    Abstract: Integrated circuits are tested on the wafer level through an additional circuit part that is electrically connected via at least one connecting line with the associated integrated circuit. The additional circuit part is integrated into an interspace between the integrated circuits of the wafer. Functions of the integrated circuit can be controlled via the connecting line. For example, in the case of a memory module such as a DRAM, internal voltages and/or currents of the integrated circuit can advantageously be measured even on internal lines which are otherwise only accessible with difficulty. Following the wafer-level testing and dicing of the integrated circuits into individual chips, the additional circuit part becomes unusable.

    Abstract: The specific application initially contemplated for the V-RAD invention is that of feed rate control of liquid chemical solutions for the purpose of municipal and industrial water treatment. In this application, a vacuum solution feed system is commonly operated by water forced through a Venturi nozzle to create a vacuum that is used to draw the liquid chemical solution into the water. In the prior art, feed rate control has been achieved by employing a variable area orifice control valve. However, in the application of liquid chemical solution injection for industrial and municipal water treatment, the variable area orifice concept has proven to be severely limited in its ability to provide stable and accurate feed rate control. The V-RAD invention provides a new and unique method of feed rate control designed to replace the variable area orifice concept and to provide a stable and accurate method of feed rate control.

    Abstract: A first and a second memory circuit are tested in parallel. It is possible to activate the memory circuits depending on a circuit select signal, and it is possible to apply a control signal to the first and second memory circuits. The control signal initiates a function in the respective memory circuit depending on the activation of the first or second memory circuit. In testing the memory circuits, the circuit select signal is applied to the first memory circuit and the inverted circuit select signal is applied to the second memory circuit, so that the function is initiated in the first or in the second memory circuit depending on the circuit select signal.
