  • Patent number: 5940303
    Abstract: A semiconductor device test system includes a first warehouse, an insertion and extraction unit, a second warehouse, a test burn-in unit, and a scheduler. The scheduler sets a test schedule so that the test burn-in unit tests the semiconductor devices according to the type of semiconductor devices, based on product data transmitted from the first and second warehouses. The scheduler issues an instruction to transfer a desired burn-in board from the second warehouse to the insertion and extraction unit based on the insertion and extraction schedule. The scheduler issues an instruction to transfer the desired burn-in board from the insertion and extraction unit to the second warehouse based on the insertion and extraction schedule. A high throughput test system is thus provided that concurrently carries out the insertion and extraction of semiconductor devices with respect to burn-in boards.
