Integration and test strategies for semiconductor manufacturing equipment

    Abstract

    The complexity of semiconductor manufacturing equipment is growing. This growth results in a complexity increase of the integration and test phase of these systems. Simply adding more test resources is not possible anymore, because of the cost involved. A better design of an integration and test strategy can help to optimize this hectic phase. However, methods to design and evaluate integration and test strategies for multi-disciplinary systems are hardly available. In this paper, we present a method to design and compare integration and test strategies. Following this method, an optimal integration and test strategy can be chosen from a set of possible strategies. A case has been performed where a system is integrated and tested using three different integration and test strategies: a time-to-market-driven strategy, a qualitydriven strategy and a combined quality and time-to-market strategy.
