  • Patent number: 11919046
    Abstract: A method of sorting an electronic device includes receiving first data generated by a test tool that is performing a test operation on the electronic device according to a test program, and a provisional binning assignment for the electronic device determined from the first data. The method also includes defining a permanent binning assignment for the electronic device based at least in part on applying a first algorithm and a second algorithm to the first data, the first algorithm and the second algorithm being different. The method further includes outputting the permanent binning assignment so that after the test operation is completed, the electronic device is removed from the test tool and placed in one of a plurality of bins according to the permanent binning assignment.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11235355
    Abstract: Systems and methods for sorting an electronic device undergoing a final test operation in accordance with a test program, into one of a plurality of bins. In one embodiment, an evaluator defines the binning of the electronic device while the device is still socketed, and the defined binning may or may not concur with the binning assigned by the test program.
