI2 board is used to send an 800Khz sine wave to the chip under test, and the WD mode is used to measure the frequency of the echo of the sine wave from the chip under test 10 times to obtain 10 frequency measurement values, and these 10 frequency measurement values ​​are stored in the FREQ

[10] array, and the FREQ

[10] array is traversed to take out the mode and store it in the min variable, and the mode of the 10 frequency measurement values ​​is confirmed as the first main frequency of the chip under test; since the main frequency and the single cycle time of the waveform are reciprocal to each other, then based on the first main frequency of the chip under test, the single cycle time of the first waveform can be obtained; based on the single cycle time of the first waveform, the WD mode of the MXAWI2 board is used to measure the frequency of the echo of the sine wave from the chip under test 5 times, and each of the 5 measurements is captured 9 at an interval of 50ns. 000 times, 9000 first frequency measurement values ​​are obtained, and 5 groups of 9000 first frequency measurement values ​​are obtained in total from 5 measurements; since 6cm corresponds to an echo within the time range of 370us to 410us, the first frequency measurement values ​​of the 7400th to 8200th captures in each group of 9000 captures are screened out and stored in the data

[800] array, and 5 data

[800] arrays, i.e., the first target frequency measurement value sets, are obtained. Each data

Store the peak-to-peak value in each of the five data

[800] arrays in MAX_VALUE[5], traverse the MAX_VALUE[5] array, take out the maximum value as the peak-to-peak value of the first echo, and store it in the MAX_VALUE_final variable. Correspondingly, store the peak value corresponding to the peak-to-peak value of the first echo and the time point of the peak in MAX_VALUE3 and MAX_TIME3 respectively, and store the trough value corresponding to the peak-to-peak value of the first echo and the time point of the trough in MAX_VALUE4 and MAX_TIME4 respectively.

[0075] The technical solution provided in this embodiment, when measuring the first main frequency of the chip to be tested, due to the instability of the measured waveform, the first main frequency of the chip to be tested is determined by measuring the frequencies of the echo of the sine wave of the chip to be tested 10 times and taking the mode, thereby improving the accuracy of determining the first main frequency of the chip to be tested; when measuring the peak-to-peak value of the first echo of the chip to be tested, due to the relative stability of the echo of the chip to be tested in the empty state, the frequencies of the echo of the sine wave of the chip to be tested are only measured 5 times, thereby improving the efficiency of determining the peak-to-peak value of the first echo of the chip to be tested.

[0076] Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment further illustrates and optimizes the technical solution. Specifically, in this embodiment, when a detachable baffle with a preset distance from the probe tip plane is provided on the probe card, measuring the peak value of the second echo of the chip to be tested at the detachable baffle includes:

[0077] Sending a sine wave of a preset frequency to the chip under test to determine the second main frequency of the chip under test;

[0078] Determine a single cycle time of the second waveform based on a second main frequency of the chip to be tested;

[0079] Based on a single cycle time of the second waveform, frequency acquisition is performed for a second preset acquisition number of times on the echo of the chip to be tested, to obtain a plurality of second frequency measurement values ​​corresponding to the second preset acquisition number of times;

[0080] Filtering out a second target frequency measurement value set from the plurality of second frequency measurement values, the second target frequency measurement value set including second frequency measurement values ​​corresponding to the echo at the detachable baffle among the plurality of second frequency measurement values;

[0081] determining a second wave peak and a second wave trough based on the second target frequency measurement value set;

[0082] Based on the second echo peak value and the second echo trough value, a second echo peak-to-peak value is determined.

