System and method for testing multi-simultaneous-test reliability of ultrahigh frequency RFID (radio frequency identification) tag chip
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of chip testing, in particular to a system and a method for testing multi-simultaneous-testing reliability of an ultrahigh frequency RFID (radio frequency identification) tag chip.
Background
In order to ensure that the chip can complete the specified functions within the specified time under the specified conditions, namely the chip reliability meets the design requirements, the chip is required to be tested and verified for reliability performance according to the design requirements and the related reliability test standards. In order to verify the working life performance of the ultrahigh frequency RFID tag chip, JEDEC STANDARD (JESD47) requires a high temperature working life test (HTOL) to be carried out on the ultrahigh frequency RFID tag chip. The JESD47 generally specifies the test conditions of high temperature working life test (HTOL) as temperature T ≥ 125 deg.C, and voltage VCC≥VCCMAXAnd 3 lots of Lot were selected and 77 samples were taken from each Lot for 1000 hour testing.
The existing ultrahigh frequency RFID tag chip high temperature service life test adopts a near field test system (as shown in figure 1), and the system is tested by combining an upper computer 1 (with built-in control software), a reader-writer 2, a near field antenna 3, an RFID tag chip 7 and an incubator 5. In the test system, the RFID tag chip 7 is placed on the near-field antenna 3 and is placed in the incubator 5 together, and the control software of the upper computer 1 issues an instruction to control the reader-writer 2 to test the RFID tag chip 7 through the near-field antenna 3. Because the ultrahigh frequency RFID label chips 7 to be tested have mutual interference, only 10 samples can be tested at most simultaneously, and because the mutual interference of the near field antennas 3 causes that only one near field antenna 3 can be placed in the same incubator 5 at most, 24 sets of near field testing hardware resources (dozens of sets of near field testing hardware resources) are required to be tested at least at the same time to finish the high-temperature working life test of the ultrahigh frequency RFID label in one period, or the use number of the hardware resources is reduced to increase the test period. In addition, due to the material of the near-field antenna 3, the antenna cannot work in an environment above 90 ℃, so that the near-field test method cannot meet the test requirement of the integrated circuit in the environment of 125 ℃.
According to the analysis, the reliability of the ultrahigh frequency RFID label chip has a plurality of defects by the near field test method: 1. the test period is long; 2. the demand of test resources is overlarge; 3. the test temperature range does not meet the requirements of a common test interval.
