ATS ActivATE™ Test Management Software
Easily create and run robust test programs in semiconductor automated test systems with ActivATE™ test management software. Designed by test engineers for test engineers, ActivATE™ tames automated test complexities with elegant simplicity.
Product Information
ActivATE™ is a powerful framework comprised of an integrated development environment (IDE), a test sequencer, and a device manager. Test engineers can rapidly create and deploy test programs using standard production languages. Ship new products faster than ever before with this all-in-one test executive software, where you can run up to 36 programs simultaneously and independently to identify defects, streamline your operations, and reduce your cost of test.
For nearly 20 years, leading semiconductor companies have trusted ActivATE™ to verify the performance of billions of semiconductor devices worldwide.
An All-In-One Test Management Solution
The award-winning ActivATE™ simplifies development and execution of your test plans by serving as your single test software solution:
-
One single turnkey program used in development, engineering, and production
-
Enables testing of multiple devices and sites, simultaneously
-
Acts as an IDE, test sequencer, AND device manager
-
Runs up to 36 programs simultaneously and independently in two programming languages
-
Logs pass/fail results and drives product binning
-
Includes integrated debugger that allows the test engineer to debug and step through test code, view, and modify variables
-
Runs test programs in a GUI environment or as a background task
-
Provides excellent control over the test flow including branching, pause-on-fail, step, disable, and more
-
Test results can be formatted as PDF, HTML, Word, Text, or CSV for easy export
Easy to Use
ActivATE™ test management software is a single program, used by both test developers as well as production floor technicians. Engineers typically learn to drive ActivATE™ within a day.
-
Intuitive dashboard for viewing production at-a-glance
-
Easy to customize - quickly set up, configure and optimize complex test plans
-
Designed for the product engineer vs. software experts
-
Based on .NET for a familiar Windows-based look and feel
-
Simplified reporting outputs (i.e., STDF format) and streamline linkages to databases (e.g., data analytics)
Flexible and Extensible
The .NET architecture means ActivATE™ is easy to adapt, customize and scale.
-
Add instrument drivers and other updates
-
Quickly adapt your existing test program sets or build your own
-
Program with C, C#, Java or Python
Saves Time and Engineering Resources
ActivATE™ enables many software resources to simultaneously develop test programs, from program architects to test engineers. This parallel approach accelerates the test program development schedule, delivering a faster time to fully automated test.
In addition, the software speed and capacity are industry leading:
-
Enables up to 36 test interface units (TIUs) to execute test programs in parallel
-
Data-centric architecture manages large amounts of data in various formats
-
Combs through 1 GB per hour of data from a fully loaded tester
These savings in engineering and testing time deliver a faster time-to-volume, units-per-hour (UPH), and ultimately a reduced cost-of-test.
A Secure Solution
The ActivATE™ Test Platform software requires a login ID and Password separate from the operating system login. Set your permission levels for all 4 types of users: admin, engineer, technician and operator.
