Digital, mixed-signal and application-development workflow
Advantest EVA100 Application and Test Engineering
Digital and mixed-signal test programs are developed around the actual EVA100 boards and device specifications. CP, FT, IP validation and failure analysis use Sequence, Timing, Level, Device Block, virtual instruments and Shmoo for development and debug.
EVA100 equipment visual. Boards, instrument resources and software capability follow the actual system configuration.
Equipment and engineering solution
Applications
Designed for the following probe card manufacturing, test and maintenance tasks.
Device test-program development
Build projects, items and judgements around data sheet, board and tester resources.
Engineering validation and failure analysis
Use virtual instruments, sequence and Shmoo to localize voltage, current, timing and margin issues.
CP/FT flow migration
Map equipment resources, interface board, test program and data output into an acceptable migration.
SPECIFICATIONS
Specifications
The final configuration follows the card, interfaces, site conditions and acceptance items.
| Item | Specification / configuration | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Signal types | Digital and mixed signal | Subject to actual boards and system resources |
| Device types | Logic, PMIC, comparator, amplifier, audio/video converter and sensor | Coverage follows device specification and tester resources |
| Application stations | CP, FT, IP validation and failure analysis | Test interface and automation follow station configuration |
| Virtual instruments | Voltmeter, ammeter, voltage source, current source and clock | Available range depends on system resources |
| Development tools | Sequence, Pin, Timing, Level and Device Block | For test-program organization and debug |
| Analysis | Shmoo and result data | Axes, steps and judgement follow device needs |
| Delivery | Environment review, interface board, program, golden sample, report and training | Scope is defined in project documents |
WORKFLOW
Workflow
Inventory system and device
