August 2, 2022 - Vista, California - Axiom Test Equipment, Inc., an electronic test equipment rental and sales company has published a new blog post titled "Modular Test Solution Speed Semiconductor Testing," explaining how to pick the right module when you need a solution with semiconductor testing. A well-designed mainframe that operates according to plug-in modules can not only pack a great deal of measurement power into a small space, but it can also be configured as needed by exchanging modules. Modular semiconductor parameter testers are capable of top-line mainframe accuracy along with the test speed and flexibility for high-volume production-line device testing.

Modular units provide a more "compressed" approach to executing semiconductor parameter measurements. A modular unit consists of a full-sized mainframe and much smaller plug-in modules which contain the measurement capabilities required for a specific semiconductor parametric test. Modular test solutions typically enable quicker, less complicated setups whether performing manual measurements or in an automatic-test-equipment (ATE) environment. For example, modular semiconductor parameter testers can switch between C-V and I-V measurements without rewiring the cables between the test equipment and a device under test (DUT). In a modular tester, it is simply a matter of switching between modules. The smaller size of a total modular semiconductor parameter test setup can speed setup times but also lead to faster test data collection and analysis with much less power consumption.

In this blog we included a sample of the available modules which can quickly transform a mainframe into a well-equipped semiconductor parameter test solution.

Learn When an Analyzer Makes More Sense Than a Meter

Semiconductors are often considered "ground-zero" or starting points for advanced electronics technologies, whether for commercial, industrial, military, or medical solutions or even in space. They are fabricated in various configurations and from many materials, each approach yielding a set of characteristics well suited for a variety of applications. Before they can be used, however, semiconductor devices and materials must be full characterized by means of many tests and often over wide measurement ranges. Finding a traditional benchtop test system with enough functionality and performance to characterize some of the latest semiconductor devices and materials can be a challenge. In contrast, a well-designed mainframe that operates according to plug-in modules can not only pack a great deal of measurement power into a small space, but it can also be configured as needed by exchanging modules. Modular semiconductor parameter testers are capable of top-line mainframe accuracy along with the test speed and flexibility for high-volume production-line device testing.

Semiconductor parameter analysis focuses on semiconductor device and process parameters rather than device functions. As detailed in an earlier blog, "Capturing Semiconductor Current and Voltage Characteristics," parametric analysis explores how essential electrical parameters, such as voltage (V), current (I), and capacitance (C), may change with time or according to different operating conditions. Semiconductor parameter analysis can capture data related to the quality and consistency of a semiconductor substrate material and the devices formed from that material.

The nature of the test stimuli used as part of the parameter measurements will depend upon the type of electrical device being tested, including discrete transistors, integrated circuits (ICs), and most recently system-on-chip (SoC) devices. Semiconductor characteristics must be studied for a variety of ICs, including analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), digital-to-analog converters (DACs), memory devices, microcontrollers, and operational amplifiers (opamps). The test data can also be used for process control monitoring (PCM) and wafer level reliability (WLR) testing when manufacturing semiconductors.
