Abstract
A method of detecting abnormal test signal channel of automatic test equipment firstly obtains a raw test data and then divides into the data groups according to a mapping data. The test data of DUTs in one data group are generated by the same group of probes. A yield of each data group is further estimated. A yield of a wafer is further estimated when the yield of the data group matches a first failure threshold. An abnormal test signal channel is determined when the yield of the wafer does not match a second failure threshold or the yield of the wafer matches the normal threshold. Therefore, to add the detecting method in an original test procedure of the ATE, the operator easily identifies which blocks in the failure color on the test data map are caused by the abnormal test signal channel.
