Abstract

The invention provides a wafer acceptance test method. The method comprises the following steps of before performing a WAT (Wafer Acceptance Test) on a wafer by a testing machine, first, selecting a test voltage scanning section; and then, testing the wafer by using the testing machine which can record all electric parameter values in the test voltage scanning section, therefore, an electric parameter curve can be drawn by all electric parameter values in the section so as to further obtain a special electric parameter numerical value by the electric parameter curve. After test by the testing machine, when feedback electric parameters are inaccurate or the electric parameters cannot be fed back, a second test is not performed manually, so that the time and labor force are saved, and the detection efficiency is improved.

Description

But wafer acceptance test method
Technical field
The present invention relates to field of semiconductor manufacture, but relate in particular to a kind of wafer acceptance test method.
Background technology
Usually wafer is after creating, before entering follow-up cutting encapsulation, need to choose test to it, by the unit of selection test with minimum, be crystal granules sorted, with defectiveness or do not possess the upper mark of crystal grain mark of normal operation ability, and when cutting crystal wafer, these crystal grain filtered out and abandon, avoid bad crystal grain to enter encapsulation and successive process, cause for no reason waste of cost.But the selection test generally includes wafer acceptance test (WAT, Wafer Acceptance Test) and circuit is surveyed (CP, Circuit Probe).
The WAT detecting step is finished after wafer produces in earlier stage, and before wafer cutting and encapsulation, in case the mistake in being used for guaranteeing occurring in earlier stage being produced by wafer and situation that crystal grain can't be worked can detect it by WAT, in advance to save cost.Because in the project that WAT tests; many destroyed tests have been comprised; if directly apply on the crystal grain; must cause the destruction to crystal grain; the yield when thereby impact is dispatched from the factory; therefore usually can be when making crystal grain, in the space of each crystal grain and intergranule, namely Cutting Road (scribe line) is upward made test structure (test key).The WAT test is exactly by the detection to these test structures, thereby whether the serviceability of inferring element near its crystal grain is intact.Usually said WAT test parameter refers to, these elements is carried out electrical property measure resulting electrical parameter data, such as connectivity test, threshold voltage, drain saturation current etc.
Concrete, during On-Wafer Measurement WAT, some test structures of by tester table crystal column surface being chosen first apply test voltage, thereby are drawn the electrical parameter value of this test structure by tester table, and feed back the electrical parameter value by tester table.Yet, when wafer is carrying out WAT when detecting, often (such as the tester table warning etc.) can cause some of them electrical parameter value to drift about because external cause, i.e. inaccurate the or electrical parameter value that can't feedback test arrives of the electrical parameter value fed back after test of tester table.When problems occured, prior art detected by manually wafer being carried out secondary WAT usually, draw accurately electrical parameter value, and so very consuming time and consumption power is unfavorable for improving detection efficiency.
Summary of the invention
But the object of the present invention is to provide a kind of wafer acceptance test method to draw electrical parameter through one-shot measurement, avoided secondary detection, improve detection efficiency.
To achieve these goals, but the present invention proposes a kind of wafer acceptance test method, comprising:
