The Accutron FlexBID™ Modular Burn-In Driver System
Configurable to suit your application and budget
Easy integration with any burn-in oven
Up to 384 digital channels per driver
Up to 128 analog channels
Integrated voltage and current monitoring
Integrated power supply control
Proven Burn-in Driver Technology
Used for over a decade by major semiconductor vendors, Accutron’s burn-in driver system (BID) technology is now available in a modular form – The FlexBID.
A burn-in driver system can now be configured to perfectly suit both your application and most importantly your budget.
As your burn-in needs grow FlexBID expands to meet them.
Unlike other driver systems, if your requirements become more demanding the FlexBID can expand to meet these new needs.
Build A FlexBID System To Suit Your Needs
FlexBID is modular and each system can be individually architected to meet you specific needs. The basic building blocks are:
Flex Digital Burn-In Driver Module (-D48) – 48 channel digital driver
Flex Analog Module (-A 16) – 16 channel analog driver
Example Configuration
Up to 8 digital modules can be combined to create a driver sub-system controlling 1-4 Burn-In Boards (BIBs).
Each driver sub-system provides from 48-384 synchronised digital channels and from 16-128 analog channels. The modules are mounted on a base board called a FlexBASE. FlexBASE’s are available for various oven types or we can help you customise one for your oven if it isn’t currently supported. Up to 32 driver subsystems can be controlled using the FlexBID software.
The example below shows a sub-system with 144 digital channels and 16 analog channels. In addition each module provides external power supply control and voltage and current monitoring channels. Vector download is via high
speed LAN.
Flex Digital Burn-In Driver Module (D-48)
- 48 driver channels configurable as follows:
- Dynamic stimulus and monitoring using deep pattern memory on all 48 channels.
- Sign of life on all 48 channels.
- Static I/O control and monitoring on all 48 channels.
- Drivers 0 – 10V; 100mA sink/source; programmable in groups of eight.
- Up to 512Mbits of pattern memory per channel.
- Up to 20MHz operational speed.
- Vector Development: Auto-compare to expected; Call subroutine (nestable); Repeat N times; Jumps.
- Directly control 4 external bulk power supplies from each module.
- 4 voltage/current monitoring channels.
Flex Analog Module (A-16)
- 16 channels.
- 100Hz to 20MHz.
- ±10Vpp.
- Programmable DC Offset.
- Drive Current 40 mA continuous per channel.
- Programmable sine, square or sawtooth waveform.
- 32 voltage/current monitoring channels.

Digital Vector Programming
Burn-in and test vectors are created using a simple scripting language which has the following features:
- Commonly used vector sequences embedded in subroutines.
- A repeat function for the creation of loops.
- Errors logged and counted.
