Abstract
A method for electrostatic discharge (ESD) testing and analysis includes performing, by an ESD testing device, ESD testing on pins of an integrated circuit (IC) device to generate pre-stress ESD test data for each of the pins and post-stress ESD test data for each of the pins, determining, current shifts according to first data points of voltage-current (IV) curves of the pre-stress ESD test data corresponding to the IC device pins and to second data points of IV curves of the post-stress ESD test data corresponding to the respective pins of the IC device, assigning, by the device, a test result classification for each of the pins according to a relationship between a test threshold and the current shift for the respective pin, and displaying, by a workstation, a visually coded map of the IC device indicating the test result classification for each of the pins.
