Welcome to Q-Star Test.

Q-Star Test offers innovative solutions that serve to reduce product development, manufacturing and test costs, meanwhile improve product quality and manufacturability,  assure product reliability, support breakthroughs in manufacturing test of devices and allow systems and health monitoring of devices and systems. We are the world’s leading supplier of advanced high speed high resolution current measurement solutions. We provide best in class supply (IDDX) and ground (ISSX) current measurement equipment, Design for Test (DFT) and Test consulting, training and test program related engineering services, electronic prognostic (predictive diagnosis) solutions as well as electronic and PCB engineering services for the development of prototypes and small series productions.

Our products and services improve productivity, during engineering, production as well as failure analysis, reduce test time and enable to deploy a (supply/ground) current based test strategy for analog, digital and mixed-mode circuits. They successfully enable the application of current tests to all process technologies, thereby offering improved defect detection, test cost and test escape risk reduction as well as improved defect localization and identification.

TEST AND DFT RELATED SERVICES
Q-Star Test’s consulting and training services address both the design and test departments. They are  and are designed to shorten learning circles, improve productivity, to assist with the implementation of proper DFT, DFY (design for Yield) and DFM (design for manufacturing) flows, to support test optimization, test strategy improvement, implementation and application of supply-current based test strategies and IDDX-based test optimization. Our customers benefit from being able to build better products at lower costs.  Read more >>

CURRENT MEASUREMENT PRODUCTS
Q-Star Test’s measurement modules for IDDX and ISSX measurements are intelligent small state-of-the-art plug-and-play add-on instruments. They considerably reduce measurement time and offer very high measurement quality. They serve to reduce  test costs and enable the implementation and application of advanced IDDQ test schemes. They are placed on the interface that links the device under test and the (automated) Test equipment (ATE),  providing ATE independent advanced current measurement solutions, are a low cost current test methodology entry point and extend the ATE functionality. They are applicable both for probe and final test. Next to the add-on modules we are also offering solutions for on-chip measurements of quiescent, transient and analog (supply) currents and power and ground connection/continuity verification.  Read more >>

ELECTRONIC PROGNOSTICS SOLUTIONS
The electronic Prognostic (also called predictive diagnosis) solutions offered in close cooperation with Ridgetop Group Inc. enable to better instrument healthiness of electronic circuits and systems and to make reliable (remaining) lifetime predictions. These solutions are spanning hardware IP (enabling to capture health related information during both the manufacturing process and the application), software tools and advisory services enabling to better instrument healthiness and reliability of electronic circuits and systems and to make reliable (remaining) lifetime predictions.

ENGINEERING SERVICES
Our engineering services address two main themes namely the realization (design, development, prototyping, production preparation and eventual small series production) of electronic measurement solutions and other custom electronic modules or systems and the development, realization and improvement of test programs.  Read more >>

Our solutions support a total-solution test strategy and consist of measurement equipment, consulting services, application support and training courses. Q-Star Test’s customers benefit from significantly reduced test costs and efforts whilst improving testability and product quality. With Q-Star Test, you get more than just technology. Behind our solutions stands an experienced team that knows your problems, needs and expectations!
