Abstract: A method of testing and repairing an integrated circuit having a total number of fuses for effecting repair of the integrated circuit. The method including: testing a memory array with a set of tests and reserving a first number of the total number of fuses for use in repairing the memory array based on results of the first set of tests; and shmoo testing the memory array by incrementing, decrementing or incrementing and decrementing values of a test parameter until a minimum or maximum value of the test parameter is reached that utilizes a second number of the total number of fuses for use in repairing the memory array to operate at the minimum or maximum value of the test parameter.

Abstract: A method, system and software for automatically generating a test environment for testing a plurality of devices (DUTs) under test in a test system. The multiple devices are tested by mapping the plurality of DUTs into pins of the tester system to create pin data; inputting into a test program generator pattern data, generic test program rules and the pin data; generating a multi-DUT test program and multi-DUT pattern data; and controlling the test system through the test program. The resulting fail data is then logged to each DUT.
