Abstract
A system including an interface and a plurality of solder joint testing modules. The interface is configured to receive test configuration data to configure each of a plurality of integrated system test (IST) modules. Each of the plurality of solder joint testing modules is configured to, based on the test configuration data, i) apply a pulse having a predetermined amplitude and width to a solder joint associated with a respective one of the plurality of IST modules, ii) monitor a resultant waveform that is generated in response to the pulse, and iii) determine an integrity of the solder joint in response to the resultant waveform. Each of the plurality of solder joint testing modules and the respective ones of the plurality of IST modules are located on a same system on chip (SOC).
