Manufacturing Tests

Hi,



can anyone point out a book, paper or webpage where manufacturing tests are described?



By manufacturing tests I mean before packaging, when the manufacturer determines whther a chip is defective or not



Thanks

Peter,

Just out of interest, how is this done? Is a miniture bed of nails test rig used or is extra functionality designed into the wafer to allow test access to individual die?
