Abstract: An inference engine determines whether a device under test has become stuck in a test socket of an automated test system by analyzing measurement data sampled during normal execution of a production test program for the device. The inference engine is trained to identify stuck patterns in the measurement data for a particular device design. In the event a stuck condition is detected by the inference engine, testing by the automated test system is halted and an alert is transmitted to an operator.
Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for testing and re-testing integrated circuits. In use, a group of integrated circuits is tested. In use, before finishing the test, at least one of the integrated circuits of the group is re-tested.
