[0023] As described in the background section, electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection components are crucial for protecting electronic components from electrostatic damage. In order to reduce losses caused by ESD interference in electronic components, it is imperative to improve the reliability of ESD protection components.

[0024] Existing testing methods for ESD protection components mainly rely on manual clamping, using test clamps to clamp the pins of the ESD protection component one by one for testing. This testing method is inefficient and cumbersome. In addition to clamping each pin for testing, it usually has some problems, such as the pins being easily damaged when using test clamps to connect the device, or the test clamps not making a tight contact with the device pins, resulting in low test accuracy.

[0025] Based on this, this application proposes a testing fixture, testing method and related apparatus for electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection components to avoid damage to the pins of ESD protection components during testing, and to avoid the problem of decreased ESD due to loose connection with the pins of ESD protection components. This is beneficial to improving the testing efficiency of ESD protection components and also to improving the testing accuracy.

[0026] The embodiments of this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] In some embodiments, a test fixture for electrostatic discharge protection components, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, including Test sub-board 10 is used to connect to the electrostatic protection component under test; The test motherboard 20 includes a connection circuit 21 and a switchable circuit 22, both of which are connected to the test daughterboard 10 to connect to the electrostatic protection element under test through the test daughterboard 10. The test system 30 includes a control port, a connection port, and a test port. The connection port is connected to the electrostatic discharge protection device under test (ESD device) through the connection circuit 21. The test port is connected to the ESD device under test through the switchable circuit 22. The control port is connected to the switchable circuit 22 to control the switching of the switchable circuit 22. The test system 30 coordinates the control port, connection port, and test port to perform tests on the electrostatic protection component under test.

[0028] Specifically, the test sub-board 10 is provided with a groove adapted to the electrostatic discharge (ESD) component under test (ESD), so that when the ESD component under test is located in the groove, it can be connected to the test sub-board 10. That is, the pins of the ESD component under test are in contact with the test sub-board 10, which can avoid the problem of pin clamping and damage caused by the connection of the ESD component under test. It can also simplify the connection method of the ESD component under test and save the connection time between the ESD component under test and the test fixture.

[0029] The test motherboard 20 is connected to the electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection element under test (ESDPE) via the test daughterboard 10, which facilitates the connection of the connection circuit 21 and the switchable circuit 22 to the ESDPE protection element under test. Furthermore, the test system 30 is connected to the connection circuit 21 and the switchable circuit 22 to connect to the ESDPE protection element under test. At the same time, it can control the on / off state of the switchable circuit 22 to achieve coordinated testing of various parameters of the ESDPE protection element under test, which helps to improve testing efficiency.

[0030] It should be noted that the setup of the test fixture can avoid clamping the test system 30 to the electrostatic protection component under test when testing the component under test, thus avoiding test result errors caused by connection errors (such as loose clamping), thereby improving test accuracy. Furthermore, the setup cost of the test sub-board 10 and test mother board 20 in the test fixture is low, which is conducive to application and promotion.

[0031] In addition, the test system 30 can control the output electrical signals of the control port, connection port and test port based on preset rules, thereby realizing the testing of various parameters of the electrostatic protection component under test.

[0032] In this embodiment, the testing fixture includes a test sub-board 10 for connecting to the electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection element under test (ESD), a test motherboard 20 connected to the test sub-board 10 via a connection circuit 21 and a switchable circuit 22, and a test system 30 connected to the ESD protection element under test via the test motherboard 20. The test system 30 controls the on / off state of the switchable circuit 22 on the test motherboard 20 by controlling the output electrical signal of its control port. Based on this, the test system 30 controls the electrical signals of the connection port and the test port to test different parameters of the ESD protection element under test. This avoids manually changing the connection relationship between the testing instrument and the ESD protection element to test different parameters of the ESD protection element, which helps to improve the testing efficiency of the ESD protection element and save labor costs.

[0033] In some embodiments, the electrostatic discharge protection element under test includes a first end, a second end, and at least one test point. The test sub-board 10 includes a first connection end, a second connection end, and at least one test end. The first connection end is used to connect to the first end, the second connection end is used to connect to the second end, and the at least one test end is connected to the at least one test point in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0034] Specifically, the number of test points is related to the number of channels in the electrostatic discharge protection element under test that are connected in parallel with the TVS. That is, each channel includes two low-capacitance diodes, and the test points are located between the two low-capacitance diodes corresponding to each channel, so as to realize the testing of the two low-capacitance diodes in each channel.

