초록

In this paper, we introduce the novel idea to improve parallel test efficiency of semiconductor test. The idea includes the test interface card consisting of NoC structure able to transmitting test data regardless of ATE speed. We called the scheme "Multi-Clock" mode. In the proposed mode, because NoC can spread over the test data in various rates, many semiconductors are tested in the same time. We confirm the proposed idea will be promising through a FPGA board test and it is important to find a saturation point of the Multi-Clock mode due to the number of test chips and ATE channels.
