[0034] The following describes some embodiments of the present application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.
[0035] Considering the different types of semiconductor tests in existing solutions, different test boards need to be set up, and high-quality professional test boards are expensive. For small-batch production or the R&D stage, frequent replacement of test boards will bring about high cost pressure. The present application provides a semiconductor test board. The semiconductor test board of the present application can perform multiple tests on semiconductors using a single test board. The multiple tests are independent of each other, which reduces the cost of semiconductor devices while enhancing the flexibility and accuracy of the tests.
[0036] The semiconductor test board will be described below with reference to some specific embodiments.
[0037] Figure 1A schematic diagram of the structure of a semiconductor test board according to an embodiment of the present application is shown. Exemplarily, the board includes: a first test pedestal group 10, a second test pedestal group 20, a first set of power connection terminals 30, and a second set of power connection terminals 40. It is understood that the first test pedestal group 10 in this embodiment may include any number of first test pedestals, and the second test pedestal group 20 may include any number of second test pedestals.
[0038] Semiconductor devices are electronic components made of semiconductor materials and play a vital role in modern electronic technology. Semiconductor devices can be MOS tubes, IGBTs, BJTs, thyristors, etc.
[0039] Specifically, the first test base assembly 10 is used to perform a reverse bias test on each semiconductor device, and the second test base assembly 20 is used to perform a gate bias test on each semiconductor device. It is understood that, depending on actual application conditions, the semiconductor to be tested can be tested using a test board. The semiconductor test board can be used alone to perform a reverse bias test on the semiconductor; a constant temperature and humidity test chamber can be used to perform a high-temperature reverse bias test on the semiconductor; a constant temperature and humidity test chamber can be used to perform a high-temperature and high-humidity reverse bias test on the semiconductor; the semiconductor test board can be used to perform a forward gate bias test on the semiconductor; the semiconductor test board can be used to perform a reverse gate bias test on the semiconductor; the constant temperature and humidity test chamber can be used to perform a high-temperature gate bias test on the semiconductor; further, the test board can be used to perform both a reverse bias test and a gate bias test on the semiconductor. This can reduce the preparation time and downtime caused by replacing different test boards, speed up the testing process, reduce the R&D cost and logistics cost of semiconductor devices by reducing the number of test boards, and use a single test board to perform multiple tests on the semiconductor, increasing testing flexibility, ensuring that tests are performed under the same environment, and improving the consistency of test results.
[0040] It is understood that the first set of power connection terminals 30 includes power input terminals and power output terminals, and can be used to connect to an external power source according to actual application conditions. The second set of power terminals includes power input terminals and power output terminals, and can be used to connect to an external power source according to actual application conditions via the second set of power connection terminals 40. Each first test pedestal in the first test pedestal group 10 is connected to the first set of power connection terminals 30, and the input terminal of each first test pedestal in the first test pedestal group 10 is connected to the power input terminal of the first set of power connection terminals 30, and the output terminal of each first test pedestal in the first test pedestal group 10 is connected to the power output terminal of the first set of power connection terminals 30. Each second test pedestal in the second test pedestal group 20 is connected to the second set of power connection terminals 40, and the input terminal of each second test pedestal in the second test pedestal group 20 is connected to the power input terminal of the second set of power connection terminals 40, and the output terminal of each second test pedestal in the second test pedestal group 20 is connected to the power output terminal of the second set of power connection terminals 40.
[0041] Each first test base and each second test base are used to carry the semiconductor device to be tested during testing; it can be understood that the first test base and the second test base can be surface mount pins, and the first test base and the second test base can be pin pins. Furthermore, component holders can be set on the first test base and the second test base to facilitate the installation and removal of semiconductor devices.
[0042] The number of first and second measurement bases on a semiconductor test board can be set based on actual application requirements. Exemplarily, the number of bases on a semiconductor test board ranges from 40 to 200. The number of first and second measurement bases can be the same, or the number of second and second measurement bases can be different. Exemplarily, if the number of first and second measurement bases is the same, a test board can have 40 first and 40 second measurement bases, or 80 first and 80 second measurement bases. Multiple test bases on a semiconductor test board enable simultaneous testing of multiple semiconductors, shortening test time and significantly improving production efficiency. It also ensures consistency in test conditions, enhancing the comparability and reliability of test results.
[0043] The test bases in the test board can be arranged according to actual application conditions. The first test base and the second test base can be set separately, or the first test base and the second test base can be set crosswise. For example, Figure 1As shown, the first test bases in each column of the first test base group 10 and the second test bases in each column of the second test base group 20 are arranged at intervals, wherein the reverse bias test performed using the first test base dissipates higher heat, and the gate bias test performed using the second test base dissipates lower heat. The two types of test bases in the test board are cross-arranged in columns, which can ensure the number of test bases on the test board while allowing the first test base to fully dissipate heat during testing.
[0044] The semiconductor test board of the present embodiment is provided with a first test pedestal group 10 for performing reverse bias testing on semiconductor devices, and a second test pedestal group 20 for performing gate bias testing on semiconductor devices. This allows users to perform both reverse bias and gate bias testing simultaneously, improving test parallelism and efficiency and adapting to different types of semiconductor devices and testing requirements. Furthermore, the two test pedestals in the test board of this embodiment are arranged in rows, interleaved with each other, to reduce mutual interference between tests and improve the accuracy and reliability of test results.