[0035] Specifically, the electrostatic discharge protection device under test includes a TVS diode and eight low-capacitance diodes. The eight low-capacitance diodes are connected in series in pairs and in parallel with the TVS diode. The two ends of the TVS diode correspond to the first end and the second end, respectively. The first end corresponds to the positive input end of the TVS diode, and the second end corresponds to the positive output end of the TVS diode. The test point is located between two low-capacitance diodes connected in series, and there are four test points. When testing the electrostatic discharge protection device under test (ESD), various parameters need to be tested according to the first end, the second end, and at least one test point. The test sub-board 10 is adapted to the ESD device under test and serves to connect the ESD device under test to the test motherboard 20. Therefore, the test sub-board 10 includes a first connection end, a second connection end, and at least one test end that correspond one-to-one with the first end, the second end, and at least one test point of the ESD device under test, so that the test motherboard 20 can be connected to the first end, the second end, and at least one test point of the ESD device under test, thereby facilitating the testing of the ESD device under test by the test system 30.

[0036] In some embodiments, the test system 30 includes two connection ports and at least one test port and a control port. The connection circuit 21 includes a first circuit and a second circuit. The switchable circuit 22 includes at least one third circuit. The first circuit is connected to the first connection terminal and a connection port. The second circuit is connected to the second connection terminal and another connection port. One end of the third circuit is connected to the test terminal in a one-to-one correspondence. The other end of the third circuit is connected to the test port in a one-to-one correspondence. The control port is connected to the third circuit in a one-to-one correspondence to control the on / off state of each third circuit.

[0037] Specifically, the two connection ports of the test system 30 are respectively connected to the first and second ends of the electrostatic discharge protection element under test through the first and second circuits. At least one test port of the test system 30 is connected to the test point of the electrostatic discharge protection element under test in a one-to-one correspondence (when there is one test port of the test system, all test points of the electrostatic discharge protection element under test are connected to the test port, and the connectivity between the test port and the test point is related to the on / off state of the third circuit connecting the test port and the test point) to realize the testing of the electrostatic discharge protection element under test. At least one control port of the test system 30 is connected to the third circuit in a one-to-one correspondence to control the on / off state of the third circuit.

[0038] When the test points of the electrostatic discharge protection element under test include 4, the 4 test ports of the test system 30 are connected one-to-one with the test points. Then, the third circuit is provided with 4, which are respectively used to connect the test ports and the test points, so as to realize the test system 30 to test the electrostatic discharge protection element under test. The control port is provided with 4, which are respectively connected to the control terminal of the third circuit to control the on and off of the third circuit.

[0039] It should be noted that the third circuit is a switchable circuit 22, that is, the test system 30 can control the on / off state of the third circuit through the control port connected to the third circuit to realize the test of the electrostatic protection component under test. The third circuit is equipped with a relay, and the control terminal of the relay is the control port of the third circuit.

[0040] For example, such as Figure 3 As shown, the electrostatic discharge protection device under test includes a TVS diode and eight low-capacitance diodes. The eight low-capacitance diodes are connected in series in pairs and in parallel with the TVS diode. When testing the parameters of one of the low-capacitance diodes, the test system 30 controls the third circuit connected to the test point at one end of the low-capacitance diode to be turned on, and controls the test point to be connected to a high level, while the first end (or the second end) at the other end of the first low-capacitance diode is connected to a low level, or controls the test point to be connected to a low level, while the first end at the other end of the first low-capacitance diode is connected to a high level, so as to realize the test of the first low-capacitance diode.

[0041] In some embodiments, the test system 30 includes a controller for controlling two connection ports and at least one test port and control port of the test system 30 to perform testing on the electrostatic discharge protection component under test.

[0042] Specifically, the controller controls the output signals of the connection port, test port and control port of the test system 30 and the electrostatic protection component under test respectively based on the preset test procedure, so as to realize the testing of various parameters of the electrostatic protection component under test.

[0043] It should be noted that the test system 30 can measure the parameters of the electrostatic discharge protection element under test, including: the forward voltage drop, breakdown voltage, and reverse leakage current of each low-capacitance diode at different voltages (e.g., the reverse leakage current of the low-capacitance diode at 5V and the reverse leakage current of the low-capacitance diode at 3.3V).

