Abstract
Disclosed is a method for fabricating devices so that several devices at a time can be tested and sorted. The devices are placed in a carrier so that each device occupies a discrete position. The carrier includes an identification marker, and each device is identified by its position in the carrier. The carrier is sent to multiple assembly and/or testing stations, and data for each device is collected and stored in a central data base according to its position in the carrier. Each device may then be sorted according to the collected data and its position in the carrier.
