Abstract
A configurable integrated test (CIT) model has been developed for GaAs MMIC (monolithic microwave integrated circuit) manufacturing control. The optimal process/test strategy of a MMIC in the production phase can be predicted from this model. A method using an optimization concept is demonstrated for calculating parameters of the CIT model from process/test history. This method can be used to estimate realistic screening probabilities and hence to predict optimal test strategy accurately. The method is described, and examples of its use are presented.<>
