Description

晶片測試系統及方法 Chip testing system and method

本發明係關於一種晶片測試系統及方法,尤其是關於一種用於大量生產晶片之晶片測試系統及方法,特別是關於降低各測試機台間之差異性。 The invention relates to a wafer testing system and method, in particular to a wafer testing system and method for mass production of wafers, and in particular to reducing the difference between test machines.

在晶片出貨前,必須透過測試機台對每一個晶片進行測試,例如對晶片上元件之電阻值做修整以得到最佳頻率,或是用以加強晶片穩定度等。一般來說,測試機台會先經過機台廠商的校正以符合當初所保證之規格,然而,即使每一個測試機台都符合規格,不同測試機台之間仍存在差異。除此之外,測試環境的差異亦造成了晶片測試的變異,例如,當測試晶片時,以晶片載台來設置晶片並以電路板來電連接測試機台及晶片載台,在習知的測試技術中,不同的測試機台電連接不同的晶片載台及電路板以同步進行大量的晶片測試,在這樣的情況下,測試環境的不同(晶片載台及電路板)造成了晶片測試的變異。 Before the chips are shipped, each chip must be tested through the test machine, for example, to modify the resistance of the components on the chip to obtain the best frequency, or to enhance the stability of the chip. Generally speaking, the test machine will be calibrated by the machine manufacturer to meet the specifications originally guaranteed. However, even if each test machine meets the specifications, there are still differences between different test machines. In addition, the differences in the test environment also cause variations in wafer testing. For example, when testing wafers, the wafer stage is used to set the wafer and the circuit board is used to electrically connect the test machine and the wafer stage. In the technology, different test machines are electrically connected to different wafer carriers and circuit boards to simultaneously perform a large number of wafer tests. In such cases, the different test environments (wafer carriers and circuit boards) cause variations in wafer testing.

並且,在習知的晶片測試方法中,會透過標準晶片(golden chip)對不同測試機台進行校正以縮小上述機台差異,其中,標準晶片之各種特性皆符合出貨標準,測試人員在測試待測晶片前會以不同測試機台對同一個標準晶片做測試,用以校正各個機台,然而,標準晶片在不同測試 機台上會隨著不同機台而被寫入不同的參數,這將導致機台校正過程無法最優化地降低機台間的差異。 In addition, in the conventional wafer test method, different test equipments are calibrated by using a standard chip (golden chip) to reduce the difference between the above equipments. Among them, the various characteristics of the standard chip meet the shipping standards, and testers are testing Before testing the wafer, the same standard wafer will be tested with different test machines to calibrate each machine. However, the standard wafer is tested in different Different parameters will be written on the machine with different machines, which will cause the machine calibration process to not optimally reduce the differences between the machines.

請參照第2圖,其繪示根據本發明之一實施例之晶片測試方法之流程圖。本發明之晶片測試方法主要包含兩步驟(S210~S220),即步驟S210之測試機台校正階段,以及步驟S220之晶片測試階段,詳細說明如下: Please refer to FIG. 2, which illustrates a flowchart of a wafer testing method according to an embodiment of the invention. The wafer testing method of the present invention mainly includes two steps (S210-S220), namely, the test machine calibration stage of step S210, and the wafer testing stage of step S220. The detailed description is as follows:

步驟S210:在測試機台校正階段對第一晶片測試機台102進行校正,使第一晶片測試機台102與參考機台101不僅符合機台規格,兩機台間的差異更得以縮小。如前所述,每個測試機台都會先經過機台廠商的校正以符合當初保證之規格,然而,即使每一個測試機台都符合其規格,不同測試機台之間仍存在差異,故最小化機台之間的差異是必要的,根據本實施例,步驟S210可進一步以下述之步驟(S211~S214)來說明: Step S210: the first wafer testing machine 102 is calibrated in the testing machine calibration stage, so that the first wafer testing machine 102 and the reference machine 101 not only conform to the machine specifications, but also the difference between the two machines is reduced. As mentioned earlier, each test machine will be calibrated by the machine manufacturer to meet the original guaranteed specifications. However, even if each test machine meets its specifications, there are still differences between different test machines, so the minimum The difference between the chemical machines is necessary. According to this embodiment, step S210 can be further explained by the following steps (S211-S214):

