Wafer Probing is a step performed during semiconductor device fabrication. During probing step all individual circuits that are present on the wafer are tested for functional defects by applying special test coding to them. By doing wafer probing the company can save assembly and final test costs by rejecting the non-functional dies in the wafer. The wafer probing is performed using test equipment called a wafer prober.

Strip testing is a testing process for semiconductor devices while it still remain in lead frame strip form. The devices in lead frame strip form had first gone through the sawing process for electrical isolation of the device leads. The process flow is as below:-
- Strip Mounting
- Saw Singulation
- Strip Testing
- UV Cure
- Pick and Place & Tape and Reel
- Final Visual
- Packing
- Ship
- Max UPH 15k (1s test time@8sites)
- High parallelism (up to 64 sites)
- Auto contractor alignment and cleaning
- No package conversion kit required
- Fast setup time (<20mins)
- MTBA >2 hrs
Final testing is a testing process for semiconductor devices while it had been singulated as individual pieces. The singulated units will undergo a series of testing performed by the tester to confirm the device functionality, electrical performance, and in some sophisticated devices, it will also write data into device memory. A test handler is used to carry the singulated units to test in designated environment or temperature, and sort the complete tested device according to the result.
