Need for IC Testing
Let us make learners understand the need for an IC testing through the
following analogy.
Ram and Sanjay are good friends. Suppose if a teacher wants to find out who
is intelligent and who is stupid amongst them according to the strategic plan,
then, the easy way to solve this problem is Exam Test.
Suppose if Ram passes the exam, then it is sure that, Ram knows the strategy
to work.
On the other hand if Sanjay fails in the exam, then it means that, Sanjay has
not worked accordingly.
Student who works according to strategic plan will PASS in the exam.
Student who does not work according to the strategy will FAIL in the exam.
Similarly, a good IC will PASS the IC Test and on the other hand a faulty IC will
not PASS the IC test.
Types of IC Faults
Having explained the need for an IC testing, let us now discuss the
IC faults by showing some pictures on presentation slides to the
learners.

IC Testing Steps
With the help of a video clip, the IC Testing steps can be discussed.
The following link contains a video file that shows a tester used to
test the working condition of an IC.

A tester is the one, on which we can insert the device (IC) under
test. The tester in the video shows some kind of test pattern to check
the programs inside it. When IC passes all those in built test patterns,
we get output: IC PASS, it means that, our IC can be used further for
any kind of circuit formation.
When IC is not able to pass any of those in built test patterns, we get
output: IC FAIL, it means that, our IC is faulty and hence we can’t
use it further for any kind of circuit formation. And in this way we can
save our overall system testing cost.
Auto mode and Manual mode are there in tester for testing our
IC.

IC will pass the electrical test when it follows test patterns.
As we can see in this flow chart below, first we will have to find
which type of fault our IC has? Further accordingly we can
generate the test pattern to test our IC.
Now, we can find type of fault and then generate test pattern for
IC.
To begin with this activity, the learners can be divided into two groups
(columns wise). We can select one representative from each group. The
group members can collectively help their team representative to identify the
keyword written on the power point slide by giving clues in the form of its
definition, function, etc. If he/she identifies the keyword correctly, one point
can be given to the group. The group with highest point can be declared as
winners.

Debugging cost will become high if whole system will fail, so we have to test
our IC at each level.
3. See the figure and tell? How much factor of cost will IC testing take in
comparison to IC Designing?