步驟S211:將標準晶片100設置於第一晶片載台1022,第一晶片載台1022電連接第一電路板1021,且第一電路板1021電連接參考機台101。其連接關係如第1圖所繪示(第1圖實線)。 Step S211: The standard wafer 100 is placed on the first wafer stage 1022, the first wafer stage 1022 is electrically connected to the first circuit board 1021, and the first circuit board 1021 is electrically connected to the reference machine 101. The connection relationship is as shown in Figure 1 (solid line in Figure 1).

步驟S212:對標準晶片100進行測試,得到標準晶片100之最佳化參數,並透過參考機台101將最佳化參數寫入標準晶片100之編碼區。在此步驟 中,參考機台101對標準晶片100進行測試,並根據測試結果調整標準晶片100上元件之可調整特性,並將對應於標準晶片100之最佳化測試結果(以下稱為標準測試結果)之各種特性設定值設定為標準晶片100之最佳化參數。 Step S212: Test the standard wafer 100 to obtain the optimized parameters of the standard wafer 100, and write the optimized parameters into the coding area of the standard wafer 100 through the reference machine 101. In this step In reference, the reference machine 101 tests the standard wafer 100 and adjusts the adjustable characteristics of the components on the standard wafer 100 according to the test results, and the optimized test results corresponding to the standard wafer 100 (hereinafter referred to as standard test results) Various characteristic setting values are set as the optimized parameters of the standard wafer 100.

步驟S213:將標準晶片100、第一晶片載台1022以及第一電路板1021改以電連接於第一晶片測試機台102。其連接關係如第1圖所繪示(第1圖虛線)。 Step S213: The standard wafer 100, the first wafer stage 1022 and the first circuit board 1021 are changed to be electrically connected to the first wafer testing machine 102. The connection relationship is as shown in Figure 1 (dotted line in Figure 1).

步驟S214:基於最佳化參數,於第一晶片測試機台102上對標準晶片100進行測試以得到第一測試結果。在此步驟中,標準晶片100之最佳化參數係步驟S212中所得之最佳化參數且維持不變,其中,最佳化參數可以是在執行步驟S212之後透過參考機台101寫入標準晶片100之編碼區(未繪示),此編碼區對於第一晶片測試機台102而言是唯讀的(read-only);或者根據本發明一實施例,最佳化參數可以是在執行步驟S212之後透過參考機台101儲存於遠端伺服器、可攜式存取裝置或電腦,上述裝置中的任一種再將最佳化參數輸入第一晶片測試機台102;或者根據本發明另一實施例,最佳化參數可以是在執行步驟S214之前透過測試人員輸入第一晶片測試機台102。基於最佳化參數,第一晶片測試機台102直接對標準晶片100進行測試,並得到第一測試結果,此第一測試結果與上述標準測試結果進行比較,若第一測試結果與標準測試結果之間的差異符合預設規格,則代表第一晶片測試機台102完成測試機台校正階段,即最優化地降低第一晶片測試機台102與參考機台101之間的機台差異,在下述對待測晶片進行測試的階段中,由於第一晶片測試機台102與參考機台101之間的差異已降低,第一晶片測試機台102與參考機台101得以同時進行晶片測試以提升產量。若第一測試結果與標準測試結果之間的差異不符合預設規格,則代表必須 進一步對第一晶片測試機台102進行調機,直到第一晶片測試機台102完成此測試機台校正階段。 Step S214: Based on the optimized parameters, the standard wafer 100 is tested on the first wafer testing machine 102 to obtain a first test result. In this step, the optimized parameters of the standard wafer 100 are the optimized parameters obtained in step S212 and remain unchanged, wherein the optimized parameters may be written into the standard wafer through the reference machine 101 after performing step S212 100 coding region (not shown), this coding region is read-only for the first wafer testing machine 102; or according to an embodiment of the present invention, the optimization parameter may be in the execution step After S212, it is stored in a remote server, a portable access device or a computer through the reference machine 101, and any one of the above-mentioned devices then inputs the optimized parameters into the first chip testing machine 102; or another according to the present invention In an embodiment, the optimization parameter may be input by the tester to the first wafer testing machine 102 before performing step S214. Based on the optimized parameters, the first wafer testing machine 102 directly tests the standard wafer 100 and obtains the first test result. This first test result is compared with the above-mentioned standard test result. If the first test result and the standard test result If the difference between them meets the preset specifications, it means that the first wafer test machine 102 has completed the test machine calibration phase, that is, the difference between the first wafer test machine 102 and the reference machine 101 is optimally reduced. In the stage of testing the wafer to be tested, since the difference between the first wafer testing machine 102 and the reference machine 101 has been reduced, the first wafer testing machine 102 and the reference machine 101 can simultaneously perform wafer testing to increase the yield . If the difference between the first test result and the standard test result does not meet the preset specifications, the representative must The first wafer test machine 102 is further adjusted until the first wafer test machine 102 completes the test machine calibration stage.

