摘要: A sensor probe. The probe includes a central loop and a plurality of peripheral loops disposed peripherally relative to the central loop. To maximize far-field suppression, current flows in a first direction through the central loop and in a second direction through each one of the plurality of peripheral loops, the first direction opposite to the second direction, and current through the central loop equals current through the plurality of peripheral loops.

摘要: A muzzle-mounted chronograph for measuring velocities of projectiles launched from firearms. The chronograph includes a sensor module and a controller. The sensor module includes a first and second coils and a device for applying a stable magnetic field to the first and second coils. The controller determines a velocity of a projectile passing by the first and second coils based on detected variations in magnetic fields at the first and second coils.

摘要: Techniques are disclosed for carrying out ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) testing on whole wafers populated with one or more buried magnetic layers. The techniques can be used to verify or troubleshoot processes for forming the buried magnetic layers, without requiring the wafer to be broken. The techniques can also be used to distinguish one magnetic layer from others in the same stack, based on a unique frequency response of that layer. One example methodology includes moving a wafer proximate to a waveguide (within 500 microns, but without shorting), energizing a DC magnetic field near the target measurement point, applying an RF input signal through the waveguide, collecting resonance spectra of the frequency response of the waveguide, and decomposing the resonance spectra into magnetic properties of the target layer. One or both of the DC magnetic field and RF input signal can be swept to generate a robust set of resonance spectra.

摘要: Methods, systems and apparatus are provided to apply a magnetic pre-conditioning to magnetic tunneling junction (MTJ) sensors and other micro-magnetic devices after fabrication but before testing, trimming or other subsequent processing. The fabricated sensor device is passed through a magnetic field that has a known direction and orientation relative to the device so that the device is placed into a known state prior to final testing and trimming. Various embodiments allow the field to be applied in situ by a permanent magnet or electromagnet as the devices are being processed by a conventional device handler or similar processing system.

摘要: A system for measuring magnetic fields produced by an integrated circuit device-under-test includes a clock generator configured to generate a clock signal, a delay circuit configured to generate a delayed clock signal having a known delay relative to the clock signal, a pulse generator configured to generate a series of pulses having a frequency corresponding to a frequency of the clock signal, the pulses of the series of pulses being offset from the clock signal by the known delay, and a sensor having a property that varies in response to a magnetic field at the sensor. A sampling circuit connected to the sensor and to the pulse generator is configured to measure the property of the sensor at times corresponding to pulses of the series of pulses, and to produce a sampling signal having, for each pulse, a first value (e.g., a logical one) when the property of the sensor indicates that the magnetic field at the sensor exceeds a threshold amount and a second value (e.g., a logical zero) when the property of the sensor indicates that the magnetic field at the sensor does not exceed the threshold amount. A digital filter is connected to the sampling circuit and configured to produce a first indicator when a number of first values in the sampling signal exceeds a predetermined amount and to produce a second indicator when a number of first values in the sampling signal does not exceed a predetermined amount. A counter connected to the digital filter is configured to increment an output signal in response to one of the first and second indicators and to decrement the output signal in response the other of the first and second indicators. A feedback loop including a digital-to-analog converter is connected to the counter and configured to produce an electrical signal proportional to the output signal, the electrical signal causing the feedback loop to produce a feedback magnetic field in proportion to the output signal, the feedback magnetic field being a component of the magnetic field at the sensor. The output signal of the counter corresponds to a magnetic field produced by the device-under-test.

摘要: A non-destructive measurement system for producing whole wafer maps of sheet Hall concentration and Hall mobility in a GaAs wafer. The wafer need only have van der Pauw patterns available for the wafer measurements to be made. The measurement system includes an automatic test prober apparatus modified to incorporate a powerful permanent magnet providing a magnetic field to produce a Hall effect in the GaAs wafer. A parametric measurement system coupled through test probes to the van der Pauw patterns is programmed to measure sheet resistivity, Hall voltage and magnetic field strength, from which are derived values of sheet Hall concentration and mobility that are stored and mapped.

摘要: A probe for sensing direction of flow of an injected current pulse along a conductor of a circuit under test is linked to an ATE, to be triggered to inject the pulse during a test sequence at a step previously found by the ATE to establish a faulty state in the circuit. Thus, the faulty one of several components connected to a circuit node can be identified. The probe itself can also be used independently, and injects an approximately triangular-waveform current pulse which has a steep rising edge and a less steep falling edge, thereby inducing a voltage pulse which is asymmetric about the zero voltage level and thus permits discrimination of the direction of current flow. The probe may have a single current injection contact disposed between the limbs of a bifurcated core for the pick-up coil.

摘要: A probe for sensing the direction of flow of an injected current pulse along a conductor of a circuit under test. The probe is linked to automatic test equipment (ATE), and is triggered to inject the pulse during a test sequence at a step previously found by the ATE to establish a faulty state in the circuit so that the faulty one of several components connected to a circuit node can be identified. The probe injects an approximately triangular-waveform current pulse which has a steep rising edge and a less steep falling edge, thereby inducing a voltage level and thus permits discrimination of the direction of current flow. To detect low level current pulses in the presence of masking noise, the output of the probe is connected to the series combination of a filter, an integrator and an A/D converter. The circuit under test is set to its faulty state, and then the probe is repeatedly operated, first with the injection of the current pulses inhibited and then with current pulses being injected. An average noise level is calculated, and then compared with the average signal level obtained while pulses are being injected to determine the direction of flow of the injected current pulses.
