  • In-process system level test before surface mount
    Patent number: 8368416
    Abstract: Methods and systems for testing an integrated circuit during an assembly process are described. The integrated circuit is received from inventory. The integrated circuit is placed in a socket on a first circuit board for system-level testing. The system-level testing is performed prior to placement and permanent attachment of the integrated circuit onto a second circuit board. Provided the integrated circuit passes the system-level testing, the placement and permanent attachment of the integrated circuit to the second circuit board is the next step following the system-level testing in the assembly process.
