Abstract

A test system has ovens configured to hold devices under test (DUTs), DUT switches, each connected to the DUTs in an oven, splitters, each splitter connected to a DUT switch, an instrument switch connected to one output of each splitter, the other output of each splitter connected to a test instrument, and one or more processors to control the instrument switch to select one of the DUT switches connected to an oven, control the selected DUT switch to connect each DUT in the oven to a channel of the test and measurement instrument, use machine learning to tune the DUT to a set of parameters until the DUT passes or fails, repeat the connecting, tuning, and testing of each DUT until all DUTs in an oven have been tested, and repeat the selection and control of the DUT switches until each DUT in each oven has been tuned and tested.
