Testing and Fault Coverage• Testing is the process of determining whether adevice functions correctly or not− How much testing of an IC is enough?• Yield (Y) is the ratio of the number of good diesper wafer to the number of dies per wafer• Fault coverage (FC) is the measure of the abilityof a test set T to detect a given set of faults thatmay occur on the DUT− FC = (#detected faults)/(#possible faults)m01intro7.02 Cheng-Wen Wu, NTHU 14

Defect Level and Fault Coverage• Defect level (DL) is the fraction of bad partsamong the parts that pass all tests and areshipped− DL = 1 – Y**(1-FC)• FC refers to the real defect coverage (probabilitythat T detects any possible fault---in F or not)• DL is measured in terms of DPM (defects permillion), and typical values claimed are less than200 DPM, or 0.02%m01intro7.02 Cheng-Wen Wu, NTHU 15
