Referring to fig. 3, a flowchart of a CIS tester for electrical testing of a CMOS image sensor is shown, and the flowchart is applied to the CIS tester 100 shown in fig. 1.
The CIS tester initiates an electrical test to electrically test the DUT, as shown in steps 301-305. Firstly, carrying out open-short circuit test on a circuit of a DUT (device under test), and detecting whether the circuit of the DUT is open or short; if the circuit of the DUT is open or short-circuited, the DUT does not pass the electrical test, the CIS tester generates an electrical test report and sends the report to a user, and the electrical test is finished; if there is no open or short circuit in the circuit of the DUT, the CIS tester powers the DUT, step 307 is executed.
As shown in steps 307 to 311, after the CIS tester supplies power to the DUT, the CIS tester measures a voltage value and/or a current value of each pin of the DUT, and determines whether a circuit of the DUT normally operates based on the voltage value and/or the current value, if the circuit of the DUT fails, the DUT fails the electrical test, and the CIS tester generates an electrical test report and sends the report to a user, and ends the electrical test; if the circuit of the DUT is working properly and the DUT passes the electrical test, the CIS tester will also generate an electrical test report to the user, and step 313 to step 315 are performed, so that the CIS tester can perform an image test on the DUT, and the flowchart of the image test may be specifically shown in fig. 4 and will not be described herein.
It should be noted that there are various ways to determine whether the circuit of the DUT is working normally, for example: and acquiring an interval range of the working voltage and/or the working current of each pin of the DUT, wherein the interval range comprises an upper limit value and a lower limit value, if the measured voltage value and/or the measured current value of each pin of the DUT is not in the interval range, a circuit of the DUT has a fault, and otherwise, if the measured voltage value and/or the measured current value of each pin of the DUT is in the interval range, the circuit of the DUT works normally.
As described in conjunction with fig. 1, steps 301 to 315 may be performed by the CIS testing machine 100. The measurement unit 130 measures an electrical parameter of the DUT 200, the measurement unit 130 obtains the electrical parameter of the DUT 200 and transmits the electrical parameter to the electrical test module 111, and the electrical test module 111 analyzes the electrical parameter to determine whether the DUT 200 passes the electrical test. For example: the measurement unit 130 measures a current value of the DUT 200 as 0, and transmits the current value to the electrical testing module 111, and the electrical testing module 111 determines that an open circuit exists in the circuit of the DUT 200 according to the current value, thereby determining that the DUT 200 fails the electrical test.
Fig. 4 is a flowchart illustrating the CIS testing machine performing image testing on the CMOS image sensor.
As shown in steps 401 to 413, the CIS tester starts image testing and image testing is performed on the DUT. Firstly, sending an image test signal to a DUT (device under test), if a CIS (contact information System) tester does not receive a response signal fed back by the DUT, the DUT fails the image test, the CIS tester generates an image test report and sends the image test report to a user, and the image test is finished; if the DUT responds to the image test signal and sends a response signal to the CIS tester, the CIS tester starts to collect image data output by the DUT. If the CIS tester cannot acquire image data output by the DUT, the DUT fails the image test, the CIS tester generates an image test report and sends the image test report to a user, and the image test is ended; and if the image data output by the DUT can be collected, carrying out image detection on the obtained image data. For example, the image detection includes an image scene test, if the image scene test cannot be completed, the step 403 is executed again until the DUT completes the image scene test, the CIS tester generates an image test report and sends the image test report to the user, and the image test is ended.
It should be noted that there are various ways to perform the image scene test, for example: and carrying out image scene reduction on the acquired image data to obtain a test image scene, carrying out similarity contrast detection on the test image scene and the original image scene, and if the similarity of the test image scene and the original image scene reaches 90%, passing the image scene test.
It is further noted that the number of times of executing steps 403 to 411 is not limited, and this operation is performed to eliminate accidental influences, which may cause the CIS tester not to completely collect the image data sent by the DUT, so that the image scene test cannot be completed; or the image data output by the DUT is partially lost, so that the image scene test of the image data acquired by the CIS tester cannot be completed. However, if the image scene test cannot be successfully completed by performing steps 403 to 411 for a plurality of times, it means that the image scene test cannot be completed because the image function of the DUT fails instead of the image scene test cannot be completed due to accidental influences. As can be seen from the above, the maximum execution time needs to be set, and if the execution times of steps 403 to 411 are equal to or greater than the maximum execution time, the image scene test cannot be completed, the DUT fails the image test, the CIS tester generates an image test report and sends the image test report to the user, and the image test is ended.
As described in conjunction with fig. 1, steps 401 through 413 may be performed by the CIS tester 100. The main control chip 110 transmits an image test signal to enable the DUT 200 to output image data, and the image test module 113 collects the image data output by the DUT 200 and performs an image test according to the image data, thereby determining whether the DUT 200 passes the image test. For example, the image test module 113 may not collect image data output by the DUT 200 or may not receive a response signal generated by the DUT, and thus may determine that the DUT 200 fails the image test.
The above technical scheme, the utility model, realized accomplishing CMOS image sensor's electrical property test and image test on a CIS test machine, solved and need use ATE equipment and external image acquisition card combination mode to carry out the problem that test cost is high to CMOS image sensor among the correlation technique.
It should be understood that, although the steps in the flowcharts of the figures are shown in order as indicated by the arrows, the steps are not necessarily performed in order as indicated by the arrows. The steps are not performed in the exact order shown and may be performed in other orders unless otherwise indicated herein. Moreover, at least a portion of the steps in the flow chart of the figure may include multiple sub-steps or multiple stages, which are not necessarily performed at the same time, but may be performed at different times, which are not necessarily performed in sequence, but may be performed alternately or alternately with other steps or at least a portion of the sub-steps or stages of other steps.
The above are only some embodiments of the present invention, and it should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, a plurality of improvements and decorations can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these improvements and decorations should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
