[0041] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and beneficial effects of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0042] The chip manufacturing process goes through a variety of process steps. For example, a single-crystal silicon wafer goes through deposition / lithography / etching / implantation / interconnection process steps in a wafer factory to manufacture integrated circuits in a wafer, which includes multiple chips (dies). Wafer testing CP (Chip Probing), that is, wafer-level testing, marks good and bad dies separately and sends them to the packaging factory for good die packaging operations, that is, packaging them into chips. The chips will also undergo final product testing (Final Test, FT) and system-level testing (System Level Test, SLT) to distinguish good and bad chips (FT is code-level testing, SLT is system-level testing, which is closer to real customer applications).

[0043] Chip ATE is a device used for automated testing in chip testing. It is a device used to perform various tests on chips, such as functional testing, electrical performance testing, reliability testing, etc. It can automatically execute test procedures and make judgments and records based on test results.

[0044] Chip ATE is mainly composed of a test host, a test head, a test program, a test fixture, etc. Among them, the test head is an interface device that connects the chip and the test host. It has a built-in test board and a test channel interface, which can provide a reliable electrical connection and provide test point switching and signal processing functions; the test fixture is a device used to support and fix the chip and the test head, which can provide a stable electrical connection and mechanical support to ensure the accuracy and reliability of the test. During the test, the chip needs to be placed in the adapter, which is part of the test fixture and can ensure a stable electrical connection between the chip and the test head. Therefore, the test head is fixed to the adapter and connected to the test host to establish the entire test system.

[0045] For chip testing, batch testing is usually used, which requires a group of chips to be installed on an adapter and connected to a test head. The number of resources required for a group of chips to be tested simultaneously is the same. Moreover, corresponding resources, such as channel resources, are usually allocated to each chip in sequence.

[0046] In order to prevent some operational errors (such as wiring connection errors) that occur during the process from having adverse effects on the test results, an embodiment of the present invention provides a resource error-proofing method and device for chip testing, which numbers the chips to be tested in the test group, and sets asymmetric resources corresponding to each chip to be tested in sequence, and performs connectivity tests on the chips to be tested on the test station based on the set asymmetric resources; if the test results of a test station are fixedly invalid, it can be determined that there is a connection error.

[0047] like Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of a resource fool-proofing method for chip testing provided by an embodiment of the present invention, comprising the following steps:

[0048] Step 101, numbering the test stations in the test group, and sequentially setting asymmetric resources corresponding to each test station, so that the test machine tests the chip to be tested according to the asymmetric resources to determine whether there is a connection error.

[0049] The asymmetric resources refer to that the resources allocated to each test station are not arranged in a regular sequence, but have certain intervals or different sequences.

[0050] In a specific implementation, the asymmetric resource may be in various specific forms, such as:

[0051] In some embodiments, different test resources may be staggered and allocated to each test station in sequence according to the sequence of the test resources and the number of the test station. For example, the same number of channels may be staggered and allocated to each test station in sequence, one or more channels may be staggered, the staggering may be in an increasing or decreasing manner, or in a disordered order, or in a staggering manner of exchanging two resources, etc.

[0052] In other embodiments, different peripheral circuits may be designed for different test stations, for example, resistors with different resistance values ​​may be connected in series to the interfaces of the same pins of different test stations. For example, the resistance values ​​of the resistors connected in series may increase or decrease in sequence according to the sequence number of the test stations.

[0053] Accordingly, when conducting the test, the following steps may also be included:

[0054] Step 102, after placing all the chips to be tested in the test group on corresponding test stations of the test board in sequence and connecting machine test resources to interfaces of each test station, the chips to be tested are tested according to the set asymmetric resources.

[0055] Step 103: If the test result of a test station is fixedly invalid, it is determined that there is a connection error.

[0056] The fixed failure means that the test results of multiple chips under test placed in the test station are all failed. This situation indicates that the connection of the test station is wrong, rather than the failure of the chip under test.

[0057] In other non-limiting embodiments, the serial number of the test station where the test result is fixed and invalid can also be indicated so that the staff can correct the corresponding connection error in time to avoid the test result error caused by the operation error.

[0058] The following example illustrates the principle of implementing fool-proofing by allocating asymmetric resources to each chip under test.

[0059] Example 1: According to the order of test resources and the number of test stations, different test resources are staggeredly allocated to each test station.

[0060] like Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the total number of channel resources of the selected machine is N, and there are m test sites, N>m, each site needs N / m ATE test machine channel resources, and m chips are tested at the same time each time, that is, there are m chips in each test group. Assume that each cable has N / m resources, and take N as an example that is divisible by m.

[0061] In the prior art, channel resources of an ATE test machine are usually allocated to each site in sequence, that is, cable 1 corresponds to site 1, cable 2 corresponds to site 2, and so on, that is, each cable corresponds to a different site.

[0062] According to the above resource allocation method, the channel (CH) resources of site1 are from channel 1 to channel N / m, the channel resources of site2 are from N / m+1 to channel 2×(N / m), the channel resources of site3 are from 2×(N / m)+1 to channel 3×(N / m), and so on.

