  • Abstract
    The procorrelation system (PCS) obtains a high-quality correlation between die failures on a premanufactured recorded correlation wafer and the test equipment setup for the current wafer lot. PCS greatly reduces analysis time and test cost, compared with conventional full-wafer probing and offers significant benefits for deep-submicron ICs.