[0083] In a specific implementation, the preset frequency is 800Khz, and the second preset number of acquisition times is 50 times. When a removable baffle with a preset distance from the probe tip plane is provided on the probe card, the WG mode of the MXAWI2 board is used to send an 800Khz sine wave to the chip under test, and the WD mode is used to measure the frequency of the echo of the sine wave from the chip under test 10 times to obtain 10 frequency measurement values, and the 10 frequency measurement values ​​are stored in the FREQ

[10] array, the FREQ

[10] array is traversed, the mode thereof is taken out and stored in the min variable, and the mode of the 10 frequency measurement values ​​is confirmed as the second main frequency of the chip under test; since the main frequency and the single cycle time of the waveform are reciprocal to each other, the single cycle time of the second waveform can be obtained based on the second main frequency of the chip under test; based on the single cycle time of the second waveform, the WD mode of the MXAWI2 board is used to measure the frequency of the echo of the sine wave from the chip under test 50 times, and each measurement in the 50 measurements is captured 9000 times at an interval of 50ns to obtain 9000 second frequency measurement values, and a total of 50 measurements 50 groups of 9000 second frequency measurement values ​​are obtained. Since the removable baffle at a distance of 6 cm corresponds to an echo within the time range of 370us to 410us, the second frequency measurement values ​​of the 7400th to 8200th captures in each group of 9000 captures are stored in the data_6cm

[800] array, and a total of 50 data_6cm

[800] arrays, i.e., the second target frequency measurement value set, are obtained. Each of the 50 data_6cm

[800] arrays is traversed, the maximum value (i.e., the second wave peak value) is taken out and stored in the MAX_VALUE1_6cm

[50] array, the minimum value (i.e., the second wave trough value) is taken out and stored in the MAX_VALUE2_6cm

[50] array, the time point corresponding to the wave peak is stored in the MAX_TIME1_6cm

[50] array, and the time point corresponding to the wave trough is stored in the MAX_TIME2_6cm

[50] array. Store the peak-to-peak value of each of the 50 data_6cm

[800] arrays in MAX_VALUE_6cm

[50] , traverse the MAX_VALUE

[50] _6cm array, take out the maximum value as the peak-to-peak value of the second echo of the chip to be tested, and store it in the MAX_VALUE_final_6cm variable. Correspondingly, store the peak corresponding to the peak-to-peak value of the second echo and the time point of the peak in MAX_VALUE3_6cm and MAX_TIME3_6cm respectively, and store the trough corresponding to the peak-to-peak value of the second echo and the time point of the trough in MAX_VALUE4_6cm and MAX_TIME_6cm4 respectively.

[0084] The technical solution provided in this embodiment measures the peak-to-peak value of the second echo of the chip to be tested by measuring the frequency of the echo of the sine wave of the chip to be tested 50 times, because the echo of the chip to be tested at the 6 cm removable baffle is relatively unstable, thereby improving the accuracy of determining the peak-to-peak value of the second echo of the chip to be tested.

[0085] Figure 5 A flowchart of another wafer-level ultrasonic chip testing method provided in one embodiment of the present application. Figure 5 As shown, before measuring the peak-to-peak value of the first echo of the chip to be tested, the method further includes:

[0086] Conduct DC characteristic parameter test on the chip under test, including open-short circuit test and static current test;

[0087] When the DC characteristic parameter test of the chip to be tested passes, an operation of measuring the first echo peak-to-peak value or the second echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested is performed.

[0088] In the specific implementation, PPMU is first used to perform DC parameter tests such as open-short circuit test and static current test on the chip to be tested. If the DC parameter test of the chip to be tested fails, the test is stopped; when the DC parameter test of the chip to be tested passes, the echo peak-to-peak value test is performed, that is, the operation of measuring the first echo peak-to-peak value or the second echo peak-to-peak value of the chip to be tested is executed. If the echo peak-to-peak value test of the chip to be tested passes, the chip to be tested is qualified; if the echo peak-to-peak value test of the chip to be tested fails, the chip to be tested is unqualified.

[0089] The technical solution provided in this embodiment first performs a DC parameter test on the chip to be tested, and then performs an echo peak value test after the DC parameter test passes. This can detect defective chips as early as possible and terminate the test in time, shortening the test time and improving the efficiency of chip testing.

