semi-ate-spyder 1.0.3

Spyder ate plugin for working with ATE projects

Semi-ATE

Semiconductor Automated Test Equipment

Semi-ATE is a tester- and instruments AGNOSTIC framework for Semiconductor ATE ASIC testing projects.

This means that the system is not build around a specific instrument (let's consider an ATE tester for a moment as a super instrument), it rather focuses on organizing semiconductor testing in such a way that all use- (and special) corner cases have their well known place. This enables the users (read: DE's, TCE's, TE's & PE's) to focus on the REAL work, being the writing of good, fast and stable tests. Organizing tests into test-programs and test-programs in to flows is handled by wizards, so the only code that needs writing is the actual test! (motto: Code is our enemy)

The Semi-ATE package is written purely in Python (noarch) and provides besides libraries also a plugin to the Spyder IDE.

Packages

The Semi-ATE project consists of several packages. When writing this document the following packages are maintained by the Semi-ATE project:

• semi-ate-common
• semi-ate-project-database
• semi-ate-sammy
• semi-ate-plugins
• semi-ate-testers
• semi-ate-spyder
• semi-ate-apps-common
• semi-ate-control-app
• semi-ate-master-app
• semi-ate-test-app

Installation

Installation of the packages can be achieved via conda or pip.

Installation using pip

Each package can be installed using python -m pip install <package-name>:

python -m pip install semi-ate-common
python -m pip install semi-ate-project-database
python -m pip install semi-ate-sammy
python -m pip install semi-ate-plugins
python -m pip install semi-ate-testers
python -m pip install semi-ate-spyder
python -m pip install semi-ate-apps-common
python -m pip install semi-ate-control-app
python -m pip install semi-ate-master-app
python -m pip install semi-ate-test-app

Or all at once:

python -m pip install semi-ate-common semi-ate-project-database semi-ate-sammy semi-ate-plugins semi-ate-testers semi-ate-spyder semi-ate-apps-common semi-ate-control-app semi-ate-master-app semi-ate-test-app

Installation via Conda

To be defined

The semi-ate-spyder package

This package provides some plugin for the IDE Spyder IDE. The plugin provides the possibility to create test projects in the context of semiconductor tests. The new added project type is called Semi-ATE Project. It will provide the test project structure. Further it allows to implement test programs by first defining some setups including: test-hardware, masksets, dies, packages etc.
