Description

RF chip line loss test method, system, readable storage medium and electronic device
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of chip testing, and particularly relates to an RF chip line loss testing method, an RF chip line loss testing system, a readable storage medium and electronic equipment.
Background
Different rf wire materials and lengths of wire result in different power losses, commonly referred to as line losses. During mass production testing, the power loss of the radio frequency line must be measured, and the corresponding value is compensated during the testing, otherwise, the testing introduces a larger measurement error. However, this compensation value is usually a fixed compensation value for a specific line, which may lead to anomalies in the test value once the radio frequency line corresponding to the calibration value is not used.
Fig. 1 shows a schematic diagram of the connection relationship of the RF chip in the mass production test at present. The circuit wiring on the test board is connected with the spring needle and the SMA interface, the distance is short, and the introduced line loss is small and can be ignored.
Spring pins (pogo pins) connecting the chip pins with the circuit board are the easiest to ignore in the test loop, and are also the place where larger measurement errors are most easily introduced.
Under ideal conditions, the contact impedance between the spring needle and the chip pin is about 0.2 ohm, but along with the increase of the test times, the spring needle can be oxidized or stained, so that the contact impedance can also be changed, and the contact impedance can reach 5 ohm when serious.
In addition, the magnitude of the pressure of the handler also affects the value of the contact resistance. The power loss of the radio frequency signal introduced by different contact impedances is different, and because the contact impedance is dynamically changed, each contact of the chip with the spring pin in the test base can cause impedance change, which leads to the power loss of the radio frequency signal in each test to be dynamically changed. Therefore, the dynamic line loss value makes the traditional method of compensating the fixed value not applicable any more, and also causes a larger deviation of the test value.
In summary, how to provide a method for testing the line loss of the RF chip, which can measure the line loss value introduced by the contact impedance of the spring needle and reduce the deviation of the test value, thereby improving the accuracy of the test result, is a technical problem to be solved currently.

It should be emphasized that, in this embodiment, the above formula refers to the mean value processing of the line loss values introduced by the first spring needle and the second spring needle and the contact resistance thereof, so as to obtain the line loss value introduced by the contact resistance of each spring needle after uniformity.
Likewise, disconnecting the golden sample from the second spring pin by the RF switch described above disconnects the loop between the golden sample and the second spring pin and the loop remains disconnected until the test process for testing the actual line loss value of the loop is completed. This operation means that the golden sample is now in the power off or idle state.
The following is the line loss value test procedure of the test loop: s600, after the golden sample is disconnected from the second spring needle, under the condition that a test loop between the first spring needle and the first test instrument is kept communicated, a radio frequency signal is sent or received through a radio frequency chip to be tested, and the radio frequency signal frequency is X 2 。X 2 With the frequency X of the radio frequency signal emitted by the golden sample 1 The values of (2) may be the same or different.
Specifically, the first test instrument measures the power of the radio frequency signal sent or received by the radio frequency chip to be tested, and the first test instrument measures the power of the radio frequency signal to obtain the line loss value of the test loop.
It should be noted that the obtaining the line loss value of the test loop further includes compensating the test loop according to the obtained line loss value introduced by the contact impedance of the spring needle.
By formula PA x =PL x +L1 x +L2 x And calculating the line loss value of the test loop.
As one of typical embodiments, an ideal line loss value of the test loop is obtained before a single rf chip test begins.
The ideal line loss value of the test loop can be obtained by the following method steps: placing a radio frequency chip to be tested in the test base, wherein the first spring needle and the second spring needle touch the pin of the radio frequency chip and are in a conducting state, and the radio frequency chip is in a power off state at the moment;
the RF switch is controlled to connect the golden sample to the second pogo pin.
And controlling the golden sample to send a radio frequency signal, receiving the signal by the first test instrument, and calculating the power of the received signal. The bus loss value of the loop from the golden sample to the first test instrument at the frequency of the radio frequency signal can thus be calculated. Line loss values corresponding to the channel frequencies can be calculated in sequence.
And obtaining a line loss value introduced by the contact resistance of the spring needle, and recording the line loss value in a preset calibration file.
Controlling the RF switch off may cause the golden sample to be in a power off or idle state. The first test instrument can measure the radio frequency signal by sending or receiving the radio frequency signal with the frequency X through the radio frequency chip to be tested. Obtaining the ideal line loss value of the corresponding test loop as PA x =PL X +L1 X +L2 X Recorded in a preset calibration file. It should be emphasized that the method step of testing the ideal line loss value may refer to the testing method of the RF chip line loss test described above.
After the test of the line loss value of the test loop is completed, calculating the difference value between the line loss value of the test loop and the ideal line loss value of the test loop, triggering an alarm when the difference value is larger than a preset threshold value, and stopping the test and waiting for subsequent manual processing. Therefore, whether the line loss value of the test environment is abnormal or not can be monitored, the monitoring times and the monitoring time period can be flexibly controlled, and the additional test time is short.
In another embodiment, after the line loss value of the test loop introduced due to the contact impedance or other reasons is obtained by the steps of the method for testing the line loss of the RF chip provided by the invention, the dynamic line loss value introduced by the contact impedance of the spring needle under different radio frequency signal frequencies and the total line loss value of the test loop at the moment can be obtained similarly. When the radio frequency chip is tested, corresponding line loss values are compensated in real time, and the accuracy of subsequent measurement can be improved.
