Motivation/Opportunity• FI methodologies currently rely on using more than one solution

with varying degrees of success and associated cost. • These solutions have active/passive components attached to most

pins which makes it difficult to perform accurate 4 quadrant testing and preventing interactive ESD. They also require some level of functionality to perform testing. 

• Our proposed PFIT system provides a pure connection between an industry standard calibrated tester and the DUT. No functionality of the DUT is required for parametric troubleshooting and bin 8 testing. 

• The expected decrease in TPT of this system is as much as 100x in some cases.

• This system is not intended to compete with existing solutions, but rather fill the testing gaps that currently exist.

Approximate Cost• The complete cost of a new system is less than $100k and includes

a calibrated National Instruments PXI Windows 7 system with an integrated rack, multiple source measurement units, multi-channel multiplexers, and Agilent power supplies that provide 16 power rails. 

• The system price also includes National Instruments LabView and Switch Executive Software as well as all cabling and circuit boards.

• Since the system uses the same interposers as the SBTS, the only long-term cost is the development of a new family board for each product (expected cost is ~$6k for design and manufacture).

• The project is being developed by a small team through collaboration with Portland State University.
