Abstract
We need to focus on the exact cause of failure and perform prognostics during the test and repair cycle. Technology must change for test/diagnosis. With the advent of more robust microcircuits, we need to think “outside-the-box” when it comes to testing. If we continue to perform diagnostics in the same manner, without considering other testing philosophies, we will continue to waste time and resources.
