Hardware Production Test Techniques
« on: March 28, 2014, 10:03:15 pm »
Earlier today, a former colleague of mine asked me if I knew of any good books on "System-Level Production Test Techniques".

This person is an experienced IC test engineer that is transitioning into a new role as an embedded system production test engineer. They are very familiar with test concepts and want to understand system level considerations.

There are many great books on mixed-signal IC test techniques. Like me colleague, I assumed that there would be plenty equivalent books on system level production testing.

A search on Amazon has come up surprisingly short and I'm a bit stumped.

Any recommendations for a good book (or other resource - app notes, forums, blogs, etc.) on embedded system production testing would be greatly appreciated.

Topics of interest include:
  • Production Test Hardware
  • Test Jig Development
  • Bed Of Nails
  • Flying Probe
  • Boundary Scan
  • In-System ADC/DAC Test Techniques (Though these are well covered in IC Test books)
  • In-System Memory Test Techniques (Volatile and Non-Volatile)
  • In-System Interface Test Techniques (UART, Ethernet, USB, etc.)
  • In-System Peripheral Test Techniques (LEDs, Push Buttons, Switches, etc.)
  • BIST
  • Use of system processor(s) for production test purposes
  • Programming techniques for non-volatile memory for processors and FPGAs during production test (JTAG, BSCAN, etc.)

The above list is a bit of catch all but I'm keen to hear about any good resources. I've already referenced the EEVBlog DFM videos  :-+
