Systems and methods for identification of outlier semiconductor devices using data-driven statistical characterization are described herein. At least some preferred embodiments include a method that includes identifying a plurality of sample semiconductor chips that fail a production test as a result of subjecting the plurality of sample semiconductor chips to a stress inducing process, identifying at least one correlation between variations in a first sample parameter and variations in a second sample parameter (the sample parameters associated with the plurality of sample semiconductor chips) identifying as a statistical outlier chip any of a plurality of production semiconductor chips that pass the production test and that further do not conform to a parameter constraint generated based upon the at least one correlation identified and upon data associated with at least some of the plurality of production semiconductor chips, and segregating the statistical outlier chip from the plurality of production semiconductor chip.

A method for test data-driven detection of outlier semiconductor devices. Some illustrative embodiments may be a method used to test a semiconductor die comprising performing a burn-in test of a plurality of sample semiconductor dies to identify a failure of a defective semiconductor die, correlating variations in a parameter with the failure (the parameter comprising a characteristic associated with the plurality of sample semiconductor dies), defining a parameter constraint associated with the parameter, performing a production test of a production semiconductor die, and identifying the production semiconductor die as an outlier semiconductor die (the outlier semiconductor die passing the production test, but failing to conform to the parameter constraint).

摘要:
A method for identifying outlier semiconductor devices from a plurality of semiconductor devices includes performing at least one electrical test to obtain electrical test data including at least one test parameter, applying at least a first data transform processing methodology to the electrical test data to generate processed test data, and applying a second data transform processing methodology that is different from the first data transform processing methodology to process the processed test data. The second data transform processing methodology applies an outlier test limit to identify non-outlier devices that comprise semiconductor devices from the semiconductor devices that conform to the outlier test limit and outlier devices that do not conform to the outlier test limit. The semiconductor devices are dispositioned using the outlier identification results. At least one of the data transform processing methodologies can include statistics.
