Abstract

A method for emission testing of a semiconductor device (DUT), by mounting the DUT onto an test bench of an emission tester, the emission tester having an optical detector; electrically connecting the DUT to an electrical tester; applying electrical test signals to the DUT while keeping test parameters constant; inserting an optical filters into an optical path of the emission tester and collecting emission test signal from the optical detector; removing the filter from the optical path and collecting emission test signal from the optical detector. Comparing the images obtained with and without the filter. The filter may be shortpass to obtain emission signal, a bandpass for detecting forward bias, or longpass to obtain thermal signal.