[0063] Taking the 4-site hardware based on a certain machine as an example, a digital board has 128 channel resources. Using two digital boards, each site can be allocated 64 channel resources. According to the normal ATE test machine resource allocation, each cable has 64 channel resources, such as Figure 3 shown.

[0064] If the operator makes a mistake in cable operation, for example, cable 1 and cable 2 are plugged in reverse, that is, cable 1 should be plugged into the interface of site 1, but it is actually plugged into the interface of site 2; and cable 2 should be plugged into the interface of site 2, but it is actually plugged into the interface of site 1. Figure 4 shown.

[0065] On the machine side, since the test result is determined based on the allocation of its channel resources, the corresponding site is determined, that is, the chip on the site is determined to be good or defective based on the test result.

[0066] If the wiring is correct, follow Figure 3 The connection relationship shown in the figure can accurately match the test results corresponding to each cable to the actual chip. For example, if the test result corresponding to cable 1 is abnormal and the test result corresponding to cable 2 is normal, it is determined that the chip on site 1 is defective and the chip on site 2 is good, then the tester will transfer the chip on site 1 to the defective column.

[0067] If the connection is incorrect, follow Figure 4 In the connection relationship shown, assuming that the test result corresponding to cable 1 is abnormal and the test result corresponding to cable 2 is normal, since the test machine cannot identify the connection error, it will still determine that the chip on site 1 is invalid and the chip on site 2 is valid. According to the test result, the chip on site 1 will be removed. However, due to the connection error, cable 1 actually corresponds to the chip on site 2, and cable 2 corresponds to the chip on site 1. The truly defective chip is the chip on site 2, while the chip on site 1 is a good product.

[0068] Obviously, according to the existing resource allocation method, the failed chips on site 1 will be mixed into the good products, causing mixing and misplacement, resulting in serious quality accidents.

[0069] By using the solution of the present invention, different test resources are sequentially allocated to each chip to be tested, for example, each resource is allocated sequentially by using an intermediate staggered method. Figure 3 The 4-site hardware based on a certain machine is shown as an example. A digital board has 128 channel resources. By using two digital boards, each site can be allocated 64 channel resources.

[0070] Example 2: According to the order of channels and the number of test stations, the same number of channels are staggered and allocated to each test station in sequence. The number of channels allocated in staggered manner can be decreasing or increasing in sequence, for example, decreasing or increasing one or more channels each time.

[0071] for example Figure 5 As shown in the figure, the channel resources allocated to site 1 are CH 0 to 63; then, one channel is separated, namely CH 64, and channel resources CH 65 to 127 are allocated to site 2; then, two channels are separated, namely CH 128 and CH 129, and channel resources CH 130 to 191 are allocated to site 3; then, three channels are separated, namely CH 192, CH 193 and CH 194, and channel resources CH 195 to 255 are allocated to site 4.

[0072] according to Figure 5 In the channel resource allocation method shown, when the chip is connected to the connectivity test, since the first ATE tester resource (i.e., CH 64) of cable2 is not connected to the chip, the pins connecting the chip on site2 and CH 64 cannot be tested.

[0073] If the connection is wrong, such as Figure 6 As shown, cable 1 and cable 2 are plugged in reverse, cable 1 is connected to site 2, and cable 2 is connected to site 1. Since the first ATE tester resource of cable 2 is not connected to the chip, during the connectivity test, the connectivity test of the pin of site 1 that was originally connected to the first resource of cable 1 fails. Therefore, it can be determined that there is a connection error, and the error can be located to site 1. The operator can correct the connection error based on the error location.

[0074] It should be noted that the unused resources can still be used normally. Figure 7As shown in the figure, the channel resources allocated to site 1 are CH 0 to 63; then one channel is separated, namely CH 64, and channel resources CH 65 to 127 and CH 64 are allocated to site 2; then two channels are separated, namely CH 128 and CH 129, and channel resources CH 130 to 191, CH 128, and CH 129 are allocated to site 3; then three channels are separated, namely CH 192, CH 193, and CH 194, and channel resources CH 195 to 255, CH 192, CH 193, and CH 194 are allocated to site 4. Therefore, each test station can use 64 resources, and the order of resource allocation can be disrupted.

[0075] according to Figure 7 The channel resource allocation method shown is that when performing specific tests on the chip, if the connection is correct, the chip pins corresponding to all channels can be tested.

[0076] If the connection is wrong, such as Figure 8 As shown, cable 1 and cable 2 are plugged in reverse, cable 1 is connected to site 2, and cable 2 is connected to site 1. When performing a specific test, the pin of site 1 that was originally connected to the first resource of cable 1 (actually connected to CH65) will fail the test, thereby confirming that there is a connection error and locating the error to site 1. The operator can correct the connection error based on the error location.

[0077] It should be noted that the specific test here is not limited to the connectivity test. For example, in some embodiments, specific signals, such as clock signals and data signals, can be sent to the chip to enable the chip to implement specific functions and detect whether the corresponding pins of the chip correctly output the expected signals, so as to determine whether there is a plug-in error.

