Description

Voltage current source test circuit
Technical Field
The utility model relates to an integrated circuit tests technical field, in particular to voltage current source test circuit.
Background
In integrated circuit testing, a voltage current source (hereinafter referred to as a VI source) is required for signal excitation and voltage current measurement of a Device Under Test (hereinafter referred to as a DUT).
In order to improve the accuracy of the output voltage and the test voltage, the conventional VI source adopts a four-wire Kelvin (Kelvin) connection mode, which is a High-end current driving circuit (FH, Force High), a High-end voltage sensing circuit (SH, Sense High), a Low-end current driving circuit (FL, Force Low), and a Low-end voltage sensing circuit (SL, Sense Low). Wherein current is output (or input) from the High-side current drive circuit (FH, Force High) and is returned (or output) from the Low-side current drive circuit (FL, Force Low). The rf and the Rfl are equivalent resistances generated in the FH and FL transmission links, respectively, and a current flows through the rf and the Rfl, so that a certain voltage drop is generated in the current transmission link.
The voltage measurement is taken as the difference between the High-side voltage sensing circuit (SH, Sense High) and the Low-side voltage sensing circuit (SL, Sense Low) as the voltage difference on the DUT. The SH end and the SL end are internally provided with high-impedance input ends, and the voltage of the near end and the far end of the signal is the same. Wherein Rsh and Rsl are equivalent resistances of the transmission link at the SH end and the SL end, respectively. Because the SH end and the SL end are internally provided with high-impedance input ends, the good contact between the Rsh and the Rsl is in the magnitude below ohm, and the good contact is in the magnitude above megaohm when the contact is poor. When the contact is good, compared with the high impedance with the magnitude of more than kilomega inside the SH end and the SL end, the high impedance can be ignored, so that the pressure difference between the Rsh and the Rsl is very small and can be ignored.
Fig. 1 shows a conventional VI source architecture, which includes a SH terminal and an SL terminal connected to a differential operational amplifier OP2 in common and then connected to a CONTROL terminal, a voltage follower OP1 connected in series to the SH terminal, a voltage follower OP5 connected in series to the SL terminal, a span resistor Ri connected in series to the FL terminal, a current differential measurement OP4 connected in parallel to both terminals of the span resistor Ri, and an output power amplifier OP3 connected in series between the CONTROL terminal and the FH terminal. When the VI source framework works, the CONTROL sets the VI source mode state corresponding to the VI source mode according to the needed VI source mode, drives the output power amplifier OP3 to work, outputs the VI source mode from the FH end, carries out voltage following measurement on the voltage follower OP1 and the voltage follower OP5 to respectively obtain Vsh and Vsl, obtains a Vmeter signal through the differential operational amplifier OP2, and sends the Vmeter signal into the CONTROL for feedback and measurement; meanwhile, after a signal output from the FH end flows to the FL end through the DUT, the signal flows to the GND end through the Ri finally; and the differential amplifier OP4 measures the voltage at two ends of Ri to obtain an Imeter signal, and the Imeter signal is sent to the CONTROL for feedback and measurement.
As shown in fig. 2, when a conventional VI source architecture is used to stimulate a signal or measure voltage and current at a DUT, a four-wire kelvin connection is also typically used to subtract out the voltage difference produced by the current at the equivalent resistance of the current wire, thereby accurately measuring the voltage difference across the DUT.
However, in practical applications, the output from the VI source can reach the DUT through cables, various adapter sockets, gold fingers, or probes, and each link has a transmission resistance or a contact resistance, which causes different voltage drops. The power transmission resistor on the fixed connection circuit such as a cable is relatively stable, and the voltage drop on the power transmission resistor under a certain current is relatively fixed. In the case of a socket, particularly a gold finger or a probe, which has electrical connection due to pressure, the contact resistance is related to the contact pressure, and also related to the cleanliness and flatness of the contact surface.
Particularly, when the golden finger or the probe is used, the golden finger or the probe is respectively contacted with a plurality of devices for a plurality of times, so that the problems of reduction of the cleanliness of a contact surface, unevenness of the contact surface or reduction of contact pressure due to use abrasion exist; this problem causes the test contact resistance to become abnormally large, resulting in test abnormality. Therefore, the possible poor contact needs to be detected, once the poor contact is found, the surface of the golden finger or the probe needs to be cleaned in time, and if the surface is still abnormal, the contact pressure needs to be adjusted; if the abnormality still occurs, the gold finger or probe needs to be replaced to ensure good contact.