本發明相較於習知技術之差異主要在於:在不同的晶片測試機台(參考機台以及第一晶片測試機台)測試標準晶片時,係基於同樣的最佳化參數及同一組晶片載台及電路板,而不是如習知技術於第一晶片測試機台上以標準晶片的另一組最佳化參數來測試標準晶片,本發明所揭露的技術特徵係固定最佳化參數,再根據標準晶片於不同的晶片測試機台得到的不同測試結果來調整機台,直到不同的晶片測試機台能得到符合預設規格的測試結果。 The difference between the present invention and the conventional technology mainly lies in that: when testing standard wafers on different wafer testing machines (reference machine and first wafer testing machine), it is based on the same optimized parameters and the same set of wafer load Instead of testing the standard wafer with another set of optimized parameters of the standard wafer on the first wafer testing machine as in the conventional technology, the technical feature disclosed in the present invention is to fix the optimized parameters, and then The machine is adjusted according to the different test results obtained by the standard wafer on different wafer test machines until different wafer test machines can obtain test results that meet the preset specifications.

當第一晶片測試機台102在測試機台校正階段完成校正,即可進入晶片測試階段對待測晶片進行測試(步驟S220),步驟S220可進一步以下述之步驟(S221~S222)來說明: When the first wafer testing machine 102 completes the calibration in the testing machine calibration stage, it can enter the wafer testing stage to test the wafer to be tested (step S220). Step S220 can be further described by the following steps (S221~S222):

步驟S221:將待測晶片設置於第一晶片載台1022,第一晶片載台1022電連接第一電路板1021,並將第一電路板1021電連接完成測試機台校正階段之第一晶片測試機台102。 Step S221: the wafer to be tested is set on the first wafer stage 1022, the first wafer stage 1022 is electrically connected to the first circuit board 1021, and the first circuit board 1021 is electrically connected to complete the first wafer test in the calibration stage of the testing machine Machine 102.

步驟S222:於第一晶片測試機台102上對待測晶片進行測試。 Step S222: Test the wafer to be tested on the first wafer testing machine 102.

當需要大量測試晶片時,可在更多的測試機台上重複上述的晶片測試方法,降低多個晶片測試機台間的差異。 When a large number of wafers need to be tested, the above wafer testing method can be repeated on more test machines to reduce the differences between multiple wafer test machines.

根據本發明所揭露之晶片測試系統及方法係基於標準晶片之同一組最佳化參數來進行不同的晶片測試機台的校正,並以同一組電路板及晶片載台進行校正以減少量測變異,其相較於習知技術能夠更優化地降低機台之間的差異,進一步提升了出貨晶片之間的一致性。 The wafer testing system and method disclosed according to the present invention are based on the same set of optimized parameters of standard wafers to calibrate different wafer testing machines, and are calibrated with the same set of circuit boards and wafer carriers to reduce measurement variation Compared with the conventional technology, it can more optimally reduce the difference between the machines, and further improve the consistency of the shipped chips.