[0044] In this embodiment, the testing system 30 automatically tests the electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection component under test (ESD) through a pre-stored test program in the controller, which greatly improves the testing efficiency of the ESD protection component under test. Furthermore, the ESD protection component under test is connected to the testing system 30 through the test sub-board 10 and the test mother board 20, which avoids the ESD protection component under test being connected to the testing system 30 by clamping, thereby avoiding the impact of clamping errors on the testing accuracy of the ESD protection component under test, and is conducive to improving the testing accuracy of the ESD protection component under test.

[0045] In some embodiments, the test fixture further includes an LCR tester, which is used to connect to the electrostatic protection element under test through the test motherboard 20 and the test daughterboard 10.

[0046] Specifically, the LCR tester is used to connect to the first and second terminals of the electrostatic discharge protection element under test in order to test the capacitance of the electrostatic discharge protection element under test.

[0047] It should be noted that when the LCR tester tests the electrostatic discharge protection device under test, it is connected to the connection circuit 21 of the test motherboard 20, so as to realize the connection with the electrostatic discharge protection device under test through the connection between the test motherboard 20 and the test daughterboard 10, and the connection between the test daughterboard 10 and the electrostatic discharge protection device under test.

[0048] In this embodiment, the LCR tester is connected to the electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection component under test through the test mother board 20 and the test daughter board 10, so as to realize the capacitance test of the ESD protection component under test. This avoids the problem of the LCR tester being clamped to the ESD protection component under test, which could lead to the problem of the test accuracy being affected by the clamping not being tight. This is beneficial to improving the test accuracy of the test fixture.

[0049] In some embodiments, the test fixture further includes a clamping voltage tester, which is used to connect to the electrostatic protection element under test through the test motherboard 20 and the test daughterboard 10.

[0050] Specifically, the clamping voltage tester is used to connect to the first and second terminals of the electrostatic discharge protection element under test in order to test the clamping voltage of the electrostatic discharge protection element under test.

[0051] It should be noted that when the clamping voltage tester tests the electrostatic protection element under test, it is connected to the connection circuit 21 of the test motherboard 20, so as to realize the connection with the electrostatic protection element under test through the connection between the test motherboard 20 and the test daughterboard 10, and the connection between the test daughterboard 10 and the electrostatic protection element under test.

[0052] In this embodiment, the clamping voltage tester is connected to the electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection component under test through the test mother board 20 and the test daughter board 10, so as to test the clamping voltage of the ESD protection component under test. This avoids the problem of the clamping voltage tester being clamped to the ESD protection component under test, which could lead to problems such as loose clamping affecting the test accuracy. This is beneficial to improving the test accuracy of the test fixture.

[0053] Based on the same inventive concept, this application also provides a method for testing electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection components, applied to the ESD protection component testing fixture described above, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the method includes: Step S101: Connect the test sub-board to the test motherboard, and connect the test motherboard to the test system; Specifically, the test daughter board is connected to the connection circuit and the switchable circuit on the test mother board, the connection circuit and the switchable circuit on the test mother board are connected to the connection port and the test port of the test system, and the control terminal of the switchable circuit is connected to the control port of the test system so that the test system controls the on / off state of the switchable circuit.

[0054] Step S102: Connect the electrostatic protection component to be tested to the test sub-board; Specifically, by placing the electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection element under test (ESD) in the groove on the test sub-board according to the standard placement direction, the connection between the test sub-board and the ESD protection element under test can be achieved, which helps to improve the connection efficiency between the ESD protection element under test and the test sub-board.

[0055] Step S103: Start the test system to test the electrostatic discharge protection component under test through the control port, test port and connection port of the test system.

[0056] Specifically, pressing the test start button of the test system activates the test system, which then performs tests on the electrostatic protection component under test according to the preset test procedure.

[0057] It should be noted that there is a corresponding relationship between the control port and the test port of the test system. That is, the corresponding control port and the test port are connected to the same switchable circuit. When a control port controls the switchable circuit it is connected to to conduct, the test system determines that the test port corresponding to the switchable circuit needs to execute the test process, and then the connection port assists the test port to complete the test together.

