Automated Curve Tracers

Robson Technologies Inc

RTI is the leading supplier of automated curve tracing to the entire semi-conductor industry. The customer list for the MultiTrace is a virtual chip makers, major OEMs and widely known private test labs.

"Curve tracing" is a widely accepted method for finding electrically damaged pins on IC chips. The MultiTrace product family provides wide a range of solutions from opens and shorts testing on small devices all the way up to Powered curve trace and Latch Up testing on very complex multi power supply devices with thousands of pins.

RTI's MT Century Curve Tracer
 

RTI has developed a cost effective and economical alternative to manual curve tracing! The MT Century tests devices with up to 96 contacts, and with 4 models available you're certain to find a system that matches your budget and your testing requirements. The MT Century performs with the same reliability, power, and software used on our larger pin count systems while using only one chassis. Like the other RTI curve tracers, the MT Century system is designed to interface with the 950 series test fixture and other dedicated fixtures.




RTI's MultiTrace Test System

The original Automatic Curve Tracer available for over 10 years. This is a desktop system capable of testing devices up to 625 pins.

It is available in a variety of sizes to meet the needs of the widest range of customers.

MultiTrace Applications

  • Unpowered Curve Tracing
    Detect Opens, Shorts and Gross Leakage
  • Powered Curve Tracing
    Detect Leakage, and Supply Current Problems.
    Measure a Variety of Useful Parameters
  • Supply Current Measurements
    Two Methods for Measuring the Supply Current.
    A 6-Bus System Can Measure Three Supplies Simultaneously.
  • Latch Up Testing: (option)
    Characterize Latch-Up Sensitivities According to the JESD 78 Specification.

 

Basic Curve Tracing Applications

  • Input-Output Transfer Functions:
    Sweep the Voltage on an Input Pin and See the Output Pin Change States.
  • Transistor Family of Curves:
    Characterize Transistors of Any Type
  • Liquid Crystal and Emission Microscopy:
    Use With a Microscope to Localize the Site of the Damage.
  • IDDQ Testing:
    Measure the Supply Current for Each State of the Device
  • Functional Vectoring Capabilities:
    Change Input Pin States According to an Input File Then Measure What you Need. Ability to Measure Output States Allows for Gross Functional Testing.
  • Kelvin 4-Wire Resistance Measurements:
    Make Precision Resistance Measurements Using This Special Software Application to Control the Switch Matrix and Collect the Data for You.

RTI's MegaTrace Automated DC Parametric Curve Tracer

This curve tracer picks up where the MultiTrace leaves off. Starting at 648 pins and going all the way to 2160 pins, the MegaTrace has enough pins to test just about any device. Now in a rolling, stand alone cart form, the tester is easy to move around and use with other instruments like emission microscopes, probe stations, and other remote testing requirements.
