Abstract
An improved technique for testing semi-conductor chips having different types of circuits thereof is provided. The burn-in test includes providing test engines and/or externally applied patterns for each of the different types of circuits, stressing at high temperature and increased voltage, the semi-conductor containing both types of circuits, and running a sequence of patterns on each of said types of circuits simultaneously by the use of the engines for at least one of the types of circuits.
