System Maintenance Affecting Yield
System maintenance is critical to maintaining high yields. Periodic
cleaning, adjustment and replacement of worn elements ensures the
best possible performance. These periodic procedures are outlined in
Maintenance Schedule on page 4-2 and should be followed closely.
Part of regular maintenance is ensuring that the system hardware is
in good working order, and that settings are accurate. To check pro-
grammer hardware see FlashCORE Programmers Diagnostics on page
4-29. For accurate settings, ensure that Reference Vision Files and
Package Files are taught accurately. To perform a Vision File check,
see (Optional) recommended check— on page 3-42. If throughput is
down, perform Get Movetimes again: see Get Movetimes/Optimize
Movetimes on page 3-51.
Process Errors
Finally, some process errors can result in reduced yield. While an
automated approach eliminates most human error during produc-
tion, errors in system setup or maintenance programs can result in
reduced yield:
Using old algorithms may affect programming yields.
PS System algorithms are updated weekly at
http://www.dataio.com/algorithms/ and are available depending
on your maintenance plan.
Selecting the wrong device part number in a job, thus using the
wrong algorithm (selected in TaskLink).
Changing programming parameters in TaskLink (sector protec-
tion, security options, verify options, continuity testing, blank
checking).
Measuring yields too infrequently, so that a drop in yield rates is
not detected until a large number of devices have failed.
Using the wrong data file (selected in TaskLink).
Socket abuse, such as digging failed devices out with sharp
instruments.
Changing to second or third vendor source. Lower quality
devices tend to produce lower yields.
(Optional) Creating a Data File from a
Master Device
The PS System can read data from a master device and create a data
file that can then be used in programming jobs.
For complete instructions on creating a data file from a master device,
see TaskLink online Help.

Printer Options
There are two main printing options with the PS System. One prints
paper labels and the other is a Laser printer by WinMark which
marks the surface of the devices. Both are described in this section,
and each has a separate Operation Manual which came with your
PS System if it has the option.
Figure 3-50: Manuals for the Label printer and the Laser printer.
(Optional) Creating a Label Printer File
If devices are to be labeled using the optional label printing system, a
label printer file must be created. Follow these steps to create a label
printer file.
1. Preparation—
1a. Open the label printing software by double-clicking the applica-
tion icon on the monitor or by navigating to the file,
MRPRT.exe,
and double-clicking it.
