  • Abstract
    Iddq testing has been widely used to complement the fault coverage of functional testing. However, continual manufacturing process advances changed the situations. Even though delta-Iddq and many enhanced Iddq testing methods have been proposed in recent years, it is still difficult to identify the faulty chips from variations of good chips by simple one-dimensional analysis. In this paper, we propose Iddq testing using multi-dimensional analysis by using Mahalanobis distance to identify functional faulty product, and we evaluate our method by product data of over 100,000 chips.
