Summary of the Program Objectives and the Expected Output for the Semiconductor (SC) Test Data
Exchange Milestone Program.
Specification Development Effort Purpose Enable foundry and assembly test partners to deliver semiconductor test data to chip
designers. The purpose is to gain efficiencies by defining a common vocabulary and structure for
the transmission of test data. This standard will help reduce design development time by providing
globally standard data in a commonly understood manner.
Specification Development Effort Scope 1) Define and document requirements to support the sending of test result information to a
trading partner for the following semiconductor tests:
a. Wafer Acceptance Test Data (WAT)–
The data resulting from the testing of a sample of chips on a semiconductor wafer to determine if
chips meet engineering specifications. For a foundry environment, this test data provides the ‘go’
or ‘no go’ decision to determine if the wafer passes or fails the agreed upon wafer acceptance
criteria. This test data is limited to data produced from testing individually wired devices
/ structures built in the 'dicing channel' versus the functional / integrated die on the entire
wafer.
b. Wafer Sort Data (Wafer Probe) – The data resulting from the functional testing for each
functional / integrated die on the entire wafer . These test data results may be shared as
either reconciled information at the chip summary level or as raw test data Test
results may include parametric measures and quality sort data.
c. Module Final Test Data – The data resulting from the testing of modules to ensure
the module functions to the application specifications of the packaged module. This test also
includes parametrics and quality sorts data.
2) Define, document and align a common vocabulary for sending these three semiconductor test
data sets.
3) Validate and implement the PIP(s) with multiple partners.
The program scope DOES NOT include plans to: · Define the process of acquiring
or aggregating the test data
· Define and document the
exchange of data for the following business process areas:
- Process Data: film thickness, overlay & CD or resistivity
- Defect Data: defect classification
- FCS Logistics: wafer history/operation, tools, recipes, rework, holds, etc.
· Define a business
acknowledgement reply for the reception of the data
· Redefine or develop any
vocabularies or formats already existing in the market today that can be used by RosettaNet