The invention can also be used for compensating the line loss value of the test loop at different temperatures.
Considering that automotive or industrial type chips typically require testing of the chip at different temperatures. For example, the vehicle gauge Grade1 Grade requires testing at three temperatures of-40 ℃,25 ℃,125 ℃. The contact resistance of the spring needle at different temperatures is obviously different, and the oxidation speed of the spring needle at high temperature is obviously faster than that at normal temperature and low temperature. The oxidation degree of the spring needle per 500 times used needle tip under the high temperature condition is close to the result of 2000 times under the normal temperature condition.
Before the test starts, the line loss values of the test loops at different ambient temperatures are measured and recorded as calibration values.
First, the program sets the test temperature of the classifier through the GPIB. After the setting is completed, whether the test environment temperature reaches the set temperature or not is inquired through GPIB. When the ambient temperature reaches the set temperature, the line loss value at the moment is measured by the testing method for testing the line loss value of the loop, and the line loss value is recorded in the corresponding temperature line loss calibration file. If the line loss value is measured at the temperature of minus 40 ℃, recording the line loss value to a calibration file Lx LT In the method, a line loss value measured at 25 ℃ is recorded to a calibration file Lx RT In the method, a 125 ℃ test line loss value is recorded to a calibration file Lx HT Is a kind of medium.
After the actual test begins, the program reads the test environment temperature at that time of the classifier through the GPIB. And reading the line loss calibration temperature of the corresponding temperature according to the test temperature at the moment. If the test temperature is 125 ℃, accessing and reading the calibration file Lx HT . And compensating the corresponding line loss value in the file into an actual test. It is also possible to set a test that triggers the line loss value of the test loop, for example, after every 200 total test times. When the test line loss value exceeds the line loss value of 0.2dB in the calibration file, an alarm is triggered, and the test is suspended. The loop line loss at 2442Mhz was 3.3dB at this point, while the loop line loss at 2442Mhz, as specified in the document, was 2.1dB at this temperature. The actual loop line loss value is 1.2dB greater than the calibration value, so that the program alarms and stops testing.
The method can compensate the line loss values of the test loops under different test environments, and avoid test errors caused by test temperature changes. Meanwhile, the scheme does not need to carry out real-time compensation, and can save test time.
The invention also provides an implementation mode, namely, the method for testing the line loss of the RF chip comprises the steps of respectively calculating the line loss values introduced by the first spring needle, the second spring needle and the contact impedance of the first spring needle.
The obtaining of the spring pin contact resistance induced line loss value further comprises obtaining a first spring pin contact resistance induced line loss value, the obtaining of the first spring pin contact resistance induced line loss value comprising the steps of,
and connecting the testing loop, and obtaining the power of the first radio frequency signal according to the first radio frequency signal sent by the golden sample by the chip to be tested.
And disconnecting the test loop, and obtaining the power of a second radio frequency signal sent by the chip to be tested according to the golden sample, wherein the power of the second radio frequency signal is the same as that of the first radio frequency signal.
A power difference is calculated between the measured power of the first radio frequency signal and the measured power of the second radio frequency signal.
And calculating the line loss value introduced by the contact resistance of the first spring needle and the line loss value introduced by the contact resistance of the second spring needle.
In the foregoing embodiment, the average value of the line loss values introduced by the contact resistances of the first spring needle and the second spring needle is processed. In practical applications, there is an unavoidable difference in contact resistance due to the possible contamination and oxidation levels or lifetime differences of the two pogo pins. In the embodiment, the line loss value introduced by the contact impedance of each spring needle is calculated, so that more accurate measurement can be realized.
The RF chip line loss test method can be used for obtaining:
(L p1 +L p2 ) X =(P1-P2) X -(L1 X +L2 X +L3 X ) (1) (X is the signal frequency)
Wherein the first spring needle has a contact resistance introducing a line loss value L p1 The second spring needle and the contact resistance of the second spring needle lead in a line loss value L p2
The DUT is configured to be in a receive state. Closing the RF switch, GU, sends a signal of power P, at which time the DUT may obtain a received power value P rg
Switching off the RF switch and transmitting power together at P by testingA signal. At this point the DUT may obtain another received power value P re
The difference in the two power values received by the DUT is due to the inconsistent line losses of the two test loops, and thus can be obtained:
(P rg -P re ) X =(L 1 +L 2 +L p1 ) X -(L 3 +L p2 ) x (2) (X is the signal frequency)
The method is characterized by comprising the following steps of (1) and (2):
Figure BDA0003807212750000101
(X is the signal frequency)
For example, at 2442Mhz, the loop is closed, the golden sample transmits a signal with p1=5 dB, and p2=2.4 dB is measured at the test instrument end. L1=0.1 dB at 2442Mhz, l2=1.9 dB, l3=0.05 dB. Then configuring the DUT in a receiving state, and transmitting a 5dB signal by the golden sample, wherein the DUT measures the corresponding power P rg =4.7 dB. The RF switch is turned off and the test instrument sends a 5dB signal, at which time the DUT measures the corresponding power P re =2.6db. L can be obtained by taking the formula (3) p1 =0.35 dB. When testing the DUT, 0.35dB is taken into compensation when calculating power.