[0045] In one embodiment, based on the above embodiment, Figure 2 Another structural schematic diagram of the semiconductor test board of an embodiment of the present application is shown, in which the first test bases in each row of the first test base group 10 and the second test bases in each row of the second test base group 20 are arranged at intervals. It can be understood that the test bases in each row can be arranged correspondingly to the test bases in other rows, and the test bases in each row can also be staggered with the test bases in other rows. In this embodiment, the test bases in each row are arranged correspondingly to the test bases in other rows to form a base matrix.
[0046] The semiconductor test board of the embodiment of the present application can arrange more test bases in a limited space by cross-arranging the two test bases in the test board in rows, thereby improving the space utilization of the test board. At the same time, test data can be collected and analyzed centrally, which is convenient for statistics and quality control.
[0047] In one embodiment, based on the above embodiment, Figure 3 A schematic structural diagram of the first group of power connection terminals and the second group of power connection terminals in an embodiment of the present application, in which each first test base is spaced apart from each second test base in the width direction and the length direction of the test board. It can be understood that the test board in this embodiment has several rows of test boards in the width direction and several columns of test boards in the length direction, that is, the first test base and the second test base in each row of the test board are spaced apart, and the first test base and the second test base in each column of the test board are spaced apart.
[0048] The semiconductor test board of the embodiment of the present application arranges the first test base and the second test base in each row of the test board at intervals, and arranges the first test base and the second test base in each column of the test board at intervals, which makes it easier to dissipate heat for the first test base during testing and ensures the space utilization of the test board.
[0049] As an optional solution, Figure 4 A circuit diagram of a semiconductor test board according to an embodiment of the present application is shown.
[0050] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, on the basis of the above embodiments, each first test base includes a source pin S, a drain pin D and a gate pin G, wherein the gate pin G is connected to the source pin S. Specifically, the reverse bias test of the semiconductor device requires the gate pin G of the semiconductor device to be short-circuited with the source pin S of the semiconductor device. In this embodiment, the gate pin G and the source pin S on each first test base are short-circuited. When the semiconductor device needs to be tested, the various pins of the semiconductor can be connected to the corresponding pins on the test board.
[0051] Furthermore, the first group of power connection terminals 30 includes a first power input terminal 301 and a first power output terminal 302. The source pin S of each first test base is electrically connected to the first power input terminal 301 as the input terminal of the first test base, and the drain pin D of each first test base is electrically connected to the first power output terminal 302 as the output terminal of the first test base. When a reverse bias test is performed using a semiconductor test board, the first power input terminal 301 is used for grounding, and the first power output terminal 302 is used to connect to the first power supply. The size of the first power supply can be set according to actual application conditions. Exemplarily, the first power supply is 30V.
[0052] The semiconductor test board of the embodiment of the present application short-circuits the gate pin G and the source pin S of each first test base. When the user needs to perform a reverse bias test on the semiconductor device, the first power input terminal 301 can be grounded, the first power output terminal 302 can be connected to the first power supply, and the semiconductor device can be placed on the base of the test board. There is no need for complicated welding or connection processes, which simplifies the operation steps and eliminates the need to use connecting wires to connect the semiconductor device, reducing the material cost of the test.
[0053] In one embodiment, if Figure 4As shown, on the basis of the above embodiments, each second test base includes a source pin S, a drain pin D and a gate pin G, wherein the drain pin D is connected to the source pin S. Specifically, the gate bias test of the semiconductor device requires short-circuiting the drain pin D of the semiconductor device and the source pin S of the semiconductor device. In this embodiment, the drain pin D and the source pin S on each second test base are short-circuited. When the semiconductor device needs to be tested, the various pins of the semiconductor are connected to the various pins of the test board accordingly.
[0054] Furthermore, the second group of power connection terminals 40 includes a second power input terminal 401 and a second power output terminal 402. The source pin S of each second test base is electrically connected to the second power input terminal 401 as the input terminal of the second test base, and the gate pin G of each second test base is electrically connected to the second power output terminal 402 as the output terminal of the second test base. The connection between the second power input terminal 401 and the second power output terminal 402 can be set according to actual application conditions. Specifically, when a forward gate bias test is performed using a semiconductor test board, the second power input terminal 401 is used to connect the second power supply, and the second power output terminal 402 is used for grounding; when a reverse gate bias test is performed using a semiconductor test board, the second power input terminal 401 is used for grounding, and the second power output terminal 402 is used to connect the second power supply. The size of the second power supply can be set according to actual application conditions. For example, the second power supply is 520V.
[0055] The semiconductor test board of the embodiment of the present application short-circuits the drain pin D and the source pin S of each second test base. When the user needs to perform a gate bias test on the semiconductor device, the second group of power connection terminals 40 are connected to the second power supply, and the semiconductor device is placed on the base of the test board. There is no need for complicated welding or connection processes, which simplifies the operation steps and eliminates the need to use connecting wires to connect the semiconductor device, reducing the material cost of the test.
[0056] In one embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the semiconductor test board also includes a plurality of fuses F1, and the input end of each first test base is electrically connected to the first power input terminal 301 through each fuse F1, and the input end of each second test base is electrically connected to the second power input terminal 401 through each fuse F1.
[0057] The semiconductor test board of the embodiment of the present application is provided with a fuse between the power supply and the input end of the test base. When the current exceeds its rated value, the fuse will melt and cut off the circuit, thereby preventing excessive current from passing through the test base and the device under test, avoiding equipment damage caused by overcurrent. The fuse can also prevent excessive current from flowing back to the power supply, protecting the power supply equipment, and greatly improving the reliability of the test board.
