Abstract: A semiconductor chip testing method includes: (a) testing the electrical characteristics of each of semiconductor chips in the form of wafers or in the form of chips formed on a predetermined number of semiconductor wafers having certain relationship, and determining if the semiconductor chip is non-defective or defective; (b) calculating a percentage of semiconductor chips determined to be defective as a fraction defective for each of wafer addresses based on determination results about the semiconductor chips on the predetermined number of semiconductor wafers, the wafer addresses indicating the respective positions of the semiconductor chips on the semiconductor wafers; and (c) changing a determination result about a semiconductor chip determined to be non-defective to defective, the semiconductor chip being at a wafer address determined to have a fraction defective at a threshold or higher than the threshold.

Abstract: A process failure information management system including a server and a terminal, in which an user inputs information concerning a process failure using the terminal and the input information are stored into a database of the server. The date of input by the user is stored into the database. When a prescribed period has passed from the date of input stored in the database without input by an user of the following step, the server sends an E-mail for asking for an input of information to the user who inputs information at the following step.