[0090] Based on the above embodiment, this embodiment further illustrates and optimizes the technical solution. Specifically, in this embodiment, a DC characteristic parameter test is performed on the chip to be tested, including:

[0091] When the voltage of other pins of the chip under test except the pin under test is a first voltage value, a pin precision measurement unit is used to provide a current of a preset intensity for the pin under test, where the pin under test is a pin of the chip under test connected to the probe;

[0092] Use the pin precision measurement unit to measure the target voltage value of the pin to be tested;

[0093] Based on the target voltage value, the open and short circuit test result of the chip to be tested is determined, and the open and short circuit test result is used to indicate the connectivity of the pin to be tested.

[0094] Specifically, the OS test is used to confirm that all signal pins are electrically connected to the corresponding channels of the test system when the chip under test is tested, and no signal pin is short-circuited with other signal pins, power supply or ground. The OS test performs an open and short circuit check on the input and output (IO) pins of the chip under test when the chip under test is not powered on.

[0095] In a possible implementation, the first voltage value is 0 volt (V), the preset intensity is -100 microamperes (uA), and the connectivity test between the pin to be tested and the ground or other pins is tested.

[0096] In the specific implementation, Figure 6 As shown, PPMU is used to set the voltages of all pins of the chip under test except the pin to be tested to 0V; a current of -100uA is provided to the pin to be tested; the target voltage value on the pin to be tested is measured; when the target voltage value is around -0.7V or within the range of (-1.5V, -0.2V), it is determined that the pin to be tested is in good contact with the tester and the probe card, and that the pin to be tested itself does not have any open circuit or short circuit to the power pin, ground pin or other IO pin; if the target voltage value is a large negative voltage, for example, less than -1.5V, it means that the pin to be tested has an open circuit to the ground; if the target voltage value is close to 0V or greater than -0.2V, it means that the pin to be tested is short-circuited to the power pin, ground pin, or other IO pin.

[0097] In another possible implementation, the first voltage value is 0V, the preset intensity is +100uA, and the connectivity between the chip under test and the VDD pin or other pins is tested.

[0098] In the specific implementation, Figure 7 As shown, PPMU is used to set the voltages of all pins except the pin to be tested in the chip to 0V; a +100uA current is provided to the pin to be tested; the target voltage value on the pin to be tested is measured; when the target voltage value is around 0.7V or within the range of (0.2V, 1.5V), it is determined that the pin to be tested is in good contact with the tester and the probe card, and that the pin to be tested itself does not have any open circuit or short circuit to the power pin, ground pin or other IO pin; if the target voltage value is a large positive voltage, for example, greater than 1.5V, it means that the pin to be tested has an open circuit fault to the corresponding power pin; if the target voltage value is close to 0V or less than 0.2V, it means that the pin to be tested is short-circuited to the power pin, ground pin or other IO pin.

[0099] The technical solution provided in this embodiment uses a pin precision measurement unit to complete the open and short circuit test in the DC parameter test, tests the connectivity of the pin to be tested, and improves the accuracy of chip detection.

[0100] Based on the above embodiment, this embodiment further illustrates and optimizes the technical solution. Specifically, in this embodiment, a DC characteristic parameter test is performed on the chip to be tested, including:

[0101] Use the pin precision measurement unit to control the chip under test to enter low power consumption mode;

[0102] When the chip under test enters low power mode, measure the target current value flowing into the drain power supply voltage VDD pin;

[0103] Based on the target current value, a static current test result of the chip under test is determined, and the static current test result is used to indicate the static power consumption of the chip under test.

[0104] Specifically, the static current test usually presets the chip under test to a specific state, such as low power mode or sleep mode, and then measures the current flowing into the VDD pin, and compares the measured value with the preset parameters to determine whether the chip under test is normal.

[0105] In the specific implementation, PPMU is used to provide 3.3V voltage to the VDD pin of the chip under test, so that the chip under test enters low power consumption mode; the target current value flowing into the VDD pin is measured; the preset range of the static current is set to (-0.5uA, 10uA), when the target current value is within the preset range of the static current, the static current test result of the chip under test is passed; when the target current value is not within the preset range of the static current, the static current test result of the chip under test is failed.

[0106] The technical solution provided in this embodiment uses PPMU to complete the static current test in the DC parameter test, tests the static power consumption of the chip to be tested, and improves the accuracy of chip detection.