The conventional VI source architecture cannot accurately measure equivalent contact resistances on a current line, namely, rfc and Rflc, and the equivalent contact resistances have a great influence on the voltage drop of the current line in a high-current test, and the equivalent contact resistances may change in each test process. In each test of the VI source, if the equivalent contact resistance values can be accurately measured, whether the contact link has reliability risks (such as contact resistance change caused by oxidation, abrasion, impurities and the like of a golden finger) can be quickly judged, so that an early alarm is given according to test data, and equipment maintenance is carried out to reduce later-stage greater quality risks, such as: the problems of needle burning, device burning, VI source burning and the like are more serious especially in the tests of high power and large current.
Based on this, the conventional VI source architecture is improved, as shown in fig. 3, by adding one differential voltage measurement circuit to each of the high and low ends of the VI source based on the four-wire kelvin connection of the conventional VI source to implement additional differential voltage measurement to measure the voltage drop on the current line, thereby implementing dynamic equivalent contact resistance on the read back current line at each test.
On the basis of fig. 3, which is an improvement of the conventional VI source architecture, when the measurement connection circuit shown in fig. 4 is used to measure the contact resistance at two ends (a High end and a low end) of the DUT, the measurement current passes through the FL end of the VI source, flows through Rfl, Rflc, DUT, Rfhc, and Rfh, and finally flows into the FH end of the VI source, and through two differential operational amplifiers added at the High end and the low end, the differential voltages at the SH end, the SHx end, the SL end, and the SLx end are simultaneously tested to obtain Vdiff _ High and Vdiff _ low voltages, which are calculated with the set current to obtain the values of Rfhc and Rflc.
Although the improved VI source architecture and the measurement connection circuit thereof shown in fig. 3 and 4 can be well tested to obtain the values of rfc and Rflc, there are several problems:
first, the contact test of the improved VI source architecture has a precondition that the device is required to be matched, that is, the device has a certain current flowing capability or a certain current flowing capability in one direction, such as a protection diode or a parasitic diode of the device itself, because the current for the contact resistance test needs to flow through the device to be tested. If the device itself is abnormal, such as the protective diode or the parasitic diode is abnormal or an empty tube appears, the abnormality can be mistaken as contact abnormality, and the test parameter statistics of production and the maintenance of the golden finger are further influenced;
secondly, for some devices, the pin does not have or needs other resources to cooperate to have a certain current flowing capability or a certain unidirectional current flowing capability, for example, a Gate end of an MOSFET or an IGBT does not have a parasitic diode or other devices with other two ends, and during switching of a high-speed switch, a contact resistance of the Gate end has a great influence on a switching speed of the switch, so that the contact resistance of the Gate end needs to be accurately tested, and for example, a Collector end of a triode cannot be conducted with an Emitter end when the Gate end is not driven;
thirdly, for the contact test of some pins of such devices, the improved VI source architecture with contact resistance test is not fully applicable, and for the test of contact resistance of multiple pins of the device, when the VI source is connected, one power supply pin is usually used in parallel, such as the ground of a chip.

a relay switch K101 (close to the output port FHOut) connected in series with the FH signal line, a relay switch K102 connected in series between the FH signal line and the FHS signal line, a relay switch K107 connected in series between the FH signal line and the SL signal line, and a relay switch K108 connected in series between the FH signal line and the SLS signal line;
a relay switch K112 (close to the output port fluot) connected in series to the FL signal line, a relay switch K111 connected in series between the FL signal line and the FLs signal line, a relay switch K106 connected in series between the FL signal line and the SH signal line, and a relay switch K105 connected in series between the FL signal line and the SHs signal line.
In practical measurement applications, because some clamps have six external ports and some clamps may have only four external ports due to different types of clamps for mounting DUT devices, when the VI source is used to measure contact resistance across the DUT, the VI source can be selectively connected to the DUT using a six-wire kelvin external connection or a four-wire kelvin external connection according to the number of clamp ports, where "external connection" refers to signal wires connected between the VI source and the DUT, and "six-wire kelvin" or "four-wire kelvin" refers to the number of signal wires connected to the DUT.
When the voltage current source is connected with a DUT in a six-wire Kelvin external connection mode for contact resistance measurement, the wiring mode and the test principle are as follows:
as shown in fig. 6, when the VI source is connected to the DUT by the six-wire kelvin external connection method, the six-wire kelvin external connection method and the signal wire are defined separately for convenience of description below: FHS 'signal line connected with FHSout port and FH' signal line connected with FHOut port are connected with one end (high end) of DUT after being connected with port close to DUT, SHSout port and SHout port are respectively connected with one end of DUT through a SHS 'signal line and SH' signal line; the FLS 'signal line connected with the FLSout port and the FL' signal line connected with the FLout port are connected with the other end (low end) of the DUT after being connected with a port close to the DUT, and the SLSout port and the SLout port are also connected with the other end of the DUT through an SLS 'signal line and an SL' signal line respectively;
