    摘要: An apparatus for integrating wafer scale semiconductor integrated circuits and interfacing them with other systems. A wafer, partial wafer, die or plurality of same are mated to a printed circuit board (PCB) which electrically contacts the pads on each die using small conductive pillars. The PCB in turn is connected easily to other electronic systems. The entire apparatus is incorporated into other systems which utilize the dice in the apparatus. The apparatus may be fitted with heating elements and cooling channels to generate the necessary die temperatures for burn-in, testing, and operation. The apparatus is easily adaptable to include more dice in a stacked configuration.

    摘要: The invention relates to a stacked integrated circuit module 20 which is interchangeable with standard printed circuit boards. Module 20 has two PCBs 22 and 24 and multiple memory ICs 26a-26d mounted on the PCBs. A board alignment support 48 is provided between PCBs 22 and 24 to support the PCBs in a spaced and substantially parallel relation and to provide electrical interfacing between the two PCBs. PCB 22 has an edge connector 44 adapted to be inserted into standard receptacle connectors provided on a mother board. According to this stacked arrangement, memory ICs 26c and 26d are addressable through connector 44, conductive paths formed on PCB 22, board alignment support 48, and conductive paths formed on PCB 24.

    摘要: Defective memory is programmed to have a contiguous address space by dividing the logical address space of the memory into a plurality of address sections. The address section containing the address mapped to a defective memory location is identified. The physical memory locations originally mapped to the addresses in the identified address section are remapped to addresses in an address section at one end of the address space. The addresses in the end address section are disabled. Alternatively, spare memory is provided and the addresses in the end address section are remapped to physical locations in the spare memory. A similar remapping procedure is applied to repair defective data paths in a memory. The remapping procedure is applicable to memory devices or memory modules.

    摘要: A spare memory arrangement in which a defective chip in a memory array can be electronically replaced with a spare chip of identical construction. A defective memory chip is first detected and located by a suitable means, such as an error correction code (ECC), check sum, or parity check. A sparer chip is constructed to be actuated upon a read to the defective memory chip to replace the defective chip with a memory spare chip. The sparer chip includes a cross-point memory (CPM) cell having an address register for receiving data from a central processing unit (CPU) and routing the data to and from the spare memory chip. The cross-point memory (CPM) cell is actuated by control input from the (CPU).

    摘要: An apparatus for wafer scale burn-in and testing of semiconductor integrated circuits and a method for its utilization is disclosed. A wafer is mated to a printed circuit board which electrically contacts the pads on each die using small conductive pillars. Single precise alignment of entire wafer within apparatus allows for testing all the dice on the wafer in parallel, eliminating need to probe each die individually. The apparatus is fitted with heating elements and cooling channels to generate the necessary wafer temperatures for burn-in and testing. The method of utilization eliminates processing of defective dice beyond burn-in and test, thereby increasing throughput.
