  • Patent number: 10496505
    Abstract: The present invention discloses an IC test method including the following steps: generating N test patterns; testing each of M chip(s) according to the N test patterns so as to generate N×M records of quiescent DC current (IDDQ) data; generating N reference values according to the N×M records, in which each of the N reference values is generated according to M record(s) of the N×M records, and the M record(s) and the reference value generated thereupon are related to the same one of the N test patterns; obtaining a reference order of the N test patterns according to the N reference values and a sorting rule; reordering the N×M records by the reference order so as to obtain reordered N×M records; generating an IDDQ range according to the reordered N×M records; and determining whether any of the M chip(s) is defective based on the IDDQ range.
