Untested ASICs and wafers generally have an estimated fail rate of several percent. A complete test of various functions within the ASIC according to full chipset specifications could eliminate the costs of resoldering failed ASICs after the product test and allow the final product function test to be simplified. To handle the 16 pin SOIC ASIC, a Multitest MT9928 was chosen to automate the test. The Konrad Mixed-Signal Tester KT-7500 FINN was an ideal tool to cover the various test steps. Using the Konrad Technologies mixed-signal tester produces high-quality statistical data of various ASIC functions. Simplification of the final product test leads to a significant cost improvement.