[0078] In addition, setting asymmetric resources corresponding to each chip under test is not limited to the above-mentioned channel resources, and other resources can also be used. This is explained with reference to Example 3 below.

[0079] Example 3: Channel resources are allocated in sequence, and resistors of different resistance values ​​are connected in series to the interfaces of the same pins at different test stations.

[0080] Since the interfaces with the same pins at different test stations are connected in series with resistors of different resistance values, when the chip is tested, the voltage signals corresponding to the interfaces with the same pins at different test stations will be different, which can also be used to determine whether there is a plug-in error.

[0081] According to the serial numbers of the test stations, the resistance values ​​of the resistors connected in series may increase or decrease in sequence, or may change randomly, which is not limited in this embodiment of the present invention.

[0082] like Fig. 9 As shown, it is assumed that the chips on three test stations site1 to site3 are tested at the same time. Each chip needs to test two ports. One port of site1 is connected in series with a resistor R11, the corresponding port of site2 is connected in series with a resistor R21, and the corresponding port of site3 is connected in series with a resistor R31. <R21<R31。

[0083] When plugged in correctly, Fig. 9 As shown, the same current is applied to the ports of each site at the same time, then the port voltage of the CH1 channel detected by the test machine should be smaller than the port voltage of the CH3 channel, and the port voltage of the CH3 channel should be smaller than the port voltage of the CH5 channel.

[0084] If the connection is wrong, such as cable 1 and cable 2 are plugged in reverse, Fig.10 As shown, at this time, the port voltage of the CH1 channel detected by the test machine is greater than the port voltage of the CH3 channel, so it can be determined that there is a connection error, and the error can be located to site1 and site2. The operator can correct the connection error based on the error location.

[0085] The resource error-proofing method for chip testing provided in the embodiment of the present invention only requires the hardware ATE test machine resource definition to be completed during hardware design, and the asymmetric resources corresponding to each chip to be tested are set in sequence. By performing corresponding tests on the chip to be tested, it can be determined whether there are connection errors, thereby achieving an error-proofing effect.

[0086] Accordingly, an embodiment of the present invention also provides a resource foolproof device for chip testing, such as Fig.11 Shown is a structural schematic diagram of the device.

[0087] The chip test resource foolproof device 110 includes a resource allocation module 111 and a plurality of test stations, such as Fig.11 The test stations 1 to n shown in FIG. Where:

[0088] The test station is used to sequentially place the chips to be tested in the test group;

[0089] The resource allocation module 111 is used to number the test stations in the test group and sequentially set asymmetric resources corresponding to each test station, so that the test machine tests the chip to be tested according to the asymmetric resources to determine whether there is a connection error.

[0090] Among them, there can be many ways for the resource allocation module 111 to allocate asymmetric resources to each chip to be tested. For example, the same number of channels can be staggered and allocated to each chip to be tested in sequence according to the order of the channels and the numbers of the chips to be tested. For details, please refer to the description in the embodiment of the resource fool-proofing method for chip testing of the previous invention, which will not be repeated here.

[0091] Accordingly, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a chip testing system, such as Fig.12 As shown, the system includes: a testing machine 120 and the resource foolproofing device 110 .

[0092] The resource foolproof device 110 is used to sequentially place the chips to be tested in the test group, number the test stations in the test group, and sequentially set asymmetric resources corresponding to each test station.

[0093] The testing machine 120 includes a testing module 1201 and an inspection module 1202 .

[0094] In addition, the test machine 120 may have multiple test interfaces, each test interface is connected to a test line, and each test line corresponds to multiple channels.

[0095] When testing a chip to be tested, a chip to be tested is placed in each test station, and the interface of each test station can be connected to one or more test lines. Fig.12 The dotted lines in the figure represent interfaces for connecting the test lines of the test machine 120 to each test station according to the asymmetric resources set by the resource foolproofing device 110 .

[0096] The test module 1201 is used to test the chips to be tested after placing all the chips to be tested on the corresponding test stations in sequence and connecting the test lines of the machine to the interfaces of each test station. The test module 1201 may test the chips to be tested by a connectivity test or a test of controlling the chip to achieve a specific output, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present invention.

[0097] The checking module 1202 is used to determine whether there is a connection error when the test result of a test station is fixedly invalid.

[0098] In some embodiments, the test machine 120 may further include: a display module for indicating the serial number of the test station whose test result is fixedly invalid.

[0099] Using this chip testing system, not only can you easily and conveniently determine whether there is a connection error, but you can also automatically locate the test station where the test interface is incorrectly connected, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the test results and effectively avoiding the misplacement or misplacement of the chip.

[0100] The chip testing system does not require additional hardware devices and additional software processing, and can simply and conveniently automatically locate the chip with the wrong test interface docking, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the test results and effectively avoiding the misplacement or misplacement of the chip.

[0101] The embodiment of the present invention further discloses a storage medium, which is a computer-readable storage medium, on which a computer program is stored, and when the computer program is run, the steps of the method shown in the above embodiment can be executed. The storage medium may include a read-only memory (ROM), a random access memory (RAM), a disk or an optical disk, etc. The storage medium may also include a non-volatile memory (non-volatile) or a non-transitory memory, etc.