[0058] For example, such as Figure 3As shown, the electrostatic discharge protection device under test includes one TVS diode and eight low-capacitance diodes. The eight low-capacitance diodes are connected in series in pairs and in parallel with the TVS diode. The two ends of the TVS diode correspond to the first end and the second end, respectively. The first end corresponds to the forward input end of the TVS diode, and the second end corresponds to the forward output end of the TVS diode. The test point is located between two low-capacitance diodes connected in series. There are four test points. The test system includes four control ports, four test ports, and two connection ports. The two connection ports are connected to the first end and the second end through two connection circuits. The four test ports are connected to the four test points through four switchable circuits. The four control ports are connected to the four switchable circuits respectively to control the on / off state of the four switchable circuits. The parameters tested by the test system include the forward voltage drop, breakdown voltage, and reverse leakage current of each diode at different voltages.

[0059] For example, as shown in Table 1, these are the parameters of the electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection device obtained after the test system is completed. The serial numbers of the diodes in the ESD protection device are as follows: Figure 3 As shown.

[0060] Table 1 Test Results of the Test System

[0061] In this embodiment, when testing the electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection component under test using the test fixture, it is only necessary to connect the ESD protection component under test to the test fixture and start the test system. The test system can then complete the testing of various parameters of the ESD protection component under test according to a preset procedure, which can greatly improve the testing efficiency of the ESD protection component under test. Furthermore, the test fixture can avoid clamping the ESD protection component under test, which is beneficial to improving the testing accuracy of the ESD protection component under test.

[0062] In some embodiments, the method further includes: Step S201: Connect the test motherboard to the LCR tester and connect the electrostatic protection component under test to the test daughterboard. Step S202: Start the LCR tester to test the capacitance of the electrostatic protection component under test.

[0063] Specifically, after the relevant parameters of the electrostatic protection component under test are tested by the test system, the connection between the test motherboard and the test system is disconnected, and the two connection circuits of the test motherboard are connected to the two test terminals of the LCR tester respectively. The LCR tester is then started, and the LCR tester can measure the capacitance of the electrostatic protection component under test.

[0064] It should be noted that the two connection circuits of the test motherboard correspond to the first and second terminals of the electrostatic discharge protection element under test, respectively. The LCR tester completes the connection of its two test terminals to the first and second terminals according to the rules for capacitance testing of the electrostatic discharge protection element under test, so as to measure the capacitance of the electrostatic discharge protection element under test.

[0065] In this embodiment, the test fixture enables the testing of the capacitance of the electrostatic discharge protection component under test, and avoids the clamping connection between the LCR tester and the electrostatic discharge protection component under test, thereby avoiding the impact of clamping errors on the test accuracy and improving the test accuracy of the capacitance of the electrostatic discharge protection component under test.

[0066] In some embodiments, the method further includes: Step S301: Connect the test motherboard to the clamping voltage tester and connect the electrostatic protection component under test to the test daughterboard. Step S302: Start the clamping voltage tester to test the clamping voltage of the electrostatic protection component under test.

[0067] Specifically, after the relevant parameters of the electrostatic protection component under test are tested by the test system, the connection between the test motherboard and the test system is disconnected, and the two connection circuits of the test motherboard are connected to the two test terminals of the clamping voltage tester respectively. The clamping voltage tester is then started, and the clamping voltage tester can measure the clamping voltage of the electrostatic protection component under test.

[0068] It should be noted that the two connection circuits of the test motherboard correspond to the first and second terminals of the electrostatic protection element under test, respectively. The clamping voltage tester completes the connection of its two test terminals to the first and second terminals according to the rules for clamping voltage testing of the electrostatic protection element under test, so as to measure the clamping voltage of the electrostatic protection element under test.

[0069] In this embodiment, the clamping voltage of the electrostatic discharge protection device under test can be tested using the test fixture, and the clamping voltage tester can be avoided from being clamped to the electrostatic discharge protection device under test, thereby avoiding the situation where the test accuracy is affected by clamping error, which is beneficial to improving the test accuracy of the clamping voltage of the electrostatic discharge protection device under test.

[0070] It should be noted that the method in this embodiment can be executed by a single device, such as a computer or server. The method can also be applied in a distributed scenario, where multiple devices cooperate to complete the task. In such a distributed scenario, one of these devices may execute only one or more steps of the method in this embodiment, and the multiple devices will interact with each other to complete the method described.

Furthermore, the processes depicted in the drawings do not necessarily require a specific or sequential order to achieve the desired result.
