  • Publication number: 20150109015
    Abstract: Structures and methods for system-level testing of integrated circuit dies at wafer sort is disclosed. This concept combines a system-level test (which is traditionally a “socketed” test performed on a packaged IC in a test socket) with the ability to contact an integrated circuit die on a wafer using a probe card. The die on the wafer becomes part of the system-level environment in order to test the integrated circuit die in the system-level environment prior to packaging, and may be used to better identify known good die.
