DALL-E Semiconductor Testing Semiconductor testing, also known as integrated circuit (IC) testing or chip testing, is a critical process in the semiconductor manufacturing cycle. It verifies that ICs function before being deployed in various applications, ranging from consumer electronics to critical automotive systems. This testing phase ensures that only devices meeting the required performance, functionality, and reliability specifications reach the market. In a nutshell, semiconductor testing involves applying electrical signals to a chip and measuring the output to assess its performance against predefined criteria. The process is carried out using specialized equipment known as automated test equipment, capable of conducting various electrical tests. Testing can occur at several stages of the semiconductor manufacturing process, including: Wafer Testing (Wafer Sort): Test individual chips while still part of the silicon […]
