Abstract

See full text

A method of testing an integrated circuit die (IC) for cracks includes performing an assembly process on a wafer including multiple ICs including: lowering a tip of a first manipulator arm to contact and pick up a given IC, flipping the given IC such that a surface of the IC facing the wafer faces a different direction, and transferring the IC to a tip of a second manipulator arm, applying pressure from the second manipulator arm to the given IC such that pogo pins extending from the tip of the first manipulator arm make electrical contact with conductive areas of the IC for connection to a crack detector on the IC, and performing a conductivity test on the crack detector using the pogo pins. If the conductivity test indicates a lack of presence of a crack, then the second manipulator arm is used to continue processing of the given IC.
